# Bankless DAO is born | Weekly Recap *Author: Ryan Sean Adams* *Published: May 8, 2021* *Source: https://www.bankless.com/de/bankless-dao-is-born-weekly-recap* --- Dear Bankless Nation, Something new was born this week. This week…the [Bankless DAO](https://bankless.ghost.io/its-time-for-bankless-dao/) launched! *And I’m absolutely blown away at [what it’s accomplished](https://banklessdao.substack.com/p/banklessdao-weekly-rollup-1) in its first 4 days of life.* I don’t think crypto has seen anything quite like this. A media and culture DAO for crypto’s social layer. You’ve heard us say it 1000 times—layer 0 is people. **This is a DAO to coordinate crypto’s layer 0.** Bankless started as a newsletter, grew into a media company, and is now in the process of turning into a global movement powered by you…the Bankless community. The Bankless DAO gives internet scale to the movement. This is how we get to 1 billion people. If you’re not involved in the DAO yet don’t worry—there’ll be plenty of opportunities to participate in the weeks ahead. Stay [plugged in](https://forum.bankless.community/). Sign up for the [DAO newsletter](https://banklessdao.substack.com/p/banklessdao-weekly-rollup-1). Start contributing—you will get noticed! *Ask not what you the DAO can do for you, but what you can do for the DAO.* We’re building a bankless future one week at a time.
