Ok then if “I think, therefore I am.” then an engineer says "I make useful things, therefore I am." A crypto miner would say "I hash blockchains, therefore I am." A staker might say "I stake, therefore I am."

I think you get the central point, it is like keep moving, keep trying, keep producing. This is the first part of the axiom "A=, therefore I am =B." Its entirely possible that the DAO is the keeper of the Yin-Yang in this axiom. I wouldn't call it dualism at all. I would call it at n-dimensions surface topology depending on case flow into the network.
