How Futarchy Ends the Rug Pull Era | Felipe Montealegre & Proph3t
Description
Futarchy flips governance on its head—decisions aren’t voted on, they’re traded on.
In this conversation with Felipe Montealegre of Thea Research and Proph3t, co-founder of MetaDAO, we explore how market-driven governance can eliminate the token “rug pull” problem, create true shareholder protections on-chain, and unlock the next era of crypto capital markets.
From prediction markets and token design to MetaDAO’s “ownership coins,” this is how futarchy could make crypto investable again.
