🦁 ZooDAO

Conservation funding is fragmented, inefficient, and dominated by legacy institutions with high overhead costs. 70-80% of donated funds never reach conservation projects due to administrative costs. Meanwhile, on-the-ground conservationists struggle for resources while crypto-native donors lack transparent, verifiable ways to support conservation at scale. ZooDAO creates the coordination layer for decentralized conservation funding—enabling direct funding, transparent allocation, and measurable impact across multiple conservation domains. As the meta-DAO governing all Zoo conservation initiatives, ZooDAO allows token holders to direct capital to highest-impact projects while maintaining accountability through blockchain transparency. With $2.3 trillion in generational wealth transfer and growing crypto-philanthropy, the market opportunity for efficient, transparent conservation funding is unprecedented.
