Internet Computer (ICP)

Not every project needs a full SNS. For teams that want a real on-chain DAO but lighter, smaller scale, less ceremony, less to configure, there's a leaner path on ICP, and it happens to close the hostile-takeover gap by default.

The takeover pattern is always the same shape: token price dips, someone grabs cheap voting weight fast, and the DAO's assets leave with them. Cheap and fast.
