**2020**

- [3652481-007](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/3652481-007) [condition/asserted] -- The longevity of a DAO depends on its ability to maintain the fluidity and decentralized order that existed in the DAO's initial stages.
  > The longevity of DAOs depends on their ability to maintain the fluidity and decentralized order that was possible in the initial stages of the DAO.

- [3652481-022](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/3652481-022) [condition/asserted] -- Lasting legal solutions for DAOs must increase and maintain the decentralization already achieved inside the DAO, because DAOs cannot exist and persist without ever increasing degrees of decentralization.
  > Lasting legal solutions for DAOs have to increase and maintain the internal and external decentralization accomplished in the DAO. DAOs cannot exist and persist without ever increasing degrees of decentralization.

**2021**

- [3981021-021](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/3981021-021) [design/argued] -- Decentralized evolutionary and dynamic governance forms the foundation of the CHARITYxDAO community values and core beliefs, and decentralized governance is what provides cohesion and longevity in the DAO.
  > provides the necessary decentralized evolutionary and dynamic governance that forms the foundation of the CHARITYxDAO community values and core beliefs. Decentralized governance provides cohesion and longevity in the CHARITYxDAO.

- [3981021-023](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/3981021-023) [condition/argued] *(failure mode)* -- The CHARITYxDAO's long term success depends on maintaining dynamic decentralized fluidity and order; without it the values that initially united the voting associates are at risk of morphing into ever tighter, more complex, and hierarchical structures.
  > long-term success depends on its ability to maintain the dynamic decentralized fluidity and dynamic decentralized order. Without it, the CHARITYxDAO's values that initially united and reinforced the CHARITYxDAO VAs are at risk of morphing into ever tighter, complex, and hierarchical structures.
