significance: The failure of the early unlock offer can be interpreted in three ways: the forfeit was too high, investors preferred waiting, or the complexity was a deterrent.
---
Sanctum's offer to investors for early unlocks of their cloud assets failed. The decision market analysis suggests that the failure could be due to the high forfeit required, investors' preference to wait for full vesting, or the complexity of the offer deterring participation.

# Sanctum: Should Sanctum offer investors early unlocks of their CLOUD?
## Summary
This proposal would have empowered the Sanctum Team to offer investors immediate unlocks of their vesting CLOUD tokens in exchange for forfeiting 35% of their holdings to the Team Reserve. With 9% of token supply unlocking monthly over 24 months from investors, the mechanism could have increased the Team Reserve by up to 27 million CLOUD while reducing token overhang. The team committed not to redistribute forfeited tokens for at least 24 months.
## Market Data
- **Outcome:** Failed
- **Platform:** Futardio (MetaDAO Autocrat v0.3)
- **Proposal Account:** C61vTUyxTq5SWwbrTFEyYeXpGQLKhRRvRrGsu6YUa6CX
- **Created:** 2025-08-20
- **Completed:** 2025-08-23
- **Discussion:** https://research.sanctum.so/t/cloud-005-should-sanctum-offer-investors-early-unlocks-of-their-cloud-under-deliberation/1793
## Significance
This proposal represents an alternative to hedgeable time-based vesting: forfeit-for-liquidity creates direct economic cost for early unlock rather than relying on lockup periods that sophisticated investors can neutralize through derivatives. The 35% forfeit rate creates a revealed preference test—investors who accept it value liquidity more than the forfeited tokens, while those who decline signal confidence in long-term value. The failure suggests either the forfeit rate was insufficient to compensate for reduced alignment, or investors preferred maintaining their vesting schedules (possibly because they had already hedged their exposure).
The proposal also demonstrates futarchy governance applied to treasury and tokenomics decisions, where the market evaluates complex tradeoffs (reduced overhang vs immediate selling pressure vs team reserve growth) rather than simple binary choices.

## Summary
### 🎯 Key Points
The proposal aims to allow investors to unlock their vested CLOUD immediately by forfeiting 35% of their holdings to the Team Reserve, potentially increasing the reserve by up to 27 million CLOUD and reducing token overhang.
### 📊 Impact Analysis
#### 👥 Stakeholder Impact
Investors will gain immediate access to a portion of their CLOUD tokens, while the Sanctum Team will strengthen their reserve.
#### 📈 Upside Potential
This move could enhance liquidity and investor satisfaction by providing early access to funds while bolstering the Team Reserve.
#### 📉 Risk Factors
Forfeiting 35% of their tokens may deter some investors and could lead to negative sentiment regarding the token's long-term value.
## Content
9% of token supply from investors is currently unlocking monthly for next 24 months.
This proposal would empower the Sanctum Team to offer investors immediate unlocks of their vesting CLOUD, forfeiting 35% of their CLOUD to the Team Reserve (which the team undertakes not to redistribute for at least the next 24 months).
The net result would be an increase of up to 27 million additional CLOUD to the Team Reserve & a decreased token overhang.
