== List of DACs ==
* [[Bitcoin]] itself, the first DAC?
* Altcurrencies, all of Bitcoin forks
* [[Ripple]] Labs is borderline ... they are a registered company and could be ordered to shutdown. The protocol is perhaps a DAC.
* [[Mastercoin]], a DAC replacement for Forex, Shares, and much more. Later evolved into a ProtoShares competitor.
* [[ProtoShares]], a meta DAC with the purpose of provding infrastructure for other DACs. It is composed of
** DomainShares, a DAC replacement for Namecoin
** BitShares, a competitor to Mastercoin <!-- (with much more limited feature set IMHO) -->
** Keyhotee, a DAC replacement for OpenID
** Other infrastructure components to follow... ?
* [[Mitosys]] - a DAC replacement for Bit-Message
* [[Colored Coins]] are working on defining themselves as a DAC ... no working business model spotted yet.

A Distributed Autonomous Community (DAC) is an "entity" without any central point of control, with a certain agenda, business plan, and protocol. A Decentralized Application or DA is an alternative formulation of a DAC. The concept is currently being developed by David Johnston.

There is an accelerating trend of more and more DACs being formed.
