Solana DAOs can now bug you to vote with phone calls and texts

You have no reason to miss another vote on the Management Board than calls or texts from the Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs) calling on you to vote.

The Notifi network relies on this concept, which helps to improve poor turnout in boards. Launching Solana DAOs combines popular basic methods used by the Web3 community, such as Telegram and Discording, with more traditional and hard-to-ignore alerts such as phone calls, text messages or emails. .

Notifi, sponsored by crypto-venture capital companies Race Capital and Hashed, will launch its notification service to all DAOs running the Solana Realms DAO platform on April 24.

Currently, the Telegram and Discord chat rooms are one of the most common ways DAO participants keep in touch with a project. However, Kim believes that this approach is ineffective because he says that "most users have terminated their crypto conversations due to the high volume of messages."

This makes it difficult for users to know when new proposals have been submitted at the time of voting.

Kim hopes to reverse the low turnout by allowing Realms DAO participants to choose different ways to be informed when a draft report is published. These notifications may begin with Telegram or Discord instant messages, but Kim said they could be "added" to emails, text messages, and even a phone call if they didn't answer first.

Although e-mail, SMS, and especially phone calls are not common means of communication in the Web3 world, Kim believes that they should play an important role in DAO.

In Solana DAO, there is clearly a problem with turnout. According to the DAO tracker DeepDAO, less than 1% of Solana's top three DAO holders are active members - UXDProtocol (UXP), Mango DAO (MNGO) and Serum (SRM). According to Kim, there are 500 DAO in the Realms with a collective treasury worth $ 1.5 billion. Solan Labs DAO software engineer Sebastian Bor, in a blog post from Notifi on April 24, agrees that notification services currently have no weight for DAO. He said: "Announcements are an important part of informing community members about DAO activity."

Finally, Kim said his service "will be available for all activities in the chain, including shops and airdrops, sales warnings and liquidation." For now, however, "Realms is a test ground" to see if its solution allows users to get away from their keyboard:
