CCA Membership in Bread Cooperative
Understanding our cooperative membership and shared values
About Bread Cooperative
BreadCoop is a worker-owned cooperative that operates on principles of democratic ownership and equitable distribution. As a cooperative, BreadCoop embodies the values of collective stewardship and shared governance that align closely with the mission of the Crypto Commons Association.
Our Membership
The Crypto Commons Association is a proud member of Bread Cooperative. This membership represents a natural alignment between traditional cooperative economics and emerging blockchain-based commons governance models. Through this membership, we participate in a network of organizations committed to building alternative economic systems based on cooperation rather than extraction.
Shared Values
BreadCoop's cooperative model demonstrates how organizations can be structured to prioritize member wellbeing and collective decision-making over extractive profit models. These principles resonate deeply with our work on digital commons:
- Democratic governance and shared decision-making
- Equitable distribution of resources and value
- Collective ownership and stewardship
- Commitment to community wellbeing over individual profit
- Transparency and accountability in operations
Supporting Our Mission
Bread Cooperative has generously supported the CCA with a $10,000 contribution, helping advance research and development of digital commons infrastructure. This support enables more cooperative, community-driven economic systems and shows how digital tools can amplify and extend proven cooperative principles into the blockchain space.
