IslandDAO: Implement 3-Week Vesting for DAO Payments

Summary

Proposal to implement linear 3-week vesting for all DAO payments (rewards, compensation) via token streaming contracts. Aimed to reduce immediate sell pressure from 80% of payments being liquidated weekly (2,400 USDC of 3,000 USDC) to 33% weekly rate (1,000 USDC), a 58% reduction. Projected 15%-25% valuation increase through combined sell pressure reduction (10%-15% price impact) and improved market sentiment (5%-10% demand growth).

Market Data

  • Outcome: Passed
  • Proposer: proPaC9tVZEsmgDtNhx15e7nSpoojtPD3H9h4GqSqB2
  • Resolution: 2024-12-19
  • Pass Threshold: 533,500 USDC MCAP (baseline 518,000 + 3%)

Mechanism Details

  • Vesting Schedule: Linear unvesting starting day 1 over 3 weeks
  • Implementation: Token streaming contract
  • Target: All DAO payments (rewards, compensation)
  • Rationale: Discourage market manipulation, support price growth, align recipient incentives

Significance

Demonstrates futarchy-governed treasury operations addressing sell pressure dynamics. The proposal included sophisticated market impact modeling: 80% immediate liquidation rate, weekly payment flows (3,000 USDC), sell pressure as percentage of market cap (0.81% reduction over 3 weeks), and price elasticity estimates (1%-2% supply reduction → 10%-20% price increase). Shows how DAOs use vesting as tokenomic stabilization rather than just alignment mechanism.

Summary

Introduces a 3-week vesting period for all DAO payments, where payments unvest linearly starting from day 1.

Rationale

  1. Discourage Market Manipulation: Vesting prevents immediate liquidation
  2. Support Price Growth: Slowed token release creates buffer period for price stabilization

Implementation

  • All payments vest over 3-week period with linear daily schedule
  • Distributed via token streaming contract

Valuation Assumptions

  • Current selling pressure: 80% (2,400 USDC of 3,000 USDC weekly payments sold immediately)
  • With vesting: only 33% liquidated each week (1,000 USDC), reducing sell pressure by 1,400 USDC/week

Projected Outcomes

Scenario Price Increase New Valuation Increase
Conservative 15% 595.7k 77.7k
Optimistic 25% 647.5k 129.5k

TWAP Calculation

  • Current MCAP + 3% = 518,000 + 15,540 = 533,500
