# AMM futarchy reduces state rent costs by 99 percent versus CLOB by eliminating orderbook storage requirements
Central Limit Order Books (CLOBs) in futarchy implementations require 3.75 SOL in state rent per pass/fail market pair on Solana, which cannot be recouped under current architecture. At 3-5 proposals per month, this creates annual costs of 135-225 SOL ($11,475-$19,125 at January 2024 prices). AMMs cost "almost nothing in state rent" because they don't maintain orderbook state—just pool reserves and a price curve.
The MetaDAO proposal notes that while state rent can theoretically be recouped through OpenBook mechanisms, doing so "would require a migration of the current autocrat program," making it impractical for existing deployments.
This cost differential becomes material at scale: a DAO running 50 proposals annually would spend ~$30K-$50K on CLOB state rent versus near-zero for AMMs, creating strong economic pressure toward AMM adoption independent of other mechanism considerations.
## Evidence
- MetaDAO proposal documents 3.75 SOL state rent cost per CLOB market pair
- Annual projection: 135-225 SOL for 3-5 monthly proposals
- AMM state requirements described as "almost nothing"
- State rent recovery requires autocrat program migration (feedback section)

- [[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]]
