Has anyone tried to “swing” a vote with a ton of money? (Yes, share a bit about this event/The Ben Hawkins raid attempt)

What aspects of the system have proven more or less robust than expected based on this event?

What have been the most surprising learnings from seeing futarchy operate in practice rather than just theory?

Could you explain how futarchy fundamentally changes the relationship between majority and minority token holders compared to traditional DAO governance?

Youve mentioned in the past coin price is actually the optimal metric for futarchy to optimize for, contrary to some criticism. Why do you believe token price is the right objective function? What are the tradeoffs (if any)? Does optimizing for token price create any perverse incentives?

There's an interesting argument that futarchy could potentially lower costs compared to traditional legal mechanisms for resolving shareholder disputes. Could you expand on how futarchy might be more efficient than current systems?

AI is the hottest thing in crypto right now. How do you see the relationship between AI and futarchy developing?

From prediction to decision markets, the evolution from Polymarket-style prediction markets to actual decision-making. What are the key differences in designing markets for decisions vs. predictions? What have you learned from Polymarket's successes and limitations?
