Trump recently created a "Peace Committee," where a $1 billion investment can buy a permanent seat—once this news broke, netizens went into an uproar.



Someone asked: Isn't this just turning politics into a "Super VIP Club"? Having more money means having more say—this logic is indeed stimulating in traditional systems.

But did you know? The play of exchanging resources for long-term rights has long been standardized in the blockchain world.

For example, DAO governance projects' token holders can vote on decisions and earn ecosystem rewards, which is also "exchanging rights for sustained returns." The difference is, Trump is selling a "political position," while DAO offers a transparent economic system—no exorbitant entry fees, rules written into smart contracts, visible to all participants.

The key difference lies here:

In traditional methods, whoever has money gets to speak, with opaque operations; on-chain, voting processes are open, distribution is transparent, and tampering is impossible. Holding tokens not only allows participation in governance but also ongoing gains from protocol-generated revenue—this is true "asset appreciation."

Rather than saying DAO is "selling seats," it's more accurate to say it's building a self-operating profit system. Every participant can clearly see where their rights are and how profits are distributed.

If you also want your assets to keep growing, the key is not to spend $1 billion to buy a position, but to understand how to participate in ecosystem growth through on-chain governance mechanisms. This is the truly valuable financial strategy—transparent, verifiable, trustless middlemen not required.

Haha, spending $1 billion to buy a seat is really outrageous. But on the other hand, the DAO approach is actually more appealing, since at least the rules are on the chain for everyone to see.

$1 billion to buy a voice? Traditional elites are really outrageous; we've already mastered this approach on the chain.

Billion-dollar buy-in? This trick has been played out in the crypto world long ago; Trump just brought it offline.

Haha, politics are also starting to adopt the token model? The blockchain approach has finally been "learned" by traditional elites, but it's missing the transparency aspect.

$1 billion to buy a seat? Buddy, I've seen that logic before in DAOs, it's just that the on-chain version doesn't seem as messy.
