Does a Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO) Running a DEX Need to Implement Fair Access Protocols?

While a DAO doesn't have employees in the traditional sense, the core principles of fair access ▴ preventing privileged information misuse ▴ are still relevant. Instead of "Chinese Walls," the protocol itself must be transparent and fair.

This means ensuring that no one, including the core developers or governance token holders, can manipulate the transaction ordering or access pending trade information for profit. The fairness is enforced by code, not by internal HR policies.
