<p>How do DAOs go from monolithic to modular? Julia aka Julz Rosenburg has the answer. Julz is the Co-Founder of Orca Protocol, a project trying to uncomplicate coordination by mirroring human coordination. How? One word: Pods!</p> <p>In their current state, most DAOs have coordination and hierarchical problems. However, with the help of Julz and the Orca Protocol team, this won’t always be the case.</p> <p>Why are pods essential for the future of DAOs and work? What obstacles stand in the way to achieve this future? Why aren’t you pod-pilled yet?

<p>We’re currently watching one of the the largest events in Crypto history. </p> <p>The sketchy outlook in the markets has triggered a run on the UST stablecoin, which began destabilizing in the last several weeks.</p> <p>As time progressed, the peg worsened, and it eventually rolled over into a complete crash of both the value of UST, and the native asset LUNA.</p> <p>What led to the crash? Was it a coordinated attack, or an inevitable collapse?</p> <p>What Red Flags were there ahead of time? What’s the fallout from all of this?
