Alchemy’s new 2026 DAO directory catalogs 134 web3 groups across Ethereum, Solana and more, giving developers a ready‑made reference for ecosystem research.

A new Alchemy directory now enumerates 134 decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) spanning Ethereum, Solana and other leading blockchains, giving developers and analysts a single source for on‑chain project discovery as the DAO sector matures toward greater institutional scrutiny【2】.

| At a glance | |
|---|---|
| DAO count | 134 |
| Ecosystems covered | Ethereum, Solana, others |
| Data sources | DefiLlama, DappRadar, The Grid, others |
| Notable top DAOs | MakerDAO, Uniswap DAO, Arbitrum DAO (from industry overview) |

## Scope of the Alchemy DAO directory  
Alchemy’s “List of 134 DAOs” aggregates entries from multiple public data feeds—including DefiLlama, DappRadar and The Grid—under an Open Database License. The catalog includes well‑known groups such as Juicebox, Rain, Realms, FLOAT and Colony, alongside dozens of smaller collectives, reflecting the breadth of the web3 governance landscape in 2026【2】. While the list is not ranked by treasury size, it mirrors the broader industry view that influence now hinges on governance participation and ecosystem role rather than pure asset holdings, as highlighted in a recent Webopedia feature on the ten most influential DAOs of the year【1】.

## How the directory fits the evolving DAO ecosystem  
The DAO sector has contracted to a more professional core: roughly 14,000 DAOs exist across all chains, yet only about 220 hold treasuries above $1 million and fewer than 80 meet institutional standards for healthy governance【3】. Alchemy’s compilation therefore serves as a curated entry point for developers seeking to target the active, fund‑backed segment of the market. By surfacing projects across multiple ecosystems, the list also underscores the cross‑chain diversification that top DAOs such as Arbitrum DAO and Uniswap DAO have pursued, with expansions onto Layer‑2 solutions and non‑Ethereum networks【1】.

## What to watch
- **New DAO onboarding** – Track Alchemy’s updates for additional entries, especially as emerging DAOs cross the $1 M treasury threshold.
- **Governance health metrics** – Monitor on‑chain participation rates (e.g., voting power concentration) reported by trackers like DeepDAO, which indicate whether listed DAOs maintain decentralized decision‑making.
- **Cross‑chain expansion** – Watch for announcements of DAO deployments on emerging ecosystems (e.g., Solana, Polygon) that could shift the composition of future Alchemy lists.

The launch of a consolidated DAO directory signals that the web3 community is moving from a fragmented experimental phase to a more structured, data‑driven environment, where developers can readily access the organizations shaping decentralized finance, staking and digital asset ownership.
