**DAO governance is evolving beyond simple token voting** to focus on human-centered design principles. Key areas of development include: - **Participation design** - Creating systems that encourage meaningful contributor engagement - **Social legitimacy** - Building trust and credibility within communities - **Contributor ownership** - Ensuring stakeholders have genuine influence over decisions The most successful DAOs are now **designing for humans first, tokens second**. This shift recognizes that effective governance requires more than just financial stake - it needs active community participation and social cohesion. Modern DAOs are experimenting with various governance models: - Quadratic voting systems - Delegation mechanisms - Multisig councils - Reputation-based models These approaches aim to create more inclusive and representative decision-making processes that value contribution over capital.
