None of the references are sufficient to meet WP:NORG criteria for establishing notability. Also the last AfD was invaded by socks who have since been blocked.  HighKing++ 12:38, 7 November 2022 (UTC)

 * Weak keep, to clarify from last time: several trivial mentions, but there are enough of them to show sustained coverage and a weak GNG. That being said, I'm not opposed to a merge to the Natalia lady's article, she's mostly responsible for this token thing (that I still don't fully understand).

 * It has 5 paragraphs about it in the Time article and 3 in the CNN piece, rest are gravy. Oaktree b (talk) 14:18, 7 November 2022 (UTC)
 * This is a company/organization so WP:NCORP is the appropriate guideline.  HighKing++ 16:37, 22 November 2022 (UTC)
 * The brief CNN article is mostly based on "Organizers said", "UkraineDAO said", "According to UkraineDAO's website", "Pussy Riot's Nadya Tolokonnikova, who collaborated with NFT platform CXIP, digital art studio Trippy Labs and online collective PleasrDAO -- said", "said Tolokonnikova", and "On its website, UkraineDAO said". Per WP:N, even if a topic meets WP:GNG, it can be excluded per WP:NOT. The WP:ORGCRIT section of the WP:ORG guideline says it is meant to address some of the common issues with abusing Wikipedia for advertising and promotion, so the guideline can help identify what to exclude per the WP:PROMO section of WP:NOT policy.

 * Also, the CNN article is about UkraineDAO, not UnicornDAO. Both are discussed in a Politico blurb about Pussy Riot and "UnicornDAO, co-founded by Pussy Riot’s Nadya Tolokonnikova", which notes "(Tolokonnikova has experience in crypto altruism, also having helped found UkraineDAO, which raised millions of dollars to support the country in its war against Russia.)"

 * Merge relevant sources and content to Nadya Tolokonnikova, who appears to be the locus of coverage for more than UnicornDAO. My search today has not found better sources about UnicornDAO to support WP:ORG notability, and my source analysis and reasoning from the previous AfD continues to apply, with the exception of the CNN source, now clarified above as mostly WP:PROMO for UkraineDAO, not UnicornDAO.

 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Just to note as the nom I agree with Beccaynr above that a Merge to Nadya Tolokonnikova is more appropriate  HighKing++ 16:36, 22 November 2022 (UTC)
