Hypha DHO & DAO

Hypha is an organisation within the ecosystem that's focused on building DAO & DHO tooling, however groups are encouraged to use the tools that are best suited to their needs.
The Hypha DHO (Decentralised Human Organisation) provides communities with programmable, uncensorable, fraud-resistant, and transparent treasury and governance tools ensuring that the members remain in shared control.
Overview of DAOs/DHOs for Villages
Govern membership;
Issue unique Governance, Utility, and Payment tokens that confer various rights and abilities;
Govern pay through assigning members Quests, Roles, Badges, and more;
Create Referendums to change the protocols and maintain an immutable record of governance decisions;
Govern Policies and Circles for coordinating day-to-day operations;
Issue separate and non-transferable governance tokens from the fungible Village Tokens or NFTs to create unique forms of community governance.
And more.
Using the Hypha DHO tools groups can set up in advance the various Circles, Roles, Quests, Badges and other organizational assets that a project needs to thrive. During the crowdpooling event people across the globe could apply to fill these positions and having the organizational chart full before ending the crowdpooling campaign may be one of the prerequisites for communities seeking the highest chance of success.
An ideal "store-of-value" currency. Village tokens may be backed by the land/assets of the Village for intrinsic value and a base price.
Villages may design their own tokenomics to match their unique culture. As a default, projects may have their token be an "access token" which is consumed for each night a member stays at the Village. The token value fluctuates as the value of a night's stay fluctuates (popular projects may burn more tokens then they create. People who live there can buy or earn (by contributing to the Village) > 1 token per day to cover their housing and can provide other benefits (as each project designs what's right for them). This also creates a continual 'burn" of the token to offset new token issuance as members contribute to the Village.
An ideal medium-of-exchange and unit-of-account currency. Preferred throughout a Village for day-to-day purchases (designed to hold a stable value) so that prices can remain stable.
Each Village may design their own currency mechanics. Or chose between the default "stable" to a central bank currency (like Euro's) or "constant" which is stable to purchasing power (non-inflationary) currency designs.
Unique governance tokens where each community can design how and who makes decisions.
This is a departure from the current standard in DAOs where the "value token" and the "governance token" are the same, thus ensuring that governance is an plutocracy (governance by the wealthy).
DHO’s offer Members a structure to create new types of organisations and regional governance systems that provide:
contribution accounting for fair value distribution;
transparent, direct and evolvable governance tools (helping Members decide at scale);
the ability to more easily build the change while living the change; launch organisations within the SEEDS legal jurisdiction;
a regional governance system for Members to coordinate locally.
