# Omnipair is a billion dollar protocol if they can scale permissionless leverage
Cory's conviction, staked with medium confidence on 2026-03-07.
The thesis: permissionless leverage on metaDAO ecosystem tokens catalyzes trading volume and price discovery. More volume makes futarchy markets more liquid. More liquid markets make governance decisions higher quality. The flywheel: leverage → volume → liquidity → governance signal → more valuable coins → more leverage demand.
The conditional: "if they can scale." Permissionless leverage is hard — it requires deep liquidity, robust liquidation mechanisms, and resistance to cascading failures. The rate controller design (Rakka 2026) addresses some of this, but production-scale stress testing hasn't happened yet.

Relevant Notes:
- [[permissionless leverage on metaDAO ecosystem tokens catalyzes trading volume and price discovery that strengthens governance by making futarchy markets more liquid]] — the existing claim this conviction amplifies
- [[MetaDAOs futarchy implementation shows limited trading volume in uncontested decisions]] — the problem leverage could solve
