Strider has raised $3 million to enable creators to take control of their projects through blockchain-based decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs).

The startup is creating a Web 3 platform (based on the transparent and secure digital ledger of blockchain) that lets creators use DAOs, which are a kind of substitute for a company. In this case, the DAO spreads membership and ownership of the project across both creators and the users — or players in the case of games. Strider describes it has a kind of decentralized evolution of the crowdfunding model.
