# ISC
## 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.
## Timeline
- **2023-03-17** — Launched at Solana Hacker House in Ho Chi Minh City at $1.545
- **2024-10-30** — Proposed MetaDAO treasury swap of $150K USDC into ISC (failed)
- **2024-10-30** — Trading at $1.81 (17% appreciation since launch)
## Relationship to KB
- [[metadao-swap-150000-into-isc]] — attempted treasury partnership
- Represents alternative stablecoin design focused on inflation resistance rather than USD peg

# MetaDAO: Swap $150,000 into ISC?
## Summary
MetaDAO proposed swapping $150,000 USDC (~6.8% of its $2.2M treasury) for ISC, a Solana-native inflation-resistant stablecoin collateralized by a basket of assets (20% each: cash, commodities, treasuries, bonds, equities). The proposal aimed to hedge against USD devaluation and encourage other DAOs to adopt similar treasury strategies using MetaDAO's futarchy governance.
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 (10 orders over 10 hours, 1.7-1.9 price range)
- **Execution Plan:** DCA order on Jupiter (150K USDC → ISC, 10 orders over 10 hours, price range $1.70-$1.90)
## Significance
This proposal represents an early test case of futarchy-governed treasury diversification beyond standard stablecoins. The failure suggests MetaDAO token holders were skeptical of either ISC's risk profile (nascent asset, smaller market presence) or the strategic value of the diversification. The proposal also attempted to create a recursive governance relationship where ISC would use MetaDAO futarchy for its own governance decisions.
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.
## Context
- ISC launched 2023-03-17 at $1.545, trading at $1.81 at proposal time
- USD lost 17.8% value since 2020 (cited as rationale)
- ISC team offered to use MetaDAO futarchy for governance (freeze authority removal, basket changes)
The proposal also highlights futarchy's use case for treasury management decisions involving risk assessment and alternative asset evaluation.

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.
