DAO Fragmentation

Definition

DAO Fragmentation describes the phenomenon where a Decentralized Autonomous Organization experiences a division into multiple distinct sub-DAOs or groups, often due to disagreements over governance, strategic direction, or resource allocation. This division can result in a dilution of collective power, reduced efficiency, and challenges in maintaining a unified vision. It presents a significant hurdle for the long-term cohesion and effectiveness of decentralized governance structures.
