The migration transferred 990,000 META, 10,025 USDC, and 5.5 SOL from the v0.0 treasury to the v0.1 program's treasury. + +## Market Data +- **Outcome:** Passed +- **Proposer:** HfFi634cyurmVVDr9frwu4MjGLJzz9XbAJz981HdVaNz +- **Proposal Account:** AkLsnieYpCU2UsSqUNrbMrQNi9bvdnjxx75mZbJns9zi +- **DAO Account:** 3wDJ5g73ABaDsL1qofF5jJqEJU4RnRQrvzRLkSnFc5di +- **Completed:** 2023-12-13 + +## Significance +This was MetaDAO's first major governance mechanism upgrade, establishing the pattern of iterative futarchy refinement. The shift to configurable and shorter proposal durations reflected a production learning: faster feedback loops matter more than theoretical purity in early-stage futarchy adoption. + +The proposal also highlighted a key production tradeoff: the upgrade was deployed without verifiable builds due to unspecified constraints, accepting counterparty trust risk to ship the improvement faster. The proposer acknowledged this as temporary, noting future versions would use verifiable builds. + +## Key Risks Acknowledged +- **Smart contract risk:** Potential bugs in v0.1 not present in v0.0 (assessed as low given limited code changes) +- **Counterparty risk:** Non-verifiable build required trust in proposer not introducing backdoors + +## Relationship to KB +- [[metadao]] - first major mechanism upgrade +- [[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]] - configurable duration feature +- [[futarchy implementations must simplify theoretical mechanisms for production adoption because original designs include impractical elements that academics tolerate but users reject]] - verifiable build tradeoff \ No newline at end of file
