Key Changes
On 17-Feb-2023 Maker Governance approved the Endgame proposal. This kicks off the biggest restructuring of MakerDAO since the dissolution of the Maker Foundation in June 2021.
Below are some key changes that will take place as a result of the transition.
- Ecosystem Actors
- SubDAOs
Spinning out non-core business activities
A strategic shift to Ecosystem Actors and SubDAOs, replacing traditional core units. These actors, guided by Scope Alignment Artifacts, handle essential tasks across various domains. SubDAOs, as semi-independent entities, are linked to Maker Governance, streamlining operations and fostering innovation, decentralization, and growth in the MakerDAO ecosystem.
- Core Unit
- SPF budgeting
Renewed focus on delivering results
A shift from existing Core Unit and Special Purpose Fund budgeting methods to a Project-based approach. This change improves clarity and accountability by consolidating related deliverables under projects, thus establishing distinct ownership and a more focused orientation towards achieving measurable results.
Extending the DAI brand
Strategic initiatives that leverage DAI's core strengths, such as stability and decentralization, to expand its presence and relevance in the wider cryptocurrency ecosystem.
A better voter incentive model
The improved voter incentive model utilizes MKR and NewGovToken to encourage active participation and informed decision-making within MakerDAO's governance ecosystem, enhancing decentralized governance.
