MetaDAO: Migrate Autocrat Program to v0.2?

Summary & Connections

Proposal 16 — major Autocrat v0.2 upgrade. Three new features: (1) reclaimable rent — get back ~4 SOL per proposal market creation, (2) conditional token merging — 1 pTOKEN + 1 fTOKEN = 1 TOKEN, improving liquidity with multiple active proposals, (3) conditional token metadata — tokens show names/logos in wallets instead of random mints. Config changes: pass threshold 5%→3%, TWAP default $100, $5 increments for manipulation resistance, lot size 1→0.1 META. All programs verified by OtterSec.

Outcome: Passed (~2024-04-01).

Connections:

  • The v0.1 → v0.2 migration addresses the specific problems identified in metadao-develop-amm-program-for-futarchy — particularly the state rent costs (reclaimable rent) and manipulation resistance (TWAP $5 increments)
  • Conditional token merging solves a capital efficiency problem: before this, having multiple active proposals fragmented liquidity because tokens were locked in each proposal's conditional vault
  • Pass threshold lowered from 5% to 3% — makes it easier for proposals to pass, reflecting confidence in the mechanism's maturity
  • This is the version that ran through the entire Q3 2024 - early 2025 period, including all the OTC trades, FaaS launch, and early ICOs
  • Unlike v0.1 migration (metadao-migrate-autocrat-v01), this one was verified by OtterSec — counterparty risk concern resolved

Overview

It's time to upgrade futarchy!

This upgrade includes three new features and a number of smaller config changes.

The features:

  • Reclaimable rent: you will now be able to get back the ~4 SOL used to create OpenBook proposal markets. This should lower the friction involved in creating proposals.
  • Conditional token merging: now, if you have 1 pTOKEN and 1 fTOKEN, you'll be able to merge them back into 1 TOKEN. This should help with liquidity when there are multiple proposals active at once.
  • Conditional token metadata: before, you would see conditional tokens in your wallet as random mint addresses. After this is merged, you should be able to see token names and logos, helping you identify what proposal they're a part of.

The config changes:

  • Lower pass threshold from 5% to 3%
  • Set default TWAP value to $100 instead of $1
  • Update TWAP in $5 increments instead of 1% increments, which enhances manipulation resistance while allowing the TWAP to be more accurate
  • Change minimum META lot sizes from 1 META to 0.1 META

The instruction attached to this proposal will migrate MetaDAO's assets over to the new autocrat program.
