# Why is it needed?

DAOs encompass the true nature of blockchain and decentralisation. DAOs have the potential to revolutionise many aspects of our current lives if implemented correctly. \
InvestaDAO aims to:

**Be truly decentralised**

* Full transparency in all elements of the project.
* DAO decides the strategy and approves almost everything within the project
* No CEO/Hierarchical leadership - The vote of the community decides

**Harness the power of community**

* Building a loyal, vocal, community focusing on building and growth of the project as they hold a direct stake in financial rewards.

**Investment opportunities**

* Providing the average investor, the power to access investments and opportunities which require large capital commonly restricted to VC funds.

**Reputation Based Voting**

* Rather than let voting power be hoarded by whales, InvestaDAO will introduce an innovate model for voting. Utilising soul-bound tokens to incorporate a reputation based system which rewards users for their engagement, collaboration, activity, expertise and loyalty.
