dao5 is an experimental cryptocurrency investment fund that is in the process of converting into a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO). Upon conversion, DAO5 tokens will be issued to the investment team, advisory board, and portfolio company founders, with a portion of the general partner's assets migrating to an on-chain treasury. The primary goal is to empower portfolio founders to co-manage a treasury of strategic assets, with the organization evolving based on tokenholder governance. dao5 emphasizes five core values: incentive alignment, meritocracy, privacy (not investing in surveillance technologies), Dunbar's number (tightly held governance by aligned members), and Occam's Razor (avoiding centralization and complexity).
