MetaDAO — entity formation
Form a futarchy-governed MetaDAO entity
The MetaDAO page is a narrow, single-purpose integration: it forms the legal entity for a token launched through MetaDAO. It is not a governance or prediction-market surface — it does one thing, once.
When you'd use it
You would not navigate to this page directly. You arrive at it from the MetaDAO launch flow, via a link that carries the details of your token and enterprise. Opening the page without those details just shows an error.
What it does
The page presents a formation agreement for your entity — specifically a Segregated Portfolio of a Futarchy Governance SPC, a Cayman Islands structure. Almost every field is pre-filled and locked, carried over from the MetaDAO form:
the enterprise and company name,
the company type (a segregated portfolio of a segregated portfolio company),
the jurisdiction (Cayman Islands),
the token name and ticker,
the founder/operator address (set to the wallet you connect),
the network (Base).
The only fields you fill in are the founder/operator name and contact details. The agreement itself is shown alongside the form for review.
The steps
Arrive from the MetaDAO launch flow (the page opens with your details already populated) and connect your wallet — it becomes the operator address.
Enter the founder/operator name and contact details.
Sign the formation agreement — a free signature.
form cyberCORP. MetaLeX submits the formation transaction and pays the gas — you pay nothing.
A Formation Summary page confirms the cyberCORP was minted: the entity's details, the operator account, the network, and links to the executed Formation Agreement and Board Resolutions. Bookmark it — then Back to MetaDAO returns you to continue the launch.
Right after formation the summary data can lag the chain by a minute; if so, the page says the summary is still syncing and asks you to refresh — the formation itself has already succeeded.
That's the whole flow. Once the entity is formed, you manage it like any other cyberCORP — see The cyberCORPs app.
Under the hood
Submitting forms a cyberCORP structured as a Cayman Segregated Portfolio Company, and anchors two documents: the formation agreement and the board resolutions. At the protocol level this is the MetaDAO / SPC path — see the MetaDAOFactory reference and, for how a single legal entity can hold multiple independently-governed portfolios, Legal mappings across jurisdictions. The futarchy governance of the entity happens on MetaDAO's own platform; this page only handles the onchain legal-entity formation.
Good to know
This page is a handoff, not an app you spend time in.
Formation costs you no gas — MetaLeX submits the transaction.
For everything you do after formation — issuing securities, raising — you use the cyberCORPs app and cyberRAISE like any other company.
