### Investment thesis
Aragon aims at helping groups (NGO, Organisations, Companies) to create a DAO i.e. a decentralised organisation spanning from governance (including voting), cross-members payments and more.
This technology has many applications if the project can spur adoption and it has a wealth of natural use cases and natural client groups.
---
### Risk profile
High risk
The token itself has limited use cases hence its high dependence on mass adoption of the technology.
---
### Tokenomics
ANT is the token that gives rights to participate in the governance of Aragon, a DAO itself. It is understood that users of Aragon solutions would want a share of the decision-making on the future of the service and price should therefore be correlated to adoption.
ANT are not easily stakeable, i.e., vested against a yield, however.
