What can the governance models of Web3 projects teach us? Observing well-functioning DAOs and protocols reveals the clues. From decentralization of power to incentive mechanisms, from transparent decision-making to community participation—these elements are redefining the meaning of leadership. The traditional top-down approach doesn't work in the Web3 world; successful projects are practicing a new governance philosophy: giving every participant a voice and using mechanisms rather than personal charisma to drive ecosystem development. Perhaps this is what Web3 truly aims to teach us.

Sounds good, but in reality? Most DAOs are still controlled by big players.

From the on-chain data of governance proposals, is Token Weighted Voting really that perfect?

Listen, ideals are great, but what about reality? Most DAO governance is still dominated by whale players.

It sounds great, but after looking at so many DAO projects, how many truly achieve decentralization of power? Most are still controlled by major investors and founders.
