Frequently Asked Questions
New Order is a community-led incubation DAO that builds startups at the frontier of decentralized finance and Web3. We launch early-stage protocols through strategic internal incubation and our DeFi Base Camp accelerator program.
New Order acts as a co-founder and works directly with teams by leveraging and deploying our network of developers, researchers, and venture strategists.
We do everything we can to provide direct outputs across token design, protocol architecture, development, security, marketing, networking, fundraising and most importantly, ‘whatever it takes’. This gives teams that work with New Order a head start and an ‘edge’ on their efforts.
In the context of New Order, incubation is our process of providing the resources and execution for early-stage Web3 ideas to grow into a fully fleshed out project. We begin projects after conducting significant research and often start pre-team, pre-product and pre-capital.
We believe that providing a collaborative and aligned venture environment for big ideas and bold thinkers will help us to develop solutions that will have maximum impact for our industry and the world.
If you have an exciting idea, but need help building it, you can apply for incubation here.
DeFi Basecamp is a DeFi accelerator program we’ve built in collaboration with Outlier Ventures. DeFi Base Camp focuses on bootstrapping projects that are already past the idea phase.
An accelerator program is a short-term, intensive program designed to help early-stage startups grow and scale their businesses.
Upon admission DeFi Basecamp offers up to $100,000 in funding. For three months, we deploy dedicated teams to act as co-founders to Base Camp projects. This ensures optimal product refinement, legal structuring, token model design, fundraising, liquidity sourcing, industry connections, and more.

NEWO is the governance token of the New Order ecosystem. As a DAO, we ensure that our community is involved in all of our processes. The NEWO treasury generally receives 5-10% of each incubated project's supply through flexible incubation terms.
veNEWO is short for vote escrowed NEWO. In order to receive benefits such as protocol emissions, governance power, treasury rewards, and more, users must lock their NEWO as veNEWO. Locks can be as short as three months or as long as three years.
Incubating projects is resource intensive. We’re always looking for smart people to get involved in the DAO. If you’re a potential founder, developer, researcher, or <insert your skillset here>, join the Discord and let us know that you’d like to get involved!
