How can you deploy a DAO on a public blockchain network?

Selecting the right framework for your DAO is pivotal. Research various options then assess their features against your DAO's specific needs—be it scalability, security, flexibility, or usability. Understand the trade-offs each framework presents to make an informed decision. The chosen framework will shape your DAO's smart contracts, governance mechanisms, and user interface. Tailoring this choice to your goals ensures a robust foundation for your DAO's success.

When selecting your framework & tools you should also decide what public blockchain would you want to use for your DAO. This depends on your use case, geography and the kind of members you would be targeting. For example, if you use Ethereum as a blockchain to deploy on then the gas fee required for every vote would be very high but your DAO would be deployed on an extremely secure decentralized network. If, on the other hand, you want faster transactions and reduced gas fee you can look at Layer 2 scaling solutions like Optimism, Matic or other blockchains like Telos or Moonbeam.

Well,,,, Deploy smart contracts on chosen blockchain ??. They're DAO's brain,,,,, setting rules and functions. Use framework tools or code skills for customization. Pay network's crypto (e.g., Ether) for deployment and interaction.

You can deploy your DAO using Solidity toolchains like Hardhat, Foundry or Catapulta.sh Currently there is two main DAO governance frameworks, Aave Governance Framework, with multi-chain DAO support, and the Governor Bravo, a more simple framework for single-chain DAOs. First you need to configure all the DAO parameters, like the minimum voting threshold to pass a proposal, the differential between yes/no votes, DAO token address, and other related parameters. Them, proceed to deploy using Catapulta.sh tool to deploy the DAO smart contracts in +10 EVM networks, get automatically verified and be able to share the deployment reports with your community, to be 100% transparent with your userbase.

Token Creation: If your DAO involves a native token, create and deploy the token smart contract. This might include defining tokenomics, such as the total supply, distribution, and any other relevant parameters. Governance Tools: Integrate tools that facilitate governance, such as voting mechanisms and proposals. This allows DAO members to participate in decision-making. Right now many DAOs are using web2 tools that do not have this token gate solved, or it is solved through external APIs like Discord.

You can invite your members through various channels, such as social media, email, or word-of-mouth. You can also set the criteria and conditions for membership, such as registration, verification....

In my experience, dynamizing DAOs, a mechanism for users to join the DAO needs to be implemented. This might involve acquiring or staking tokens, depending on the DAO's rules.

I believe that launching a DAO is also about cultivating a vibrant and engaged community focused on achieving shared goals. Here are a few considerations ahead of launch day: ??Nurture Engagement: Engage members through dialogue, collaboration, and participation to build trust and improve decision-making. ??Embrace Improvement: Seek feedback, learn continuously, and adapt the DAO's structure, processes, and governance to meet evolving needs. ??Foster Transparency: Provide access to information, including finances and decision-making, and establish accountability mechanisms. ????Promote Diversity: Encourage diverse participation, perspectives, and expertise, ensuring equitable representation and valuing marginalized voices.

Well,,, inshort... 1. Smart Contract: Code DAO logic ??? 2. Blockchain: Choose public blockchain ?? 3. Compile & Deploy: Compile, deploy on mainnet ?? 4. Testnet: Test on testnet first ?? 5. Interact: Users interact via transactions ?? 6. Governance: Set up governance rules ??

There needs to be predefined ways to remove or add members in your DAO, the rules for membership should be such that they are applicable for all members
