Vanta DAO recently <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/decrypt.co\/233755\/inside-vanta-daos-path-to-decentralization\" class=\"sc-adb616fe-0 bJsyml\">released an NFT collection<\/a> that grants access to its syndicate and control over its future. Its founders believe that by turning over control of Vanta to its members, it\u2019ll be able to scale at a faster rate than if they\u2019d retained ownership themselves.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-meta-serif-pro scene:font-noto-sans scene:text-base scene:md:text-lg font-normal text-lg md:text-xl md:leading-9 tracking-px text-body gg-dark:text-neutral-100\">To become a VantaDAO member, users can buy the Vanta NFT on secondary NFT marketplaces such as OpenSea. Then, they join the Vanta Discord and verify that they\u2019re a holder. Once verified, DAO members can apply for specific roles within the DAO or just sit back and get access to the deal flow that other DAO members provide. There are several chats for members to get involved in\u2014even one focusing on meme coins for those with a higher risk tolerance.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-meta-serif-pro scene:font-noto-sans scene:text-base scene:md:text-lg font-normal text-lg md:text-xl md:leading-9 tracking-px text-body gg-dark:text-neutral-100\">Beyond the deal flow, Vanta researchers produce in-depth reports on all investments that go through the DAO. \u201cThey\u2019ll have quick bullet-point summaries and a more in-depth PowerPoint that you can use to look at specific deals,\u201d Jax told FOMO Hour.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-meta-serif-pro scene:font-noto-sans scene:text-base scene:md:text-lg font-normal text-lg md:text-xl md:leading-9 tracking-px text-body gg-dark:text-neutral-100\">There are several roles people can take on for those who want to contribute. Those who are \u201cvery in the trenches,\u201d talking to founders and consistently researching and discovering new projects, can bring deals to the table, Jax said. \u201cIf those deals actually go through, you get a portion of the revenue.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-meta-serif-pro scene:font-noto-sans scene:text-base scene:md:text-lg font-normal text-lg md:text-xl md:leading-9 tracking-px text-body gg-dark:text-neutral-100\">As Vanta decentralizes, Jax said, it will come to rely more on its members. &#8220;I am firmly a believer in decentralization,\u201d he said, \u201cbecause if you think about it, Josh and Mike, if they were to be the only owners, they would at the end of the day be kind of a bottleneck for the organization itself.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-meta-serif-pro scene:font-noto-sans scene:text-base scene:md:text-lg font-normal text-lg md:text-xl md:leading-9 tracking-px text-body gg-dark:text-neutral-100\">To avoid those bottlenecks and support Vanta&#8217;s decentralized future growth, its founders will be replaced by a council of \u201celite members\u201d who consistently bring in deals, \u201cpeople that are constantly trying to push the DAO forward,\u201d Jax said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-meta-serif-pro scene:font-noto-sans scene:text-base scene:md:text-lg font-normal text-lg md:text-xl md:leading-9 tracking-px text-body gg-dark:text-neutral-100\">Vanta has brought in a number of opportunities for members in the past, including a seed-stage investment in Portal, HyperCycle, Tars Protocol, Nakamoto Games, Andromeda and more.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-meta-serif-pro scene:font-noto-sans scene:text-base scene:md:text-lg font-normal text-lg md:text-xl md:leading-9 tracking-px text-body gg-dark:text-neutral-100\">\u201cOne of the great things about Vanta is they&#8217;re actually giving it back to the community,\u201d Jax said. \u201cThey\u2019re sitting on a $1 million-plus business, and they&#8217;re like, \u2018Hey, we&#8217;re going to turn it into a DAO and actually give it back to the NFT holders themselves.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-meta-serif-pro scene:font-noto-sans scene:text-base scene:md:text-lg
