Dean's List DAO fee structure proposal passed despite requiring traders to actively migrate to new pools and accept 20x higher fees (0.25% to 5%). The proposal explicitly acknowledged potential 20-30% volume decrease but passed anyway, suggesting the market priced the net treasury benefit (~$19k-25k annual growth) as worth the migration friction. This demonstrates that futarchy can approve proposals with significant user friction when the economic benefit is clear.

Dean's List DAO proposal passed with TWAP threshold requiring only 3% MCAP increase ($307,855 vs $298,889 baseline), suggesting the market viewed the fee increase as marginally positive but not strongly so. The conservative 3% threshold indicates either low participation or weak conviction despite clear revenue projections showing 20x fee increase.

The Dean's List proposal passed futarchy governance despite requiring complex multi-step economic modeling (FDV projections, TWAP calculations, sell pressure estimates) that most token holders would not independently verify. The 5.33% projected FDV increase exceeded the 3% TWAP requirement, suggesting the proposal's passage reflected trust in the model rather than independent market validation of the buyback mechanics.

The proposal passed MetaDAO governance but represents a single implementation without long-term performance data. The 80% sell-off assumption is stated as "assumption" in the proposal itself, not empirically validated. No mechanism prevents citizens from selling more than 80% if they face liquidity pressure.

The Dean's List DAO proposal demonstrates buyback mechanics with specific numbers: charging clients 2500 USDC per review, taking 20% DAO tax in USDC (500), using remaining 2000 USDC to purchase $DEAN tokens, then distributing purchased tokens to DAO citizens as payment. With 80% of recipients selling, the model claims net positive price action because buys exceed sells by 20%. Example shows 400 USDC daily purchases creating 80% increase in trading volume relative to baseline 500 USDC/day, with estimated 5.33% FDV increase from $337,074 to $355,028 monthly.
