The countervailing power Of AI DAOs influences value transformation; Bitcoin (POW) vs.Ethereum (POS)

In this paper, we investigate the process of value transformation influenced by the countervailing power of decentralised autonomous organisations (DAO) controlled by artificial intelligence (AI). There are various values in society. The Internet was believed to lead humanity better by further decentralizing various values. However, the uneven distribution of information causes many problems, such as "cyber cascades", "filter bubbles", and "echo chambers" etc. To solve these problems, DAO using blockchain is expected to become a method of solving those problems in the Internet space. This paper intends to capture the value change in three steps. In the first step, we take two philosophical approaches. First, using Hegel's dialectic, we attempt to compare A. current social values (thesis), B. the value of, for example, AI DAOs (antithesis), and C. new values (synthesis) in an Internet world where these contradictions exist (A + B = C). The second philosophical approach is to consider the mutuality of Bitcoin (POW) and Ethereum (POS) by adapting Popper's World 1, 2, and 3 models. In the second step, we examine the three core capabilities that amplify "credit" in decentralised finance (DeFi): exchange swap rates, staking, and indices (portfolio). Finally, we consider the value dispersion within the Bitcoin and Ethereum networks as the main two poles. The countervailing power between these two poles and the upcoming expanding AI DAOs, especially Bitcoin-halving, coordinate the interests of stakeholders due to the uneven distribution of values and encourage the interaction between diverse values in cyberspace.本文旨在探究由人工智能（Artificial Intelligence, AI）管控的去中心化自治组织（Decentralised Autonomous Organisation, DAO）的制衡力量所影响的价值转化过程。社会中存在多元价值，过往学界与公众普遍认为，互联网通过进一步去中心化各类价值，能够助力人类迈向更优的发展路径。然而，信息分布不均引发了诸多问题，诸如‘网络级联效应’‘信息茧房’与‘回声室效应’等。为解决上述问题，基于区块链（Blockchain）构建的DAO被视为解决网络空间相关问题的可行路径。 本文拟通过三个步骤梳理价值变迁过程：第一步，采用两种哲学研究路径。其一，借助黑格尔辩证法（Hegel's dialectic），对比存在矛盾的网络世界中的三类价值：A. 当下社会主流价值（正题）、B. 例如AI DAO所代表的价值（反题），以及C. 全新的融合性价值（合题，即A+B=C）；其二，依托波普尔（Popper）的世界1、世界2与世界3模型，分析比特币（Bitcoin，工作量证明（Proof of Work, POW））与以太坊（Ethereum，权益证明（Proof of Stake, POS））二者的互构关系。 第二步，剖析去中心化金融（Decentralised Finance, DeFi）中三类强化‘信用’的核心能力：交易兑换汇率机制、质押机制与指数（投资组合）体系。 最后，将比特币与以太坊网络内的价值分散现象视作两大核心价值极。上述两大价值极与即将扩容的AI DAO之间的制衡力量，尤其是比特币减半事件，会因价值分布不均协调各方利益相关者的诉求，并推动网络空间中多元价值的互动融合。
