What do producers with Bolt actually produce?
The first Producers Bolt will service is artists. We're focusing on artists that have a history of producing objects or performances that can be sold in addition to being outside the mainstream of arts funding. In the long term, any group of Producers you can imagine will be funded with Bolt. One of Bolt's big advantages over traditional funding sources is that Producers don't necessarily need to have a clearly defined consumer product. However, there does need to be demonstrated value in the project for the Bolt community.
I keep reading about DFO's, but I'm not sure what they are.
DFO is short for Dao Funded Organization. Essentially, DFOs receive grants from the community to perform functions for the community. One of the problems with traditional DAOs is that they attempt to fund projects directly. While this can work early on with small budgets, in the long term there needs to be a larger ecosystem around the DAO. DFOs have a clearly defined mission statement and must have a quantifiable way of measuring their achievement of said mission statement. Anyone can form a DFO; however, the community decides which DFOs to fund through the masternode system.
