 In uncontested decisions -- where the community broadly agrees on the right outcome -- trading volume drops to minimal levels. Without genuine disagreement, there are few natural counterparties. Trading these markets in any size becomes a negative expected value proposition because there is no one on the other side to trade against profitably. The system tends to be dominated by a small group of sophisticated traders who actively monitor for manipulation attempts, with broader participation remaining low.
 
+**March 2026 comparative data (@01Resolved forensics):** The Ranger liquidation decision market — a highly contested proposal — generated $119K volume from 33 unique traders with 92.41% pass alignment. Solomon's treasury subcommittee proposal (DP-00001) — an uncontested procedural decision — generated only $5.79K volume at ~50% pass. The volume differential (~20x) between contested and uncontested proposals confirms the pattern: futarchy markets are efficient information aggregators when there's genuine disagreement, but offer little incentive for participation when outcomes are obvious. This is a feature, not a bug — capital is allocated to decisions where information matters, not wasted on consensus.

 This evidence has direct implications for governance design. It suggests that [[optimal governance requires mixing mechanisms because different decisions have different manipulation risk profiles]] -- futarchy excels precisely where disagreement and manipulation risk are high, but it wastes its protective power on consensual decisions. The MetaDAO experience validates the mixed-mechanism thesis: use simpler mechanisms for uncontested decisions and reserve futarchy's complexity for decisions where its manipulation resistance actually matters. The participation challenge also highlights a design tension: the mechanism that is most resistant to manipulation is also the one that demands the most sophistication from participants.
