CreatorDAO - supporting creators through a community

CreatorDAO is a decentralized community that invests in creators by providing capital, technology, and operational support.  CreatorDAO invests in creators in exchange for a percentage of their future earnings. The DAO (Decentralized Autonomous Organization) structure allows investment decisions to be crowdsourced, and contributions to the DAO such as mentorship and collaboration to be rewarded.

Emerging creators can apply to CreatorDAO, where those selected will be provided with the capital, mentorship, and technology needed to make better content and grow their audience. Creators that join the CreatorDAO will then share a percentage of their future earnings with the community treasury.  CreatorDAO is leveraging the power of the creative community in a unique way, inspiring creators to invest in each other and leveraging the power of their craft.  Having the ability to share in their peers' success incentivizes creators to collaborate and support each other, creating network effects and contributing to the overall community's body of work.

Today, the Creator economy is one of the fastest growing industries with an estimated 50M individuals identifying as creators in 2022. CreatorDAO is currently accepting applications from YouTubers for early DAO membership.

Michael Ma and Jonathan Wald are the co-founders of CreatorDAO.  CreatorDAO has raised a total of $20M in funding.
