# MetaDAO: Develop Multi-Option Proposals?
|
|
|
|
## Summary
|
|
Proposal by agrippa to build multi-option proposal functionality for MetaDAO's futarchy implementation, enabling proposals with multiple mutually-exclusive outcomes rather than binary Pass/Fail. Requested 200 META distributed across four development milestones. The proposal failed despite the proposer's technical credentials and detailed value argument.
|
|
|
|
## Market Data
|
|
- **Outcome:** Failed
|
|
- **Proposer:** agrippa (99dZcXhrYgEmHeMKAb9ezPaBqgMdg1RjCGSfHa7BeQEX)
|
|
- **Proposal account:** J7dWFgSSuMg3BNZBAKYp3AD5D2yuaaLUmyKqvxBZgHht
|
|
- **Created:** 2024-02-20
|
|
- **Completed:** 2024-02-25
|
|
|
|
## Compensation Structure
|
|
- **Total:** 200 META across 4 milestones
|
|
- **Milestone 1:** 50 META upon passage
|
|
- **Milestone 2:** 50 META upon completing multi-modal conditional vault program
|
|
- **Milestone 3:** 50 META upon integrating futarch with multi-modal vaults
|
|
- **Milestone 4:** 50 META upon frontend integration
|
|
- **Oversight:** 3/5 multisig (Proph3t, DeanMachine, 0xNallok, LegalizeOnionFutures, sapphire)
|
|
- **Multisig compensation:** 2.5 META per member upon passage
|
|
|
|
## Proposer Background
|
|
- Led development on Solana Labs governance-ui (Realms frontend) for one year
|
|
- Developed first conditional tokens vault on Solana (FTX-funded precogparty project)
|
|
- Started one of the first high-school blockchain clubs (2014)
|
|
- Research at Cornell's Initiative for Cryptocurrency and Contracts
|
|
- Invited to 2017 smart contract summit in China (with Vitalik)
|
|
|
|
## Value Argument
|
|
Proposer estimated +12.1% value to MetaDAO from:
|
|
- +5% from exponential increase in decision-making bandwidth
|
|
- +5% from solving pork barrel problem through draft-stage alternatives
|
|
- +2% from governance innovation hype
|
|
- +0.1% from fee revenue on conditional vault usage by other protocols
|
|
|
|
With 14,416 META circulating supply, proposer calculated feature worth 1,744 META dilution, requesting 200 META (11.5% of estimated value).
|
|
|
|
## Significance
|
|
This proposal is significant for mechanism design evolution in futarchy. It represents an attempt to expand futarchy from binary decisions to multi-option selection, addressing a fundamental limitation in the original Hanson design. The failure suggests either market skepticism about the value proposition, concerns about execution risk, or liquidity constraints in the conditional markets.
|
|
|
|
The detailed technical specification and value quantification represent a high-quality proposal format that became a template for later MetaDAO proposals.
