Role Call Ep 3: The Biggest Governance Mistakes DAOs Make w/Justine Humenansky (Optimism)

Role Call is a 6-part miniseries on DAOs, produced by Rehash and co-hosted by Hats Protocol.  In our third episode of Role Call, we're joined once again by special guest host, Amy Jung (Eigen Foundation), to talk to Justine (Head of Governance at Optimism Foundation) about the concept of progressive decentralization and the challenges and considerations involved in transitioning responsibilities to a DAO.  We explore topics like infrastructure readiness, measuring success, and the balance between transparency and governance, and Justine shares some insights into Optimism's approach, frameworks, and the ongoing development of their governance processes.  We also briefly discuss the importance of clear mission alignment, data-driven decision-making, and the complexities of managing power dynamics within a decentralized framework.  ⏳ Timestamps:  00:00 Intro  2:03 When is an organization ready to decentralize?  4:08 Challenges and risks in decentralization  5:56 Data-driven decision making  7:18 Frameworks and metrics for DAOs  15:24 Balancing transparency and control  19:30 Legitimacy and accountability in DAOs  27:58 Future of DAO governance  47:28 Follow Justine and co-hosts  👋 Follow us:  Diana Chen: https://x.com/ddwchen  Spencer Graham: https://x.com/spengrah  Amy Jung: https://x.com/itsamyjung  Justine: https://x.com/lalalavendr  Rehash: https://x.com/rehashweb3  Hats Protocol: https://x.com/hatsprotocol  Eigen Foundation: https://x.com/eigenfoundation  Optimism Foundation: https://x.com/optimism DISCLAIMER: The information in this video is the opinion of the speaker(s) only and is for informational purposes only.
