# MetaDAO: Swap $150,000 into ISC
## Summary & Connections
**Swap 6.8% of treasury ($150K USDC) into ISC — inflation-resistant stable currency.** Collateralized by basket: 20% cash, 20% commodities, 20% treasuries, 20% bonds, 20% equities. Jupiter DCA: 10 orders, 1hr intervals, $1.70-$1.90 price range. ISC team commits to use MetaDAO futarchy for governance.
**Outcome:** Passed (~2024-11-02).
**Connections:**
- First MetaDAO treasury diversification beyond USDC — the market approved non-USD denominated reserves
- The "dollar has lost 17.8% of its value since 2020" framing is a macro thesis embedded in a treasury proposal
- ISC's commitment to use MetaDAO futarchy for governance is a customer acquisition deal disguised as a treasury swap — evidence of the [[metadao-develop-faas]] business model working (DAOs adopt futarchy through partnership)
- [[ownership coin treasuries should be actively managed through buybacks and token sales as continuous capital calibration not treated as static war chests]] — diversification is active management
- [[isc-stablecoin]] — the asset acquired

## Full Proposal Text
### Type
Operations Direct Action
### Author(s)

### Overview
MetaDAO has approximately $2.2M in USDC in its treasury.
This poses a risk to the DAO given that the US Dollar has been losing value at an increasing rate. The dollar has lost 17.8% of its value since 2020. Due to the debt situation, we don't expect this to be resolved soon, if ever.
$ISC was built specifically to solve this issue. ISC is an inflation-resistant stable currency built on Solana. It was launched at the Solana Hacker House in HCMC on 2023-03-17 at a price of $1.545. It is now trading at $1.81.
Not pegged to USD, ISC is collateralized by a basket of financial assets. This basket consists of 20% cash, 20% commodities, 20% treasuries, 20% bonds, and 20% equities.
If the proposal passes, MetaDAO will swap 150,000 USDC of its treasury (~6.8%) for ISC.
Details:
MetaDAO would execute a DCA order on jup.ag using the following parameters:
- Amount: 150,000 USDC
- To buy: ISC
- Every: 1 hours
- Over: 10 orders
- Min price: 1.7
- Max Price: 1.9
The ISC team would encourage other DAOs to use MetaDAO Futarchy for similar treasury swap proposals. This could easily turn into a win-win-win.
Once the ISC DAO is set up, ISC would commit to use MetaDAO for part of its governance. Example proposals:
- Remove Freeze authority
- Changes in the basket
Potential advantages:
- MetaDAO maintains its treasury value over time
- Promotes other new Solana-native projects
- Showcase a simple Futarchy proposal for other DAOs to follow
