At Bonsai DAO, we strategically invest in decentralized innovation. We operate as a decentralized venture studio—a MetaDAO specializing in strategic capital allocation to incubate, fund, and launch interconnected DeFi products. These independently operated initiatives—called Leaf spinouts, or simply —work together, sharing value and driving ecosystem growth.
Our mission is to foster an agile, collaborative, and scalable DeFi ecosystem through thoughtful investment, rigorous innovation, and aligned incentives. By strategically nurturing independent yet complementary projects, we accelerate impactful innovation, strengthen value alignment across the Bonsai ecosystem, and position sustainably for any market conditions.
Each Leaf indirectly strengthens and enriches the broader Bonsai ecosystem through individually designed mechanisms matching their unique strategies and business models. The overall success of Leaves aligns closely with ecosystem prosperity, supporting long-term decentralized innovation and sustained value creation within Bonsai DAO and its community.
Our vision is to create a robust ecosystem where decentralized ventures thrive—empowered by strategic capital allocation, expert support, and transparent governance. By actively supporting and launching innovative DeFi spinouts (Leaves), Bonsai DAO aims for mature, sustainable growth, positioning itself as a resilient ecosystem built for the long term.
We've compiled helpful guides to help you engage actively with the Bonsai DAO ecosystem, explore its opportunities, and discover ways to benefit from involvement with our decentralized products.
