# Dean's List: Approve Treasury De-Risking Strategy
## Summary
Dean's List DAO approved converting its treasury ($75,000-$87,000 at $350 SOL) from volatile SOL and SPL token holdings into stablecoins to reduce risk and extend operational runway. The proposal argued this would increase probability of DAO survival from 50% to 90% and boost FDV by 5-20% through improved market confidence in financial prudence.
## Market Data
- **Outcome:** Passed
- **Proposal Account:** 4gaJ8bi1gpNEx6xSSsepjVBM6GXqTDfLbiUbzXbARHW1
- **Duration:** 2024-12-02 to 2024-12-05
## Significance
Demonstrates futarchy-governed treasury risk management where the market validated a conservative financial strategy. The explicit framing of survival probability (50% → 90%) and FDV impact scenarios shows sophisticated quantitative governance reasoning for a small DAO.
## Relationship to KB
- [[deans-list]] — parent entity, treasury management
- [[futarchy-governed DAOs converge on traditional corporate governance scaffolding for treasury operations because market mechanisms alone cannot provide operational security and legal compliance]] — treasury management pattern

### Impact of De-Risking DL DAO Treasury on Longevity and FDV
#### 1. Longevity Analysis
Treasury valued between $75,000 and $87,000 at $350 SOL (without DEAN in consideration), proposed to be converted into stablecoins.
- Before de-risking: 50% survival probability (subject to market volatility)
- After de-risking: 90% survival probability (stable reserves secured)
- De-risking increases probability of DAO longevity by 40 percentage points
#### 2. Impact on Fully Diluted Valuation
Current FDV: $500,000 (Conservative to accommodate proposal duration)
- Low Confidence Boost (5%): Updated FDV = $525,000
- High Confidence Boost (20%): Updated FDV = $600,000
#### 3. TWAP Calculation
DL DAO FDV: $500,000 → DL DAO FDV + 3%: $515,000
