How Can a DAO Use Its Treasury to Participate in Yield Farming or Staking to Generate Revenue?

A DAO can allocate a portion of its non-native assets (e.g. stablecoins or blue-chip crypto) to audited, established DeFi protocols for yield farming or staking. This generates passive revenue for the treasury, which can then be used to fund operations, development, or buy back and burn native tokens.

The goal is to grow the treasury's value without selling native tokens.
