Beyond Billionaires: MoonDAO and the Radical Vision of a Decentralized Space Economy
We love to hear from you. Send us your thought, comments, suggestions, love letters
What if space exploration wasn’t driven by governments or billionaires but by a decentralized community? Enter MoonDAO, an experiment in blockchain-powered space governance. In this episode, Pablo Moncada shares insights into how MoonDAO successfully crowdfunded a spaceflight, the potential of blockchain-based lunar economies, and whether decentralization can truly work in space.
Pablo also takes us through the unexpected lessons learned from attempting to buy a copy of the U.S. Constitution with a DAO and how these lessons now shape their bold vision for the Moon. This conversation is about technology, power, ownership, and the future of humanity among the stars.
Quotable Insights:
- “50 million dollars sprang up out of nowhere in a week—that’s the power of DAOs.”
- “Imagine the Moon as a blank slate. How would you design governance, ownership, and society?”
- “What happens when we build lunar infrastructure owned by the people, not corporations?”
- “We don’t need permission from governments to explore space anymore.”
