+# MetaDAO: Engage in $250,000 OTC Trade with Colosseum
+
+## Summary
+Colosseum proposed acquiring META tokens from MetaDAO's treasury for $250,000 USDC with a dynamic pricing mechanism tied to the pass market TWAP. The structure included 20% immediate unlock and 80% linear vesting over 12 months through Streamflow. The proposal included a sponsored DAO track ($50,000-$80,000 prize pool) in Colosseum's next hackathon as strategic partnership commitment.

+## Market Data
+- **Outcome:** Passed
+- **Proposer:** pR13Aev6U2DQ3sQTWSZrFzevNqYnvq5TM9c1qTKLfm8
+- **Resolution:** 2024-03-24
+- **Proposal Number:** 13
+
+## Pricing Mechanism
+The acquisition price per META was determined by conditional logic:
+- If pass market TWAP < $850: price = TWAP
+- If pass market TWAP between $850-$1,200: price = $850 (capped)
+- If pass market TWAP > $1,200: proposal void, USDC returned
+
+This created a price discovery mechanism with downside flexibility and upside protection for the treasury.
+
+## Execution Structure
+The proposal transferred 2,060 META to a 5/7 multisig (FhJHnsCGm9JDAe2JuEvqr67WE8mD2PiJMUsmCTD1fDPZ) with members from both Colosseum and MetaDAO. The overallocation (beyond the $250k/$850 = 294 META minimum) provided flexibility for price fluctuations, with excess META returned to treasury.
+
+## Strategic Rationale
+Colosseum positioned the investment as ecosystem development rather than pure capital deployment, emphasizing their ability to funnel hackathon participants and accelerator companies to MetaDAO. The sponsored DAO track commitment ($50k-$80k value) represented immediate reciprocal value beyond the token purchase.
+
+## Significance
+This represents one of the earliest institutional OTC acquisitions through futarchy governance, demonstrating that prediction markets can price complex multi-party agreements with conditional terms. The vesting structure and multisig execution show how futarchy-governed DAOs handle treasury operations requiring operational security beyond pure market mechanisms.
