MetaDAO: Hire Robin Hanson as Advisor
Summary & Connections
Proposal 12 (Autocrat v0.3) — the inventor of futarchy becomes advisor to its most advanced implementation. 0.1% of supply (20.9 META) vested over 2 years. Scope: mechanism design, strategy, co-authoring blog posts and whitepapers on new futarchic mechanisms. Early termination by Robin, MetaDAO, or Proph3t+Kollan unanimously.
Outcome: Passed (2025-02-13).
Connections:
- The "shared liquidity AMM" concept mentioned in the proposal — where META/USDC liquidity can be used in both pMETA/pUSDC and fMETA/fUSDC conditional markets — became shared-liquidity-amms-could-solve-futarchy-capital-inefficiency-by-routing-base-pair-deposits-into-all-derived-conditional-token-markets
- 0.1% allocation (20.9 META) is modest vs the co-founder 10% each — appropriate for advisory, and the market approved it quickly
- This hire created a theory-practice feedback loop: the mechanism's inventor helping refine its most advanced production implementation
- First major academic figure (GMU professor, >10,000 citations) hired through futarchic governance — institutional credibility signal
- Later led to metadao-fund-futarchy-research-hanson-gmu (META-036, $80K for academic research at GMU) — the advisory relationship evolved into formal research funding

Overview
Robin Hanson's help has been integral thus far. Specifically, his insights on futarchy mechanism design have helped us design a more compelling and capital-efficient product.
We would like to extend an offer for him to become an advisor to MetaDAO.
Scope of Work
The scope of work would primarily be mechanism design and strategy advice.
We would also likely want to co-author blog posts / whitepapers that explain new futarchic mechanisms. For example, we've been thinking about a new 'shared liquidity AMM' design where people provide META/USDC liquidity and it can be used in pMETA/pUSDC and fMETA/fUSDC markets, which we'll want to write something about.
Compensation
We propose to pay Robin 0.1% of the supply (20.9 META) vested over 2 years.
Early termination
Either Robin, MetaDAO, or Proph3t and Kollan in unanimous agreement would be able to cancel this agreement, at which point any unvested tokens (minus the amount for the current month) would be forfeited.

Relationship to KB
- metadao — parent entity, advisory hire
- metadao-fund-futarchy-research-hanson-gmu — later evolution from advisory to funded research
- shared-liquidity-amms-could-solve-futarchy-capital-inefficiency-by-routing-base-pair-deposits-into-all-derived-conditional-token-markets — Hanson-Proph3t collaboration concept mentioned here
- futarchy implementations must simplify theoretical mechanisms for production adoption because original designs include impractical elements that academics tolerate but users reject — Hanson bridges theory and implementation
