Seed Club Co-Creator: 'DAOs Aren't People. It's a Network'

The CFTC should identify and serve the people it believes are responsible for Ooki DAO's alleged violations rather than the DAO itself as an entity, a community of lawyers called "LeXpunK Army" argued Monday. Jess Sloss, co-creator of the DAO Accelerator Network "Seed Club," discusses his take on the Ooki DAO case and whether DAOs are people. Plus, Sloss shares insights into the Seed Club's mission and a preview of his panel at CoinDesk's I.D.E.A.S. 2022 in New York City.
