MetaDAO: Create Spot Market for META?
Summary
This proposal initiated the creation of a spot market for $META tokens to establish broader public access and liquidity. The mechanism involved selling tokens at the Time-Weighted Average Price (TWAP) of the passing proposal, with a $75K hard cap on the sale and approximately $35K allocated to creating a liquidity pool. The proposal passed and completed on 2024-01-18.

- LP Allocation: ~$35,000

Mechanism Design
The proposal used TWAP-based pricing to prevent gaming and front-running. Token sale proceeds were split between liquidity pool creation ($35K) and operational funding in $SOL tokens (remainder). The proposal included a failure contingency: if rejected, MetaDAO would be unable to raise from public markets until March 12, 2024.
Significance
This was MetaDAO's third proposal and represented a critical fundraising and liquidity establishment event. The TWAP pricing mechanism demonstrated futarchy's application to token sale pricing, avoiding the instantaneous arbitrage problems of fixed-price launches. The proposal's structure created a credible commitment mechanism through the market-determined price.
