What is Polity DNO?
Polity DNO is a contractual organisation which combines the advantages of decentralised governance offered by blockchain technologies with the best ‘traditional’ governance practices. Polity DNO will be a public, permissioned, professional and project Web3 enterprise:
Public: It will be owned by its tokenholders.
Permissioned: It will apply onboarding criteria for its members to preserve integrity and comply with applicable regulations.
Professional: Polity Builders must all be suitably qualified and vetted professionals
Project: It will operate as a decentralised project management-based organisation.
