DATA MANAGEMENT WITHIN DECENTRALIZED AUTONOMOUS ORGANIZATIONS (DAO) – DECISION MAKING AND DOCUMENT EXCHANGE
Keywords:
DAO, Decentralized Autonomous Organization, data management, decision making, document exchange, blockchain, smart contracts, on-chain voting, distributed storage system, decentralized governance.Abstract
This article analyzes data management processes within Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs), specifically focusing on decision-making and document exchange. DAOs are decentralized, blockchain-based organizations whose effective functioning depends on data transparency, security, and reliability. The study examines modern technologies including smart contracts, on-chain voting mechanisms, and distributed storage systems as foundations for data exchange and management processes. Governance models of various DAO platforms and their capabilities are analyzed, highlighting existing limitations and possible improvement directions. The research outcomes offer practical insights for enhancing DAO operations and developing new governance mechanisms.
