In this episode, Jahed and Martin sit down with Luuk Weber of Kolektivo to dive into the opportunity for regenerative, non-extractive economic designs built on tokenization of natural capital assets and localist economic principles. Luuk's story starts in Curaçao where he experienced the consequences of living on an island whose currency is pegged to the dollar, and the vicissitudes that come along with it. He was among the first people experimenting in the DAO space, using his learnings to bootstrap a local currency called CuraDAI, enabling local Curaçaons to keep their economy local in times of massive inflation. In the conversation we cover how Kolektivo is working with Celo and other entities to create new economic models that value ecosystems, land, and water for their regenerative capabiltiies, and not just their extractive, priced capabilities, with an eye to building markets that can price and provide liquidity for natural assets for people to take regenerative actions. This episode will be of particular interest to folks interested in the intersection of climate, impact, and web3.

Episode 022 - Scaling Regenerative Economies with Local Currencies and New Markets in Natural Assets, with Luuk Weber of Kolektivo

"DAO to Earth" is an inquiry based project that seeks to further understand the experience of participating in a DAO, and how this new framework for organizing relates to the world we’re currently living in.  It was funded by the Genesis DAO through Alchemy (DAOstack's first DAO interface), and it is comprised of 9 interviews with Genesis members. It is hoped that this series will function as a DAO-knowledge library for current builders and future explorers of the dawn of DAOs. ---  "You know, we don’t need to start anything actually, we just need to empower the people that are doing it." In this episode we are joined by Luuk Weber, entrepreneur and net-weaver of the DAO movement in the Caribbean. In the show, he shares his experiences with community building and event organizing around blockchain and crypto in the region, leading up to the creation of the Caribbean Blockchain Network, the organizing of different events, and the launching of the CuraDAO, a community owned (and governed) social impact fund for the sustainable development and overall betterment of the Curaçao island. We also discussed what it takes to DAO in regards to profiles of people currently more likely to engage with this technology, drawing upon Luuk’s experience with onboarding, of himself and others. On that note, we also hear about his experience joining Genesis and his impressions on it technology and community. A very interesting point that Luuk brought up in this conversation is how reputation within a DAO could be better leveraged than what it currently is, especially in regards to dynamics happening outside the digital world and/or password management in collectives. And, of course, we dived deep into the experiences of CuraDAO and DAOfast Amsterdam, both of which have been co-initiated by Luuk. Since the interview, CuraDAO has launched its new website and taken steps towards its ambitious vision of catalyzing social change in the island.  *This interview was recorded on October 21st, 2019. So please take that into consideration when listening to it.*
