# kaal:claim:3782217-010

**Claim.** An oracle DAO must filter its network so that the average member is correct at least slightly more often than incorrect; once that filter holds, larger and more decentralized networks converge on the truth more quickly and more certainly.

**Type.** condition  **Support.** argued

**Holds when.**

- average member better than chance
- no systemic bias

**Source quote.**

> So an oracle DAO needs to filter its network to guarantee the average member is correct, at least slightly more than they are incorrect. Then the larger and more decentralized the network becomes, the quicker and more certainly it will converge on the truth.
