# ISC
# ISC (Inflation-resistant Stable Currency)
## Overview
ISC is an inflation-resistant stablecoin built on Solana, launched on 2023-03-17 at $1.545. Unlike USD-pegged stablecoins, ISC is collateralized by a diversified basket of financial assets (20% cash, 20% commodities, 20% treasuries, 20% bonds, 20% equities) designed to maintain purchasing power against inflation. As of late 2024, ISC was trading at $1.81.
ISC is a Solana-native stablecoin designed as an inflation hedge rather than a USD peg. Launched in March 2023, ISC maintains collateralization through a diversified basket of assets (20% each: cash, commodities, treasuries, bonds, equities). Unlike traditional stablecoins pegged to fiat, ISC aims to preserve purchasing power against inflation.

# MetaDAO: Swap $150,000 into ISC?
## Summary
MetaDAO proposed converting $150,000 USDC (approximately 6.8% of its $2.2M treasury) into ISC, a Solana-native inflation-resistant stablecoin. The proposal aimed to hedge against USD devaluation while encouraging other DAOs to adopt similar treasury diversification strategies. The ISC team offered to use MetaDAO's futarchy governance for their own DAO decisions in exchange.

## Market Data
- **Outcome:** Failed
- **Proposer:** @Richard_ISC (ISC team)
- **Proposal Account:** Gp3ANMRTdGLPNeMGFUrzVFaodouwJSEXHbg5rFUi9roJ
- **Execution Plan:** DCA order on Jupiter (150K USDC → ISC, 10 orders over 10 hours, price range $1.70-$1.90)
- **Proposal Number:** 8
- **Created:** 2024-10-30
- **Completed:** 2024-11-03
## Proposal Details
- **Amount:** $150,000 USDC (~6.8% of treasury)
- **Target Asset:** ISC (Inflation-resistant Stable Currency)
- **Execution Method:** DCA order on Jupiter with 10 orders over 1-hour intervals
- **Price Range:** $1.70 - $1.90 per ISC
- **ISC Collateral:** 20% cash, 20% commodities, 20% treasuries, 20% bonds, 20% equities
- **ISC Launch:** 2023-03-17 at $1.545, trading at $1.81 at proposal time
## Rationale
- USD lost 17.8% of value since 2020
- ISC designed as inflation hedge through diversified collateral basket
- ISC team committed to using MetaDAO futarchy for governance (freeze authority removal, basket changes)
- Potential to attract other DAOs to MetaDAO platform
## Significance
This proposal represents an early attempt at cross-protocol treasury collaboration where one protocol (ISC) offers governance adoption in exchange for treasury allocation from another (MetaDAO). The failure suggests MetaDAO token holders were skeptical of either ISC's value proposition or the appropriateness of treasury diversification into a nascent stablecoin.
The proposal also highlights futarchy's use case for treasury management decisions involving risk assessment and alternative asset evaluation.
This proposal represents an external project using MetaDAO's futarchy platform to gain legitimacy and treasury diversification from an established DAO. The failure suggests MetaDAO token holders were skeptical of either ISC's value proposition or the appropriateness of treasury diversification into a nascent stablecoin. The proposal also demonstrates the challenge of cross-promotional treasury deals where the proposer has direct financial interest.

extraction_notes: "Proposal-specific entity extraction. No novel claims about futarchy mechanisms or treasury management principles — this is a straightforward failed treasury diversification proposal. The cross-protocol governance collaboration angle (ISC offering to use MetaDAO futarchy) is interesting but not developed enough to extract as a general claim. Created entity for ISC as it represents a significant alternative stablecoin design on Solana."
extraction_notes: "Failed treasury diversification proposal. Primary extraction is decision_market entity with parent timeline update and new ISC entity. No novel claims about futarchy mechanisms or treasury management—this is a straightforward proposal rejection with no broader theoretical implications. The proposal's failure provides a data point about MetaDAO's risk appetite but doesn't establish a generalizable pattern."
