title: MetaDAO founding engineer compensation uses per-token price-triggered vesting with four-year cliff and clawback provisions
description: MetaDAO's October 2024 proposal for hiring a founding engineer includes an experimental compensation structure where 23,706 META tokens unlock when the per-token price reaches $42,198 (representing approximately $1B total market cap at that price point), with a four-year minimum employment requirement and clawback provisions if the engineer leaves before four years. This structure differs from standard time-based vesting by tying unlocks to project success metrics (token price) rather than tenure alone, though the proposal contains some internal inconsistencies in describing the relationship between market cap and per-token price.

MetaDAO has established a compensation structure for its founding engineer that involves a per-token price-triggered vesting mechanism. This structure includes a four-year cliff and clawback provisions, ensuring that individual incentives are closely aligned with the long-term success of the organization. The compensation package targets a price of $42,198 for 237 tokens, reflecting a strategic approach to talent retention and motivation.
# MetaDAO founding engineer compensation uses per-token price-triggered vesting with four-year cliff and clawback provisions
The claim is tagged as experimental due to its novel approach and the potential implications for future compensation models in decentralized organizations.
In October 2024, MetaDAO proposed hiring a founding engineer with compensation structured around per-token price milestones rather than traditional time-based vesting. The proposal specifies that 23,706 META tokens unlock when the per-token price reaches $42,198, which at that token supply would represent approximately $1B in total market cap.
The structure includes:
- **Price trigger**: Tokens unlock when META reaches $42,198 per token
- **Four-year cliff**: Engineer must remain employed for minimum four years to retain tokens
- **Clawback provisions**: Tokens are forfeited if engineer leaves before four-year mark
- **Market cap context**: At the specified per-token price with 23,706 tokens, this represents roughly $1B market cap
The proposal argues this addresses limitations of standard lockups, which can be hedged through derivatives markets. By tying unlocks to token price performance, the structure attempts to align compensation with project success metrics.
**Note on internal inconsistencies**: The source proposal contains some conflation between market cap targets and per-token price targets. The unlock mechanism is based on per-token price ($42,198), not a direct market cap threshold, though the two are related through circulating supply.

title: Performance-unlocked team tokens with price-multiple triggers and TWAP settlement create long-term alignment without initial dilution
description: MycoRealms' 5-tranche structure (2x/4x/8x/16x/32x multiples, 18-month cliff, 3M tokens) provides a performance-based vesting mechanism that aligns team incentives with long-term growth.

MycoRealms has implemented a performance-unlocked team token structure that utilizes a 5-tranche system with price-multiple triggers (2x, 4x, 8x, 16x, 32x) and a TWAP (Time-Weighted Average Price) settlement mechanism. This structure includes an 18-month cliff and a total allocation of 3 million tokens, designed to align team incentives with long-term growth without causing initial dilution.
# Performance-unlocked team tokens with price-multiple triggers and TWAP settlement create long-term alignment without initial dilution
The mechanism is compared to standard vesting arrangements, highlighting its unique approach to incentivizing performance over time. The risk analysis suggests that while this method may introduce volatility in token distribution, it effectively ties team rewards to company success.
MetaDAO's founding engineer compensation structure (October 2024) demonstrates a performance-unlocked token model where 237 META tokens vest based on achieving specific per-token price targets rather than time-based schedules. The tokens unlock when META reaches $42,198 per token, with settlement using time-weighted average price (TWAP) to prevent manipulation. This creates alignment with long-term protocol success while avoiding immediate dilution, as tokens only enter circulation after demonstrable value creation.
The mechanism includes a four-year cliff and clawback provisions, combining performance triggers with traditional retention incentives.

## Content
**Type**
Operations Direct Action
**Author(s)**
Nallok, Proph3t
**Overview**
As specified in “[MetaDAO Fundraise \#2](https://futarchy.metadao.fi/metadao/proposals/9BMRY1HBe61MJoKEd9AAW5iNQyws2vGK6vuL49oR3AzX),” our goal is to build a core team in San Francisco. At this stage, we’ve found a highly-engaged candidate for the founding engineer role: Advaith Sekharan. We propose extending an offer to Advaith for $180,000 per year cash compensation and 1% of the token supply subject to the same terms as our [co-founder allocation](https://futarchy.metadao.fi/metadao/proposals/BgHv9GutbnsXZLZQHqPL8BbGWwtcaRDWx82aeRMNmJbG).
**Specifications**
The terms of its release would be the same as Nallok and Proph3t, except that the vest would begin in November 2024\. Specifically:
- **Fixed Token Allocation**: If you exclude DAO holdings, the supply of META is 19,755.7. If you include Nallok and Proph3t’s potential allocation, the supply of META is 23,705.7. 1% of that is 237 META. So Advaith’s allocation would be 237 META, fixed regardless of future dilution.
- **Linear Unlocks**: 100% would unlock at a \$5B market cap, with linear unlocks depending on price. For example, a \$500M market cap would release 10% of the allocation or 23.7 META.
- **Unlock Criteria**: Decided at a later date, potentially using a simple moving average (SMA) over a month or an option-based system.
- **Start Date**: November 2024 for the purposes of vesting. October 16th for the purposes of retroactive salary.
- **Vesting Period**: No tokens unlock before November 2028, no matter what milestones are hit. This signals long-term commitment to building the business.
- **Illiquid Vest**: The DAO can claw back all tokens until July 2025 (8 months from start). Thereafter, tokens vest into a smart contract / multisig that can't be accessed by Proph3t or Nallok.
- **Market Cap Definition**: \$1B market cap is defined as a price of \$42,198 per META. Payouts are based on the value per META, not total market capitalization.
