Book details
Overview
MLB (1919): The Boston Red Sox sell Babe Ruth to the Yankees for $100,000
NBA (1984 draft): The Portland Trail Blazers select Sam Bowie over Michael Jordan
NFL (1992): The Atlanta Falcons trade away Brett Favre, only to struggle mightily at the QB position
Overlooking these hall-of-fame caliber talents before they blossomed are only a few of the infamous blunders fans have excruciatingly criticized throughout sports history. It’s easy to think you’re better, you wouldn’t have missed that opportunity, but you won’t ever have the chance to prove it if you’re not a general manager, let alone a billionaire owner…
UNTIL NOW!
Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs) are rewriting ownership ideologies, allowing fans to "OwnTheGame." Utilizing decentralized cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology, they extend exclusive front offices into open community spaces.
In addition to sports, DAOs are emerging in all types of communities across the globe:
- Reimagine Your City: Envision having a direct say in how your city is run, from local parks to transportation systems. CityDAOs are starting to make this prospect a reality.
- Save the Planet: In KlimaDAO, you can address environmental concerns with the resources of a like-minded community.
- Demand Justice for All: Leveling the legal playing field, ensuring access to fair representation, is a critical global issue. DAOs, especially Jur, are striving to help.
Inside this book, you’ll get a potential playbook for the future:
- Discover how DAOs function, granting token holders — effectively shareholders with legitimate influence — ownership and decision-making rights.
- Meet the pioneers who are changing the game: Krause House DAO, BuyTheBroncos DAO, LinksDAO, etc.
- Learn the blockchain basics that make DAOs possible.
- Become an Owner with guides for joining existing DAOs and possibly even creating your own.
Whether you’re a die-hard sports fanatic, community builder, or crypto enthusiast, this book is your ticket to joining arguably the most significant movement in the evolution of ownership models.
Description
From Spectators to Owners - "OwnTheGame"
Sick of no role in calling the shots on "your" teams? "#OwnTheGame" throws open the doors to a sports world where fans are owners with votes, not just spectators. Written by a young visionary leading the charge, this electrifying guide demystifies DAOs (Decentralized Autonomous Organizations) and reveals how they're changing the game forever.

Experience the heart-stopping highs and lows as fan-owned DAOs take on the establishment - the Oakland A's relocation (Introduction), the Krause House's NBA dreams (Chapter 7).
Witness the Ufod Town Miracle: a teenager and his friends, facing a crumbling baseball field, dared to dream. Follow their inspiring story as they employ the power of DAOs to revitalize their community, battling skepticism and bureaucracy along the way (Chapter 12).
"OwnTheGame" also dives into the pulse-pounding stories of LinksDAO's golf haven (Chapter 8) - real fans turning dreams into reality. It cuts through blockchain jargon (Chapter 5), making the tech accessible to everyone. Explore a panorama of DAOs reshaping industries from soccer to sailing (Chapter 8), and learn how major sports leagues like MLB could be revolutionized (Chapter 10). You'll understand smart contracts, tokenomics, and the power of collective governance.
