## Governance
|
|
|
|
**Futarchy Implementation:**
|
|
- Monthly budget: $34K (adjustable only via futarchy governance markets)
|
|
- Treasury spending requires market-based approval
|
|
- Structural changes require conditional market consensus
|
|
- "Unruggable ICO" mechanism prevents team treasury extraction
|
|
|
|
## Context
|
|
|
|
**MetaDAO Ecosystem Position:**
|
|
- Previous largest raises: P2P.me ($5.2M), Ranger Finance ($9.1M)
|
|
- Umbra's $3M cap raised total MetaDAO AUF to ~$60.3M
|
|
- $155M in commitments represents 52x the cap, indicating severe supply constraint
