<p>Delphi Labs has revealed a framework for organizations that it says would complement DAOs and address some of their shortcomings.&nbsp;</p>



<p>The so-called Cybernetic Organizations, or BORGs, would arm state-chartered entities with autonomous software, such as smart contracts and artificial intelligence (AI), the research and development division of crypto research firm Delphi Digital wrote in a blog last week.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Organizations can gradually evolve into BORGs as DAOs work out their kinks, one industry executive said, while another said BORGs could regress a system striving to be fully democratized.</p>



<p><a href="https://blockworks.co/news/the-investors-guide-to-daos">DAOs</a> are decentralized autonomous organizations in which power is typically granted to token holders who vote on various proposals. A DAO’s votes and activities are posted on a blockchain.</p>



<p>BORGs would not — unlike a DAO — be designed with full transparency, decentralization or autonomy in mind, the Delphi Labs <a href="https://delphilabs.medium.com/assimilating-the-borg-a-new-cryptolegal-framework-for-dao-adjacent-entities-569e54a43f83">blog</a> post states.&nbsp;</p>



<p>DAOs have evolved into “complex non-compliant off-chain businesses,” or have become either non-autonomous or non-decentralized, according to the firm.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Moving certain business activities to “DAO-adjacent” BORGs would provide a more compelling way to solve these issues than DAO-specific laws, according to Delphi Labs.&nbsp;</p>



<p>The fusion of on-chain contracts and adaptive AI are set to manage a range of economic activities over the next decade, such as commercial agreements and capital allocation, according to Umami Labs CEO Alex O&#8217;Donnell.</p>



<p>&#8220;The goals that DAOs have sought to achieve, so far without success, will be brought to fruition, incrementally and over time, by BORGs,” he told Blockworks. “Trustless smart contracts and artificial intelligence are destined to dramatically diminish the scope for human error in virtually every industry.”</p>



<p>But Delphi Labs asserts that BORGs would not replace DAOs, claiming rather that, “BORGs are needed so that DAOs can be DAOs and remain the supreme form of internet-native organization while other forms of blockchain-augmented organizations can experiment under their own identity.”</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The pros and cons of BORGs?</h2>



<p>Many DAOs currently are as centralized as conventional startups, O&#8217;Donnell argued. He added that the technical capabilities to effectively govern organizations without centralized human decision-makers simply do not yet exist.&nbsp;</p>



<p>BORGs can be housed within almost any type of organization, from DAOs to public companies, the Umami Labs CEO explained.&nbsp;</p>



<p>“Ultimately, what matters isn&#8217;t the label an organization adopts, but the progress it makes toward minimizing trust assumptions,” O&#8217;Donnell said. “At present, no organization can credibly claim to be a DAO, but every organization can gradually evolve into a BORG.&#8221;</p>



<p>But not all are sold on the concept of BORGs.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>



<p>While it is clear that DAOs and BORGs can coexist within a multi-entity structure, they are incompatible as a basis from which to structure one entity, said Bernhard Blaha, CEO of decentrally governed organization The People’s SCE.</p>



<p>“If a blockchain project is decentralized in its technological makeup and offers ‘community-driven’ distributed data or services, but has a corporate structure running it, then it is no different to a traditional company,” Blaha told Blockworks.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Blaha acknowledged that DAOs are a relatively new concept, and therefore continue to work out fair methods of governance and security, while dealing with a host of scalability issues. He also speculated that BORGs could push a more corporate structure that disempowers members.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>



<p>“Having a BORG operate alongside a DAO to manage people-centric blockchain projects is rather like inventing a supersonic solar-powered aircraft and then insisting that an official from the Civil Aviation Authority has to walk in front of it with a red flag,” Blaha said.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Though some entities currently resemble the design of BORGs, Delphi Labs said its framework is the first attempt to try to define them.</p>



<p>The company labels <a href="https://dao.curve.fi/emergencymembers">The Curve Emergency DAO</a> and <a href="https://docs.aave.com/governance/aave-guardians">The Aave Community Guardian</a> — multisigs that are able to halt the protocol without a DAO vote — as entities that could be defined as security BORGs, for example.</p>



<p>Delphi Digital did not immediately return a request for comment.</p>

<p>Bitcoin (BTC) experienced a mini flash crash around 2:15 PM ET today but quickly recovered.</p>



