# Proph3t

## Overview
Founder of MetaDAO and architect of the Autocrat futarchy implementation on Solana. Built the first functional futarchy governance system at scale. Key intellectual influence on the ownership coin thesis — the idea that tokens with futarchy governance create genuinely investable organizations rather than speculative memecoins.

## Significance
- Created the Futarchic AMM — a custom AMM for conditional token markets that no existing AMM can replicate
- Designed the Autocrat program (conditional token markets with TWAP settlement)
- Led the transition from uncapped pro-rata launches to Futardio's unruggable ICO mechanism
- Publicly endorsed by Colin for LP reallocation discussions (potential 10% LP reallocation from Futarchic AMM)
- "Learning fast" — publicly documented iteration speed and intellectual honesty about mechanism design failures

## Key Contributions to KB
- Primary source for futarchy mechanism design claims
- MetaDAO governance proposals (hired Robin Hanson as advisor — proposal submitted Feb 2025)
- Pine Analytics quarterly reports provide data on MetaDAO ecosystem health

## Relationship to KB
- [[MetaDAOs Autocrat program implements futarchy through conditional token markets where proposals create parallel pass and fail universes settled by time-weighted average price over a three-day window]] — designed this
- [[futarchy is manipulation-resistant because attack attempts create profitable opportunities for defenders]] — implemented this
- [[MetaDAOs futarchy implementation shows limited trading volume in uncontested decisions]] — acknowledged this limitation
