I won't go into details but anyone with rudimentary knowledge of cryptocurrencies can make sense of why the 2 facts shown below will make THEDAO a good arbitrage between BTC, ETH, Fiat, etc.

So what happens next? Everyone seeking a zero risk return will abstain from voting. If greater than 80% fall in this category, then nothing will pass.

Will there be any proposals in the first place? To prevent proposal spam all new proposals must make a deposit that gets forfeited if a quorum (20%) is not reached.

As it stands, the top 10 stake-holders own around 20% of The DAO Tokens. Assuming these members are actually interested in voting, quorum will be possible.

Also BTC, ETH have the 2 biggest marketcap and THEDAO might very end up being 3rd very soon.
