Stop Using 20th Century Words for 21st Century Tech, Says Gitcoin Founder

Gitcoin and Allo.Capital co-founder Kevin Owocki argues that Web3 should stop using 20th-century political language, such as socialism, communism or capitalism, and instead design new governance models for DAOs. He says AI and crypto open far more design space than past ideologies, and he points to "cluster matching," a mechanism that algorithmically dampens the influence of coordinated voting blocs. Allo.Capital co-founder and Gitcoin Executive Director Rena O'Brien dismisses ideals like "one token, one vote" as dumb and says the priority is shipping, since Ethereum's tools are broken. Owocki argues that DAOs are still young and will mature over time, like corporations.
