DAOex

name: DAOex
description: 'DAOex (DAO Exchange, product-branded "Commune") was a web3 community relationship management platform positioned
  as an all-in-one tool for understanding, engaging, and growing DAO and NFT communities. Its advertised surface covered member
  directories bridging on-chain and off-chain data, referral programs with unique member/affiliate links, quests, contests
  and bounties as rewards infrastructure, Discord-native engagement and role assignment, and payouts of tokens, NFTs or Discord
  roles on Ethereum mainnet and Polygon via an automatically provisioned Gnosis Safe, with a points-and-CSV fallback for pre-token
  communities. Surfaced as a portfolio company of multicoin-capital. As of the 2026-07-20 enrichment pass the company appears
  DEFUNCT: daoex.app no longer resolves in DNS (NXDOMAIN, no SOA), the site was a single-page Webflow marketing site last
  published 2022-09-22 and last archived 2023-03-21, and no API, developer portal, documentation, SDK, package or GitHub organization
  was ever published.'