<p>Perpetual funding rates remain an important metric to keep an eye on. </p>



<p>Some industry experts believe that the volatility can be attributed to the recently approved BTC ETF.</p>



<p>The borrowing and lending space in DeFi may be large enough for AAVE, COMP and MKR to all thrive. </p>



<p>Despite recent turbulence in the NFT space, there remains a lot of catalysts for price appreciation. </p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">BTC liquidation cascade</h3>



<p>Bitcoin experienced an intense period of volatility today around 2:15 PM ET, with the BTC price falling as low as $57,653 before quickly recovering. There was a strong rally in the middle of last night from $58,000 up to nearly $62,000 right before the sell-off.</p>



<p>It appears speculators got too excited too quickly, as perpetual funding rates were racing higher as the price action traded in a range right before the sell-off. </p>



<p>&#8220;The funding rate is derived from the difference between the market price of perpetuals and the spot index it’s anchored to. Excessive buying of perps increases the spread between perp price and the spot index, causing funding to go up. Conversely, negative funding is incited by an influx of perp shorting, forcing the contract’s price to fall lower than spot prices,&#8221; <a href="https://members.delphidigital.io/reports/leverage-wipes-out-but-is-the-worst-behind-us/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">wrote</a> Ashwath Balakrishnan of Delphi Digital.</p>



<p>He continued, &#8220;For funding to fall lower, one of two things needs to happen: either existing longs get shaken out and are forced to cover, or there’s an increase in bearish sentiment prompting traders to go net short. Either way, it’s unclear whether we’ve found a local bottom yet.&#8221;</p>



<p>As seen in the following chart, open interest weighted funding rates raced higher prior to the dip in price. Unfortunately, traders began getting aggressive quickly after the correction which signals additional caution may be appropriate. </p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Are BTC ETFs to blame?</h3>



<p>Some industry experts believe that the volatility can be attributed to the recently <a href="https://cms.blockworks.co/first-bitcoin-futures-etf-nears-1b-on-first-day-of-trading/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">approved</a> BTC ETF, which is backed by leveraged positions in the form of cash-settled futures contracts. </p>



<p>Caitlin Long, 22-year Wall Street Veteran and founder of Avanti, took to Twitter to share her thoughts:</p>

<p>It is unclear if the added leverage via ETF approvals to the BTC ecosystem is to blame for the volatility in price.</p>



<p>It is worth noting, however, that the CME only accounts for roughly 20% of aggregated futures open interest albeit a growing portion. This is significant to add because the CME is where all of the futures are being traded that back the aforementioned ETFs. </p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Aave, Compound and MakerDAO battle it out for marketshare</h3>



<p>Aave (AAVE) and Compound (COMP) facilitate peer-to-peer borrowing and lending. Liquidity providers (LPs/lenders) earn interest for their services, while borrowers pay interest on top of their loans to pay the LPs. </p>



<p>MakerDAO (MKR) allows users to take out loans by locking up digital assets as collateral in return for a decentralized stablecoin, DAI. However, borrowers need to be attentive to their loan-to-collateral ratio as asset prices fluctuate in order to avoid having their collateral liquidated. </p>



<p>AAVE, COMP and MKR all compete for users&#8217; appetites to take on leverage via borrowing. However, when it comes to lending it is really just AAVE and COMP battling for market share because they have peer-to-peer ecosystems versus MKR&#8217;s collateralized debt position (CDP) model. </p>



<p>AAVE currently leads based on total valued locked (TVL) in its platform, followed by MKR at third and COMP at seventh: </p>

<p>According to the following Dune Analytics dashboard, the percentage of market participants interacting with COMP has remained consistent since mid-2020, whereas AAVE has stolen a lot of marketshare away from MKR. </p>



<p>COMP and MKR each hold a 25% market share of active addresses versus AAVE with 50%. </p>

<p>However, the picture looks a lot different when looking at the market share of loans outstanding per project. AAVE leads with a 35.7% market share, with MKR in 2nd with 34.5%, and COMP in last with 29.9%. </p>



<p>This implies that while there are fewer active addresses on MKR taking out loans, they are players with very big pockets and trust the stablecoin, Dai, is a pristine asset.</p>

<p>With roughly $80 billion of loans outstanding between the three protocols and only 3.5 million DeFi users, the total addressable market and growth run way is extremely large. Only time will tell if all three protocols can thrive side by side.</p>
