Global DAO 50 starts with source quality, not fake precision.
This v0 page is the first public DAO.top data product surface: a defensible seed watchlist, scoring method, source requirements, and sample analyst workflow. It is not a final ranking and it does not claim live treasury values without verified data ingestion.
The near-term product goal is clear: turn every listed DAO into a profile with official links, governance venue, treasury reference, proposal stream, risk notes, confidence, and review date.
Category, governance surface, treasury visibility, proposal activity, and source confidence.
Official links, governance venues, delegates, documents, risk notes, and correction path.
Weekly governance compression and risk queues only after sources are attached.
Verified profiles, risk briefs, Pro seats, sponsorship, and API access.
Visible proposal venue, recent governance process, active discussion surface.
Official treasury reference, Safe or explorer link, clear asset custody path.
Docs, delegates, working groups, forums, execution history, operator clarity.
Official URLs, verifiable data paths, update recency, and dispute/correction trail.

What a paid Governance Risk Brief should produce
5-DAO Governance Risk Brief
A buyer should pay only if DAO.top saves research time or surfaces risks/opportunities earlier. The brief therefore starts with verifiable sources, then compresses activity into a decision-ready view.
