DAOs can align user and owner incentives for the metaverse. For example, consider Human-AI, platform-contributor, and meatspace-virtual space alignment.

• AI is Tech, Tech is Human, so AI is Us. A DAO wouldn’t treat an AI agent different from a human.
• Writing is the way to change the world, but the world can change writing. On the blockchain, any writing (like code) is immutably written, but not immutable to change. The revolution cannot be redacted.
• Virtual communication is becoming the mode of communication itself. Soon, it won’t matter what you originally sound or look like, or where you’re from. DAOs commodify relationships in a way that makes all of them voluntary: we want online socializing to be socializing on your terms. Web2 provides goods and services; web3 provides people and experiences.

Finally, consider Single Purpose Acquisition DAOs for global coordination. Like SPACs, funds are refunded if the funding goal isn’t met. This way, countries can soft pledge contributions toward mitigating climate change or development of weapons of mass destruction, while having a way out if a collaboration goal isn’t reached.
