Dean's List: Enhancing The Dean's List DAO Economic Model
Summary
The proposal restructures The Dean's List DAO's payment model to charge clients in USDC, use 80% of revenue to purchase $DEAN tokens, distribute those tokens to DAO citizens as payment, and retain 20% DAO tax in USDC. The model aims to create consistent buy pressure on $DEAN while hedging treasury against token volatility.
Market Data
- Outcome: Passed
- Proposer: IslandDAO
- Resolution: 2024-07-22
- Proposal Account: 5c2XSWQ9rVPge2Umoz1yenZcAwRaQS5bC4i4w87B1WUp
Economic Model
- Revenue Structure: 2500 USDC per dApp review, targeting 6 reviews monthly (15,000 USDC/month)
- Tax Split: 20% to treasury in USDC (3,000 USDC/month), 80% to $DEAN purchases (12,000 USDC/month)
- Daily Flow: 400 USDC daily purchases → ~118,694 $DEAN tokens
- Sell Pressure: Assumes 80% of distributed tokens sold by contributors (94,955 $DEAN daily)
- Net Impact: Modeled 5.33% FDV increase vs 3% TWAP requirement
Significance
This proposal demonstrates futarchy pricing a specific operational business model with quantified buy/sell pressure dynamics. The structured approach—USDC revenue → token purchases → contributor distribution → partial sell-off—creates a measurable feedback loop between DAO operations and token price. The 20% USDC tax hedge shows hybrid treasury management within futarchy governance.
