PleasrDAO简介

成立年份	2021
发布时间	March
分类	DAO, Community, NFT

PleasrDAO 是一个由 DeFi 领导者、早期 NFT 收藏家和数字艺术家组成的团队，他们以慈善方式收购具有文化意义的作品而建立了强大而公益的声誉。自从用DAO形式购买了创始作品 pplpleasr’s Uniswap V3 NFT，DAO 已经发展并提升了其收集数字艺术使命的能力，并资助这些数字艺术代表在链上作为 NFT 纪念的重要思想、运动和事业。 PleasrDAO 开创了竞标独特作品的先例，其中许多作品具有超越加密的强大信息。

总结

PleasrDAO 是一个去中心化的自治组织，它在 Twitter 上迅速组织起来，以购买 pppleasr 的创世 NFT出圈。这部名为 x*y=k 的动画是为了庆祝 Uniswap V3 的发布而创作的，拍卖的所有收益旨在造福亚裔美国人和太平洋岛民社区以及其他少数群体——PleasrDAO 明确表示他们希望收藏。

此外，PleasrDAO 的白皮书开始成形。它代表社区、自由和权力下放。这是一个由社区建立的集体，为社区服务。虽然其早期阶段一直在收集标志性作品，但 PleasrDAO 期待着使 DAO 及其中的作品的所有权民主化。

不过，PleasrDAO 的 40 名成员在收集了他们的第一个 NFT 后并没有解散。相反，在他们的愿景和战略上加倍努力，并很快在 4 月 16 日以 2,224 ETH（约 550 万美元）的价格收集了 Edward Snowden 的 Stay Free NFT，再次引起了人们的注意。除了为其高昂的销售价格制造的新闻外，PleasrDAO 的收购还表明 DAO 有可能聚集在一起并汇集资金，以便作为一个集体拥有更高价值的 NFT。 PleasrDAO 是众多新兴 DAO 之一，利用智能合约的力量，这些 DAO 在形成分配数字所有权方式，为每个成员分配其一小部分资产。而且，作为一个集体实体，他们希望支持良好企业，并指出他们的目标是收集应该“属于人民”的 NFT。

尽管大多数成员从未见过面，其中一些还保持匿名，但 PleasrDAO 有自己的思考。 PleasrDAO 以代币的形式分配 DAO 所有权。这为每个成员提供了其资产的一小部分——两个 NFT 和国库中的基金。每个成员通过群聊参与 DAO 的治理。如果有人要退出 DAO，他们的代币将在内部进行争夺。 PleasrDAO 的首席“取悦官”贾米斯·约翰逊（Jamis Johnson）表示：“很多成员都很高兴购买它。” 贾米斯·约翰逊协调和管理 PleasrDAO 的战略；他半开玩笑的头衔是“几乎是 CEO 的角色，但更有趣”。

在购买了Snowden NFT 之后，PleasrDAO 的未来方向仍然是不确定的。但三个核心将是艺术收藏、天使投资和孵化。

基金会和PleasrDAO

2021 年 4 月 27 日，Foundation.app 采访了 PleasrDAO 的首席“取悦官”“Jamis Johnson”，了解该组织如何联合起来购买有史以来销量第四高的 NFT。

根据首席“取悦官”的说法，pppleasr 的作品被选中是因为她是最初的DeFi 艺术家，加密领域的每个人都知道她的影响力。对于 PleasrDAO 来说，围绕她的工作开展很简单，因为她在该领域享有高声誉，并将 DeFi 从模因变成了真正美丽的艺术。她还将她出售的所有收益捐赠给了 AAPI 组织，这是一种激励措施。PleasrDAO 中的每个人都从加密中受益匪浅，因此他们希望支持良好企业。

由于 PleasrDAO 的大多数成员都有编程背景，他们都认可并欣赏Snowden对该领域的贡献。拍卖会将对新闻自由基金会的捐赠与个人自由结合，这对我们来说很重要。如果您编程的时间足够长，您就会开始看到政府对个人在线自由的影响有多大——这也成为成立 PleasrDAO 的一个重要原因。

PleasrDAO and NFTs

PleasrDAO 是 DeFi 原生。而DeFi有足够多的艺术收藏家，PleasrDAO并没有试图与他们竞争。PleasrDAO有一个内部分发的代币，并且每一轮都会分发更多——最终，PleasrDAO 希望公募。考虑到细分问题，让每个人都获得一份所有权，并使用某种定价机制将其公开流通。

此外，PleasrDAO 计划制定推动整个系统向前发展的行业标准，并从技术角度展示 DAO 的可能性。最终，团队会做一些诸如展示艺术之类的事情，但他们希望更多地朝着群体智能合约的方向开始。当你得到了一个 DAO 和一个 DAO 的集合，而且是一直存在的DAO。 DAO 共享集体资产，无论是投资还是艺术投资组合，但突然之间，您可以将您的艺术作品进行细分，而这部分细分使其本身成为DAO管理，因此具有投票权。这会有很多的可能性发生。

PleasrDAO 愿景

PleasrDAO想做的事情不多，包括收集 NFT、成为天使投资人以及作为孵化器运营。该团队希望对早期项目进行天使投资，类似于 MetaCartel——但重点是 NFT项目。 PleasrDAO 成员非常有才华，其中许多是 VC、程序员和艺术家。该团队希望利用资金推动空间向前发展并支持正在这样做的团队。

PleasrDAO 也有兴趣成为那些拥有伟大而独特想法的人的孵化器平台，这些想法不一定被产品化或变成一个成熟的协议。团队希望人们可以在内部提出想法，然后将部分资金分配给他们去进行。归根结底，PleasrDAO 是将资源分配给更具探索性想法的人，以推动事情向前发展。

PleasrDAO: Distribute the ownership of the DAO in the form of tokens.

