Ava Labs x CBER Ep 12: Beyond the Foundation Model: DUNAs and BORGs
This episode examines the central role nonprofit foundations have played in supporting blockchain networks. We trace their original purpose, how these entities have become a point of friction for many projects, and how regulatory and policy shifts have opened the door to alternatives. We reference two emerging models: the Decentralized Unincorporated Nonprofit Association (DUNA) and the Cybernetic Organization (BORG).
Guest: Miles Jennings (Head of Policy & General Counsel at a16z crypto)
