Governance and deployment of multichain decentralised autonomous organizations: Lessons learned from extending Uniswap v3 across chains.
Decentralised Autonomous Organisations (DAOs) are democratic entities self-organising, running, and providing services on behalf of their users through smart contracts. Certain DAOs, such as Decentralised Exchanges (DEXes), are seizing opportunities for market expansion through cross-chain deployment and integration. A Multichain DAO (MDAO) faces unique challenges for such cross-chain expansions. Compared to single-chain, MDAOs introduce additional complexity and risks to governance, deployment, and operational processes. In the current state-of-the-art, academic researchers focus on understanding single-chain DAOs, which creates a gap that we seek to extend. We study how MDAOs are extended from single- to multiple chains and seek lessons from past cross-chain deployments. This study focuses on Uniswap as the main multi-chain DAO case. Uniswap is the leading and largest DEX in the decentralised finance space. It has been deployed across 17 chains. Therefore, we sample data from the Uniswap forums to study the state of practice in MDAO deployments. Furthermore, we apply a thematic analysis in combination with root cause analysis. The results show a collection of the explicit and implicit requirements (eight in total) for cross-chain deployment, unique aspects of cross-chain expansion, and five valuable lessons learned. Our contributions include making an initial investigation to classify MDAOs and exploring the limitations of cross-chain expansion.
