# IslandDAO: Implement 3-Week Vesting for DAO Payments
|
|
|
|
## Summary
|
|
Proposal to implement linear 3-week vesting for all DAO payments (rewards, compensation) via token streaming contracts. Aimed to reduce immediate sell pressure from 80% of payments being liquidated weekly (2,400 USDC of 3,000 USDC) to 33% weekly rate (1,000 USDC), a 58% reduction. Projected 15%-25% valuation increase through combined sell pressure reduction (10%-15% price impact) and improved market sentiment (5%-10% demand growth).
|
|
|
|
## Market Data
|
|
- **Outcome:** Passed
|
|
- **Proposer:** proPaC9tVZEsmgDtNhx15e7nSpoojtPD3H9h4GqSqB2
|
|
- **Resolution:** 2024-12-19
|
|
- **Pass Threshold:** 533,500 USDC MCAP (baseline 518,000 + 3%)
|
|
|
|
## Mechanism Details
|
|
- **Vesting Schedule:** Linear unvesting starting day 1 over 3 weeks
|
|
- **Implementation:** Token streaming contract
|
|
- **Target:** All DAO payments (rewards, compensation)
|
|
- **Rationale:** Discourage market manipulation, support price growth, align recipient incentives
|
|
|
|
## Significance
|
|
Demonstrates futarchy-governed treasury operations addressing sell pressure dynamics. The proposal included sophisticated market impact modeling: 80% immediate liquidation rate, weekly payment flows (3,000 USDC), sell pressure as percentage of market cap (0.81% reduction over 3 weeks), and price elasticity estimates (1%-2% supply reduction → 10%-20% price increase). Shows how DAOs use vesting as tokenomic stabilization rather than just alignment mechanism.

|
### Summary
|
|
Introduces a 3-week vesting period for all DAO payments, where payments unvest linearly starting from day 1.
|
|
|
|
### Rationale
|
|
1. Discourage Market Manipulation: Vesting prevents immediate liquidation
|
|
2. Support Price Growth: Slowed token release creates buffer period for price stabilization
|
|
|
|
### Implementation
|
|
- All payments vest over 3-week period with linear daily schedule
|
|
- Distributed via token streaming contract
|
|
|
|
### Valuation Assumptions
|
|
- Current selling pressure: 80% (2,400 USDC of 3,000 USDC weekly payments sold immediately)
|
|
- With vesting: only 33% liquidated each week (1,000 USDC), reducing sell pressure by 1,400 USDC/week
|
|
|
|
### Projected Outcomes
|
|
| Scenario | Price Increase | New Valuation | Increase |
|
|
|----------|---------------|---------------|----------|
|
|
| Conservative | 15% | 595.7k | 77.7k |
|
|
| Optimistic | 25% | 647.5k | 129.5k |
|
|
|
|
### TWAP Calculation
|
|
- Current MCAP + 3% = 518,000 + 15,540 = 533,500
