Definition
These are the individuals involved in the process of establishing the DAO, who draft a so-called whitepaper containing the rules and objectives of the organization, which is published on the web, particularly on social media, in order to present the idea behind the entity and attract investors. The latter, if interested, can join the proposal by contributing cryptocurrencies, receiving tokens issued by the organization in return.
While, in theory, the procedure of establishing the DAO and distributing its control among those who decide to believe in the initiative appears fully democratic, it has been found in practice to be an unequal takeover phenomenon. In this sense, the founders, together with the early entrants to the system, purchase large quantities of tokens at a cost approaching zero, with the aim of subsequently increasing their price through the management of the DAO, and then trading them on the secondary market and profiting from the difference.
Lastly, the founders are responsible for opening up the open source code of the blockchain and smart contracts underlying the DAO in order to promote forms of collaboration in software development with any developers interested in this.
