# Epic Finance

Epic Finance was a futarchy-governed fundraise on Futardio that failed to achieve meaningful traction. The project targeted $50,000 in funding but raised only $2 before entering refunding status within 24 hours. The team description consisted of placeholder text ("We Mark Down / The markdown. I need some help with AI."), suggesting the launch was either a test, abandoned project, or non-serious attempt.
