DAO INITIATIVES
Founded in 2021, PizzaDAO is a decentralized co-op of artists, builders, and pizza lovers. It turns digital scarcity (NFTs, merch) into analog plenty (free pizza worldwide), funds independent pizzerias, and runs the annual Bitcoin Pizza Day celebration that Goshen proudly hosts.
FLAGSHIP
Every May 22, local hosts in hundreds of cities organize free pizza events with crypto education and Stand With Crypto advocacy. 2025: 400+ cities, 20,000+ people fed. 2026 is in motion — Goshen is one of those local nodes.
ART → REAL PIZZA
300+ independent artists generated 10,000 unique pizza NFTs. Mint proceeds directly fund pizza giveaways and events. Digital art becomes real cheese.
ON-CHAIN
A modular on-chain suite for tokenizing consumables — minting pizza slices and drinks as Stellar/Soroban assets. Goal: unified, gamified tracking across all 2026 Global Pizza Party sites with no wallet required for attendees.
LONG TERM
An open-source franchise stack — software, marketing, supplier networks, and community-owned real estate — to help independent pizzerias gain the economies of scale that big chains enjoy, with transparent on-chain financials.
COMMUNITY
Regular Discord community calls, governance proposals, POAP-stamped side events at ETHDenver, FarCon, and more. Wearable philanthropy via merch and raffles.
ADVOCACY
Collaborations with Stand With Crypto and others. Funding via Giveth and Octant. Onboarding-via-fun: lower the barrier with pizza, raise the ceiling with decentralized infrastructure.
Local events like ours amplify the global mission — one slice and one conversation at a time. In 2026 expect on-chain tokenization tie-ins (mint your slice vibes), Stand With Crypto signage, and Rare Pizzas representation alongside Venturi's wood-fired Neapolitan pies.
