MetaDAO, a crypto group focused on revolutionizing governance through markets-based decision-making, has hired Robin Hanson, the creator of futarchy, as a paid advisor. Futarchy is based on the belief that markets are better at determining optimal outcomes than politicians. MetaDAO employed this approach by creating markets where traders could speculate on the price of META tokens if Hanson were hired, ultimately deciding that his participation would be beneficial to the project. Hanson's role will primarily involve mechanism design and strategy advice, and he may also co-author blog posts on "new futarchic mechanisms" with MetaDAO. MetaDAO's governance markets have gained popularity within the Solana ecosystem.
