It's crazy how many times I've seen someone show up as a genuinely enthusiastic member of a DAO/early web3 project's community and then wind up as part of the core team in a matter of months. Want to break into web3? Fire up discord, telegram, Discourse, etc and get involved.

Ethereum is a multi-organizational network made up of mainnet, several layer 2s, many sidechains, the beacon chain, and shards (soon). But more importantly, it is also made up of many people, projects, communities, and organisations. TL;DR - Ethereum is bigger than you think

Hey @Ukraine , using an EOA (an address controlled by a single private key) to handle ~$50M in donations is poor security practice. One mistake and it's all gone. I'd recommend upgrading to a @gnosisSafe multisig.

Why do people always want to build in secret? You miss critical early-stage feedback like this. Build in the open! People are more likely to give you feedback and collaborate than steal your idea, and your more likely to catch flaws in your thinking while it can still change.

PSA to anyone launching a new DAO. Decouple your DAO's account from the logic that controls it. Use an account that is composable with many different DAO tools so that your tooling can grow and adapt with your organisation.

One of the key value propositions of a shared execution environment (like Ethereum) is composability. This means that your product, tool, or platform doesn't need to do everything. Focus on your core competency and build so your tools play nicely with and incentivize others.

It's much easier to rotate the EOAs that control a @safe than it is to rotate assets between EOAs. If you're rotating to a new HW wallet this week, consider putting the assets into a safe controlled by your new HW wallet. That way next time you can just swap owners on the safe.
