How should whistleblower protections extend to decentralized organizations?

Decentralized autonomous organizations often lack clear reporting lines, HR departments, or legal entities. When someone identifies fraud, safety issues, or regulatory violations within a DAO or protocol team, existing whistleblower protections may not apply.

Should new frameworks be developed? Who is the accountable party? What remedies should exist?

This question deserves a thoughtful public response that bridges traditional employment law with emerging organizational structures.
