If you are a Blockchain designer why not start with correct-by design proofs? This is what "blockchain designer" usually do. They proof liveness and safety. Then they come with a collusion resistant game mechanism for DAO decision making like a prediction-market/futarchy-implementation. ... basically the Steem community has confused wild gut feeling based experimentation with actual distributed consensus design, game theory and crypto economics aka "blockchain design" 🙌.
good luck
