Not exactly. I'm really interested in getting us closer to supporting DAC/DAOs, but I don't think we're ready yet. I think the first digital organisms that will "live" on the internet will be (are) much simpler. In fact, one of the early conversations I had around IPFS/Filecoin is that purely cryptocurrency-operated infrastructure (storage, bandwidth, and computation) are necessary to get to truly autonomous agents living on the internet. For now, I'm building a plain old company focused on evolving internet protocols. To be accurate, "the Filecoin network" and "the organization developing the Filecoin protocol + software" are distinct, related entities, so perhaps there's a proto-DAC there too. Juan
