# MetaDAO Omnibus Proposal — Migrate DAO Program and Update Legal Documents
**Proposal ID:** Bzoap95gjbokTaiEqwknccktfNSvkPe4ZbAdcJF1yiEK
**Date:** March 23-25, 2026
**Status:** Active (84% pass probability as of March 23)
**Market Volume:** $408K
## Overview
MetaDAO's "Omnibus Proposal — Migrate and Update" combines technical infrastructure migration with legal document updates. As of March 23, 2026, the proposal had reached 84% likelihood to pass with $408K in governance market volume, making it the most active recent governance event.
## Technical Components
### Program Migration
- Migration from autocrat v0.5.0 to newer version (specific version not confirmed)
- Integration of Squads v4.0 (AGPLv3) multisig infrastructure
- GitHub commit activity updated March 18, 2026
### Architectural Implications
The Squads multisig integration suggests structural separation between:
- **Futarchy-governed decisions:** Strategic treasury allocation, major proposals
- **Multisig-controlled execution:** Operational security, legal compliance
This architecture may address the "execution velocity" problem that the BDF3M (Session 11) temporarily solved through human delegation, providing a permanent structural solution.
## Legal Updates
Scope of legal document updates not specified in available sources. May relate to:
- Entity structure refinement (per Ooki DAO precedent)
- Howey test considerations
- Operational compliance frameworks
## Historical Context
MetaDAO has executed multiple autocrat program migrations:
- v0.1 → v0.2 (2023-12-03)
- v0.2 update (2024-03-28)
- v0.5.0 → current migration (2026-03)
Each migration has addressed operational issues or mechanism vulnerabilities discovered post-deployment.
## Market Signal
The 84% pass probability with $408K volume indicates strong community consensus that the changes are beneficial. This represents high confidence in both the technical improvements and legal updates.
## Significance
This proposal represents MetaDAO's continued iteration on futarchy infrastructure, balancing:
- Mechanism purity (conditional markets for governance)
- Operational pragmatism (multisig for execution)
- Legal compliance (entity structure updates)
The high market confidence suggests the community views this as a necessary evolution rather than a compromise of futarchy principles.

## Notes
Full proposal text was inaccessible due to 429 rate-limiting on MetaDAO's platform. This summary is reconstructed from indirect sources and technical context. A complete extraction should be performed once direct access is available.

description: Configurable proposal slots with three-day default compress feedback loops in futarchy governance
confidence: experimental
source: MetaDAO Autocrat v0.1 proposal, December 2023
created: 2026-03-15

# MetaDAO Autocrat v0.1 reduces proposal duration to three days enabling faster governance iteration
The Autocrat v0.1 upgrade introduces configurable slots per proposal with a default of 3 days, explicitly designed to "allow for quicker feedback loops." This represents a significant reduction from previous implementations and addresses a key friction point in futarchy adoption: the time cost of decision-making. The proposal passed and migrated 990,000 META, 10,025 USDC, and 5.5 SOL to the new program, demonstrating community acceptance of faster iteration cycles. The architectural change makes proposal duration a parameter rather than a constant, allowing MetaDAO to tune the speed-quality tradeoff based on empirical results. This matters because governance mechanism adoption depends on matching decision velocity to organizational needs—too slow and participants route around the system, too fast and markets cannot aggregate information effectively.
### Additional Evidence (confirm)
*Source: [[2025-10-15-futardio-proposal-lets-get-futarded]] | Added: 2026-03-15*
Coal's v0.6 parameters set proposal length at 3 days with 1-day TWAP delay, confirming this as the standard configuration for Autocrat v0.6 implementations. The combination of 1-day TWAP delay plus 3-day proposal window creates a 4-day total decision cycle.

### Auto-enrichment (near-duplicate conversion, similarity=1.00)
*Source: PR #1939 — "metadao autocrat v01 reduces proposal duration to three days enabling faster governance iteration"*
*Auto-converted by substantive fixer. Review: revert if this evidence doesn't belong here.*
{"action": "flag_duplicate", "candidates": ["decisions/internet-finance/metadao-governance-migration-2026-03.md", "domains/internet-finance/metadao-autocrat-migration-accepted-counterparty-risk-from-unverifiable-builds-prioritizing-iteration-speed-over-security-guarantees.md", "domains/internet-finance/futarchy-governed-daos-converge-on-traditional-corporate-governance-scaffolding-for-treasury-operations-because-market-mechanisms-alone-cannot-provide-operational-security-and-legal-compliance.md"], "reasoning": "The new decision file `metadao-omnibus-migration-proposal-march-2026.md` is a substantive duplicate of `decisions/internet-finance/metadao-governance-migration-2026-03.md`. The reviewer explicitly states that the new file should be merged into the existing one. The enrichment added to `metadao-autocrat-v01-reduces-proposal-duration-to-three-days-enabling-faster-governance-iteration.md` is misplaced. The reviewer suggests it would be more appropriate for `metadao-autocrat-migration-accepted-counterparty-risk-from-unverifiable-builds-prioritizing-iteration-speed-over-security-guarantees.md` due to the iterative migration pattern and community consensus superseding uncertainty. Additionally, the Squads v4.0 integration identified in the source directly extends `futarchy-governed-daos-converge-on-traditional-corporate-governance-scaffolding-for-treasury-operations-because-market-mechanisms-alone-cannot-provide-operational-security-and-legal-compliance.md` by providing a structural fix for the execution velocity problem."}
