A decentralized autonomous superorganization (DAS) is a collection of dependent DAOs which collaborate to serve a common goal. Under DGF this means that a DAS is a single group that has members with multiple different REP token types, each of which serve a different purpose necessary to the functioning of the DAS. A DAS which contains the architecture necessary to support the basic P2P functions to perform all functions necessary to interact with the public is called a primary DAS.

The term "superorganization" was chosen in analogy with the concept of a superorganism. Some DAOs can rely on external DAOs to provide the services necessary for its functioning, such as oracles or software development. But when a DAO internalizes these functions and has multiple separate types of expertise devoted to a single common purpose, it becomes a super-DAO, or a DAS. In this case the sub-DAOs within the DAS would not be viable[1] without the relationship with the other sub-DAOs of the DAS. Such sub-DAOs are called complements.

A DAS is analogous to a beehive, where bees of the same species differentiate themselves into multiple types: workers, drones, or queens. These separate types perform specialized jobs. No single type could survive alone.

Primary DAS[edit | edit source]

A DAS which is not dependent on external DAOs is called a primary DAS (pDAS). A pDAS is therefore integrated with multiple independently governed REP tokens which independently govern the following complements:

  • Work DAO (REP)
    • Oracle DAO (oREP)
    • Arbitration DAO (arbREP)
  • Block producer DAO (bpREP)
  • Stable coin DAO (scREP)
    • Decentralized Exchange
  • Developer DAO (dREP)
  • Governance DAO (gREP)

A primary DAS is capable of running and updating its own P2P software, and generates its own currency, which interfaces with outside currencies through its own exchange. It can handle its own disputes and is not dependent on outside oracles for its market information.

In general, a DAS may have more or less internal institutions than a primary DAS.
