Townhall #063: Team Regrouping, DAO Governance Overhaul, and Token Economy Debate
About this episode
The episode discusses team updates, DAO governance overhaul, and debates on the token economy.
In this Townhall, core contributor hudsonsims opens with a team and operations update following the Hong Kong installation and recent restructuring. With Choobie moving to an advisory role and overhead cut roughly in half, the team is now running at about $40–45k/month with approximately 24 months of runway. The focus going forward is on tighter internal accounting, leaner processes, and two key protocol priorities: VP delegation to decentralize the token economy, and open-sourcing the front end with an API endpoint to allow community building on top of Botto. A DAO governance overhaul is also underway — with a first draft expected by mid-May — covering decision rights, working groups, and a governance council. The Townhall then shifts into a wide-ranging discussion with community member sync6770 touching on crypto-native visibility, the Botto Bedrock liquidity proposal, token flywheel mechanics, exchange listings, and a deeper philosophical debate around accountability, contributor incentive alignment, and the long-term mission of Botto as an autonomous artist.