Year of Establishment	2021
Publish Time	March
Sector	DAO, Community, NFT

Brief Overview About PleasrDAO

PleasrDAO is a collective of DeFi leaders, early NFT collectors and digital artists who have built a formidable yet benevolent reputation for acquiring culturally significant pieces with a charitable twist. Since the DAO purchased its genesis piece, pplpleasr’s Uniswap V3 NFT, the DAO has evolved and elevated its mission to collect digital art that represents and funds important ideas, movements and causes that have been memorialized on-chain as NFTs. PleasrDAO has set a precedent for bidding on unique pieces, many of which have powerful messages that transcend crypto.

Project Summary

PleasrDAO is a decentralized autonomous organization that rapidly organized on Twitter in order to purchase pplpleasr’s genesis NFT. The animation, titled x*y=k, was created to celebrate the Uniswap V3 launch, and all proceeds from the auction aimed to benefit Asian American and Pacific Islander communities, among other minority groups—and PleasrDAO made it clear they wanted it in their collection.

More additionally, PleasrDAO’s thesis is starting to take form. It stands for community, freedom, and decentralization. It’s a collective built by the community, for the community. While its early stages have been collecting iconic works, PleasrDAO looks forward to democratizing ownership of the DAO and the pieces within it.

The forty members of PleasrDAO didn’t disband after collecting their first NFT, though. Instead, they doubled down on their vision and strategy, and soon turned heads again by collecting Edward Snowden’s Stay Free NFT on April 16th for 2,224 ETH (~$5.5M USD). Beyond making news for its hefty sale price, PleasrDAO’s purchase also points towards the potential for DAOs to come together and pool funds in order to own high-value NFTs as a collective. Harnessing the power of smart contracts, PleasrDAO is one of many emergent DAOs that are forming to distribute digital ownership, allocating each member a fraction of its assets. And, as a collective entity, they want to support good causes, noting that they aim to collect NFTs that should “belong to the people.”

Even though most of its members have never met, and some of them remain anonymous, PleasrDAo has a philosophy. PleasrDAO distributes the ownership of the DAO in the form of tokens. That gives every member a fraction of its assets––the two NFTs and funds in the treasury. Each member participates in the DAO’s governance through a group chat. And if someone were to exit the DAO, their token would be up for grabs internally. “A lot of members would be thrilled to buy it”, Jamis Johnson, the chief pleasing officer of PleasrDAO. He coordinates and manages the strategy of PleasrDAO; his tongue-in-cheek title is “pretty much the CEO role, but more fun.”

After buying the Snowden NFT, PleasrDAO’s future direction is still amorphous. But the three spokes of the wheel will be art collection, angel investment, and incubation.

Foundation and PleasrDAO

In April 27th, 2021 Foundation.app interviewed the PleasrDAO’s Chief Pleasing Officer “Jamis Johnson” on how the group came together to purchase the fourth highest-selling NFT of all time.

According to the Chief Pleasing Officier, the pplpleasr’s piece was selected because she is the original DeFi artist, and everyone in the crypto space knows her impact. It was simple for PleasrDAO to rally around her work because she has that long-term reputation in the space and took DeFi from memes to really beautiful art. She also donated all the proceeds from her sale to AAPI organizations, which was an incentive. Everyone in PleasrDAO has benefited greatly from crypto, so they want to support good causes.

Since most members of PleasrDAO have backgrounds in programming, all of them recognize and appreciate what Snowden contributes to the field. The auction combined a donation to the Freedom of the Press Foundation alongside the freedom of individuals, which really spoke to us. If you are programming for long enough, you start to see how much the government has affected individual freedom online–– which also made this an important cause for PleasrDAO.

PleasrDAO and NFTs

PleasrDAO is a DeFi native. There are enough art collectors out there, and PleasrDAO is not trying to compete with them. It has a token distributed internally, and will distribute more with each round–– and, eventually, PleasrDAO would like to include the public as well. Taking fractionalizing into consideration so that everybody gets a share of ownership, and using some pricing mechanism to circulate it in public.

In addition, PleasrDAO plans to define industry standards that will move the entire system forward, and show what’s possible with DAOs from a technical perspective. Eventually, the team will do things like display the art, but they want to start by going more in the direction of integrating a smart contract. You are getting a DAO and a DAO’s collection, and it’s DAOs all the way down. The DAO shares the collective assets, whether that’s an investment or an art portfolio, but then all of a sudden you can fractionalize your art and that fractional part makes it a governing DAO in itself, so there are voting shares. There so many possibilities

PleasrDAO Vision

There are few things PleasrDAo wants to do, including collecting NFTs, becoming angel investors, and operating as an incubator. The group wants to angel invest in early-stage projects, similar to MetaCartel–– but with a focus on NFTs. PleasrDAO members are extremely talented, and many of them are VCs, programmers, and artists. The group wants to utilize the treasury to push the space forward and support the teams that are doing that.

PleasrDAO is also interested in becoming an incubator for people who have greate, unique ideas that aren’t necessarily productized or turned into a full-blown protocol. The group hopes people could propose ideas in-house and then allocate some of their treasury to them. Ultimately, PleasrDAO is about allocating resources to more exploratory ideas to help push things forward.
