- Proposer: proPaC9tVZEsmgDtNhx15e7nSpoojtPD3H9h4GqSqB2
- Proposal Number: 10
- Completed: 2025-01-30
- Amount: $500,000 USDC for 370.370 META tokens
- Price: $1,350 per META (14% premium to spot)

Significance
This represents institutional validation of MetaDAO's futarchy governance model from a liquid token fund manager. Theia's investment thesis explicitly cited MetaDAO's commitment to futarchy and the quality of the founding team. The premium pricing and long-term vesting demonstrate conviction in the governance mechanism beyond speculative trading.
The proposal also highlights capital allocation priorities for MetaDAO: hiring senior engineers, seeding market liquidity, and expanding business development to onboard more DAOs to the futarchy platform.
