MetaDAO: Develop a Saber Vote Market?
Summary
Proposal to build a vote market platform for Saber's veSBR token holders, enabling them to earn yield by selling their governance votes while allowing projects to purchase liquidity more efficiently. The platform would be funded with $150K from ecosystem partners (UXD, BlazeStake, LP Finance, Saber) with MetaDAO owning 65% of the platform.

Significance
This proposal represents MetaDAO's pivot from the original Marinade vote market (Proposal 0) to Saber after Marinade developed an internal solution. It demonstrates MetaDAO's strategy of building governance infrastructure for DeFi protocols while generating revenue through take rates on vote trading volume. The proposal includes detailed financial modeling based on Curve/Convex/Aura comparables and emphasizes legitimacy-building through partnerships with established Solana projects.
