We\u2019ve built all these complex financial widgets in DeFi. But for the vast majority of people, the most visible and trusted financial institution in the world is not a broker or an exchange or a hedge fund. It\u2019s a local bank.\n\nDAOs are the native companies of Web3, but there\u2019s a marked lack of \u201csmall business DAOs\u201d. That\u2019s partly because Web3 doesn\u2019t have any financial infrastructure for them: small and medium businesses\u2014which comprise half the real economy and 99.9% of all companies\u2014aren\u2019t going to take venture capital. They\u2019re not going to start a native token. They can\u2019t afford overcollateralized loans. And grants don\u2019t solve their liquidity problems.\n\nIf we want Web3 to scale to the rest of society, then we need to support more small businesses like restaurants, dev shops, barbers, and event managers. We need more mom-and-pop DAOs.\n\nWe need a bank for DAOs.\n\nI\u2019m starting that bank. It\u2019ll give out dead simple, under- and uncollateralized loans to DAOs and small businesses willing to organize as DAOs, backed by whatever form of collateral that normal people actually have access to. And I\u2019m going to build it this week, during ETH Denver 2024.\n\nWant to learn more or help? For now, I\u2019m just sharing the working doc with a small group. But I plan to build this bank with the community, for the community. So if you have a tip or a question (or want to sign up for a loan), just sign up for the newsletter or DM me.\n\nWarmly,\nJosh\n\nJoshua Tan, Metagov & Oxford\nFebruary 25, 2024\n\n--\nP.S.
