Techub News reports that, according to Cointelegraph, the Governor of Alabama has signed the "Decentralized Unregistered Nonprofit Association Act" (DUNA), making it the second state in the U.S. after Wyoming to grant legal status to DAOs. The bill grants DAOs full legal entity status, allowing them to own property, enter into contracts, and participate in legal proceedings, while clearly exempting individual members and managers from personal liability. To qualify, a DAO must have at least 100 members and be formed for the purpose of governing a blockchain network or smart contract system as a shared nonprofit. Additionally, a similar bill in West Virginia has been passed by the House and is currently awaiting the governor's signature.
