Behind the infinite success of my initiatives is the better question...
Where is Women's Major League Baseball?
Through a series of projects, I am bringing clarity and authority to this long-standing question.
The DAO Women's Baseball League is the inaugural league within the DAO Sports Association, and is...
'Putting the "all" in baseball using blockchain technology.'
Spearheading
these initiatives
are the DAO

I do not aim to disrupt current sports infrastructure, but rather, build upon its tradition while innovating beyond it.
This is how.
This is not about changing the game, but changing what the game stands for.
Systemic issues need
systemic change.

The DAO Sports Association acts as the brain and is responsible for decision-making and directs the way.
Athletes represent the Skin, the visible layer - the skin in the game.
Artists create Retinal Delights NFTs - the heartbeat that circulates value.
Structural Systems is the backbone. It combines the dao governance structure with the integrity of smart contracts that keeps the system upright and functioning.
Community and fans are the lungs, the breath and life-giving support.

THE POWER OF DAO
Welcome to the future of blockchain in sports.
In "The Power of DAO," Kristen Woerdeman explores the intersection of art through Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs), decentralized governance through Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs), and the precision of smart contracts. With expert insight, the book demonstrates how blockchain technology is reshaping sports governance, enhancing fan engagement, and innovating economic and financial models within the industry.
This book delves into the seismic shift initiated by blockchain technology across the sports sector, from revolutionizing fan engagement to redefining the economic foundations of the industry. Woerdeman masterfully demystifies the complex mechanics of blockchain, illustrating its capacity to foster a more inclusive, transparent, and collaborative sports world.
"The Power of DAO" is both an insightful introduction to blockchain and a practical guide for those captivated by the new age of art, sports, and tech. It offers actionable advice on engaging with NFTs and sports DAOs, transforming fans from spectators to key industry influencers. This book is an open invitation to join the forefront of a movement redefining sports.
