DAOs: The Underdogs and Why I Believe in Their Future
Written on
Chapter 1: The Case for DAOs
It's a common sentiment to dismiss DAOs as impractical or merely a passing trend. Many argue that the challenges they present are insurmountable. However, I remain steadfast in my commitment to this work. While I may harbor some uncertainty, my faith in the potential of DAOs remains unshaken. Here are six insightful quotes that affirm my belief in their promise.
Section 1.1: Historical Doubts
The following six quotes are drawn from High Altitude Leadership: What the World's Most Forbidding Peaks Teach Us About Success, authored by Chris Warner and Don Schminke:
- "Everything that can be invented has been invented." - Charles H. Duell, U.S. Office of Patents, 1899.
- "This 'telephone' has too many shortcomings to be seriously considered as a means of communication. The device is inherently of no value to us." - Internal memo from Western Union, 1876.
- "I think there is a world market for maybe five computers." - Thomas Watson, IBM Chairman, 1943.
- "A cookie store is a bad idea. Besides, the market research reports say America likes crispy cookies, not soft and chewy cookies like you make." - A critique of Debbi Field's plan to start Mrs. Field's Cookies.
- "The concept is interesting and well-formed, but to earn better than a 'C,' the idea must be feasible." - A Yale professor's feedback on Fred Smith's proposal for overnight delivery, which eventually led to Federal Express.
- "We don't like their sound, and guitar music is on the way out." - Decca Recording Co. rejecting the Beatles, 1962.
While quotes can be debated, they illustrate the skepticism that often surrounds innovative ideas. DAOs may be a new frontier, but just as computers and cookies had humble beginnings, so too do DAOs.
