# Dean's List: Enhancing The Dean's List DAO Economic Model
|
|
|
|
## Summary
|
|
The proposal restructured Dean's List DAO's payment model to charge clients in USDC, use 80% of revenue to purchase $DEAN tokens for citizen payments, and retain 20% DAO tax in USDC as treasury hedge. The model aims to create structural buy pressure on $DEAN while maintaining operational stability through stablecoin reserves.

|
## Market Data
|
|
- **Outcome:** Passed
|
|
- **Proposer:** IslandDAO
|
|
- **Resolution Date:** 2024-07-22
|
|
- **Baseline Metrics:** $337,074 FDV, 500 USDC daily volume, 100M $DEAN circulating supply
|
|
- **Projected Impact:** 5.33% FDV increase (from $337,074 to $355,028)
|
|
|
|
## Mechanism Details
|
|
The proposal introduced asymmetric treasury flows:
|
|
- Client payments: 2,500 USDC per dApp review
|
|
- DAO tax: 20% (500 USDC) retained in USDC
|
|
- Token buyback: 80% (2,000 USDC) used to purchase $DEAN
|
|
- Citizen payments: Distributed in $DEAN tokens
|
|
- Projected volume: 6 reviews/month = 15,000 USDC monthly revenue
|
|
|
|
The model assumes 80% of $DEAN recipients immediately sell, creating 448k $DEAN sell pressure against 560k $DEAN buy pressure, resulting in net positive price impact.
|
|
|
|
## Significance
|
|
This proposal represents a novel DAO treasury architecture that separates operational stability (USDC reserves) from token price exposure (citizen compensation). The asymmetric tax retention creates a structural hedge while the buyback mechanism generates continuous buy pressure. The model passed MetaDAO's 3% TWAP threshold with projected 5.33% FDV increase, demonstrating how futarchy governance shapes economic model design around quantifiable price impact metrics.
