# MetaDAO: Engage in $500,000 OTC Trade with Theia? [2]
|
||||
|
||||
## Summary
|
||||
Theia Research proposed to acquire 370.370 META tokens from the MetaDAO Treasury for $500,000 USDC at $1,350 per token, representing a 14% premium to spot price at proposal time. The tokens vest linearly over 12 months via Streamflow. Theia committed to active governance participation, research publication, roadshow support, and policy expertise as strategic value-add beyond capital.
|
||||
|
||||
## Market Data
|
||||
- **Outcome:** Passed
|
||||
- **Proposer:** proPaC9tVZEsmgDtNhx15e7nSpoojtPD3H9h4GqSqB2
|
||||
- **Completed:** 2025-01-30
|
||||
- **Deal Terms:** 370.370 META at $1,350/token = $500,000 USDC
|
||||
- **Premium:** 14% above spot price at proposal
|
||||
- **Vesting:** 12-month linear via Streamflow
|
||||
|
||||
## Significance
|
||||
This is MetaDAO's second attempt at this OTC deal with Theia (first proposal failed). The 14% premium and strategic partnership terms demonstrate investor willingness to pay above-market for concentrated positions in futarchy infrastructure. Theia's commitment to active governance participation and research publication represents a shift from passive token holding to engaged ecosystem development.
|
||||
|
||||
The proposal explicitly frames the $500K as enabling MetaDAO to "hire an additional senior engineer, seed liquidity on new markets, and expand business development operations" — treating OTC sales as operational funding rather than pure treasury management.

extraction_notes: "This is a straightforward governance proposal documenting an OTC token sale. The proposal itself contains no novel mechanism insights or arguable claims about futarchy — it's a standard fundraise decision. All extractable content is factual (deal terms, timeline, participant statements) and belongs in entity timeline entries. The 14% premium and strategic partnership framing are notable data points but not claims requiring separate argumentation."
