Built By DAO is a decentralized, community-driven initiative designed to create equitable housing, commercial spaces, and sustainable community developments. While housing is the foundation, the DAO is committed to expanding into commercial hubs, shared resources, local businesses, and community projects that empower members and strengthen economic resilience.
This documentation provides all the tools, guidelines, and resources needed to engage, contribute, and thrive within the Built By DAO ecosystem.
Built By DAO is built on collective ownership, sustainability, and financial equity. We believe that housing should be a path to equity, not just an expense. Our decentralized model allows members to accumulate equity, participate in governance, and help shape the communities they live in.
Built By DAO is structured around three key focus areas:
Sustainability – Leveraging adaptive reuse, high-tech materials, and eco-friendly solutions for environmentally responsible development.
Equity Building – Allowing members to accumulate equity credits through rent payments and contributions to the DAO.
Community Development – Creating strong, connected, and resilient communities through housing, commercial spaces, and shared community assets.
Built By DAO operates as a decentralized collective, meaning members actively participate in shaping its future. Here’s how:
Membership & Participation – Members can contribute in various ways, from financial support to governance participation and skilled labor.
Equity-Based Rent Model – Renters earn equity as a percentage of their rent payments and can also gain additional equity through contributions.
Decentralized Governance – Decision-making happens transparently through on-chain voting and smart contract-based governance.
Property & Community Development – The DAO funds and develops housing, commercial spaces, gardens, restaurants, and shared public areas.
Earn Equity While Renting – A portion of rent goes toward equity accumulation, creating a pathway to ownership.
Flexible Living Options – Members can transfer their equity between properties within the DAO’s network.
Community Investment – Your rent contributes to collective projects that benefit all members.
Skill-Based Equity Rewards – Members can earn equity by contributing skills, labor, or expertise to the DAO.
Workforce Development – Training programs help members develop in-demand skills for construction, governance, and sustainability.
Community-Backed Development – Investments in Built By DAO directly support scalable, impact-driven real estate.
Diversified Portfolio – The DAO develops a mix of residential, commercial, and community spaces for long-term stability.
