+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. The proposal included a 12-month linear vest through Streamflow and commitments to active governance participation, research publication, roadshow support, and policy guidance. This was Theia's second proposal to MetaDAO after an initial attempt.
 
 ## 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
+- **Premium:** 14% above spot price at proposal time
+- **Vesting:** 12-month linear vest 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.
+This proposal demonstrates MetaDAO's ability to execute strategic OTC deals with institutional investors at premium valuations. The 14% premium and structured vesting indicate market confidence in META's long-term value. Theia's value-add commitments (governance participation, research, roadshows, policy support) represent a model for strategic investor relationships beyond pure capital provision.
 
-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.
+The proposal included extensive references from other portfolio companies (Kamino, Metaplex) and MetaDAO founders, suggesting institutional validation of Theia's strategic partner model. The $500K capital injection was earmarked for hiring senior engineering talent, seeding market liquidity, and expanding business development.
