■ A Blog Post - Tenryukyo
Last month, we’ve announced that Tenryukyo in Nagano Prefecture has been selected as a candidate for the next Local DAO.
For those of you who have never heard of Tenryukyo, Tenryukyo is a major touristic place known for its beautiful views of nature and deep valleys, which have been recognized as a national place of scenic beauty. The region used to be crowded with tourists, but in recent years it has faced challenges such as a declining and ageing population. In order to fundamentally resolve these issues, the Tenryu Gorge team proposes a shift in the nature of tourism from 'New Age Tourism from a consuming tourism destination to a Co-creating Hometown'.
The Tenryukyo team has written about the thoughts behind the decision to submit this time as a candidate for Local DAO, as well as the actual situation in Tenryukyo. The English translation will be available next week.
■ Japan DAO Association
On April 1st, 2024, the Japan DAO Association (JDA) will be officially launched, marking a significant milestone in the advancement of decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) in the country. The JDA aims to foster the growth and development of DAOs in Japan by providing support, resources, and education to individuals and organizations interested in this innovative technology.
The launch of the JDA is a significant development for the Japanese blockchain ecosystem. By providing a platform for collaboration and knowledge sharing, the JDA will accelerate the adoption of DAOs in Japan and contribute to the growth of the decentralized economy.
