The end of crypto's foundation era is here. New policy (CLARITY Act), emerging structures (DUNA), and smarter tooling (BORGs) enable better systems — better incentives, accountability, and decentralization. My new post on why it’s time to move on from foundation structures: https://a16zcrypto.com/posts/article/end-foundation-era-crypto/

Thanks again for such a deep and insightful post. I have observed that most foundations are now full of entrenched interest, but I’ve never hearted explained so fully. Looking forward to reading this a second and the third time. Excellent peace.

The weaknesses of the foundation model are well identified. However, I believe corporate structures are even more vulnerable in the face of regulatory uncertainty. What works in the U.S. today might become risky tomorrow due to sudden policy shifts. Hybrid models and jurisdictional flexibility might offer a more sustainable path toward decentralization. Of course, I am not as qualified as you in this field, but looking at the latest news (for example, the Tariffs issue), incorporating as a founder (without Smart Money support) may seem like a nightmare.
