The Media and Journalism Research Center is evolving into a decentralized, crypto-native think tank. MJRC DAO is our new governance and funding structure — designed to protect editorial independence, promote collaborative research, and build a new model for media accountability in the digital age.
Mission
MJRC DAO exists to:
- Defend independent journalism from state and corporate capture
- Fund public-interest research on media, democracy, and disinformation
- Empower a global community of researchers, technologists, and citizens
- Use Web3 tools to ensure transparency, resilience, and collective governance
How It Works
We use a decentralized governance model based on a custom $MJRC token and a shared Constitution. Token holders can:
- Vote on proposals
- Allocate research funding
- Approve strategic directions
- Elect or recall core contributors
Governance happens on Snapshot — no gas required.

Funding the Future
MJRC DAO is funded by:
- Community grants and crypto donations
- NFT sales and on-chain fundraising campaigns
- Research commissions and media partnerships
All spending is governed via the DAO and fully transparent on-chain.
