Disagreement Means a DAO Is Healthy: Curve Finance Founder

Dr. Michael Egorov, founder of Curve Finance, asserts that disagreements within a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) are a positive indicator of its vitality, suggesting that universal agreement signals apathy or lack of engagement. He cited recent governance issues within the Curve DAO regarding a $6.3 million grant proposal to Swiss Stake AG, which, after initial pushback, was revised and passed with over 80% turnout. Egorov also referenced the Aave DAO dispute over intellectual property and fees from the CoW Swap integration as another example of healthy debate. He noted that while DAOs are excellent for onchain governance, legal recognition is necessary for them to interact with the real world and potentially mitigate certain governance disputes, especially concerning offchain structures and intellectual property control.
