 ## Competitive Position
 - **Unique mechanism**: Only launch platform with futarchy-governed accountability and treasury return guarantees
 - **vs pump.fun**: pump.fun is memecoin launch (zero accountability, pure speculation). Futardio is ownership coin launch (futarchy governance, treasury enforcement). Different categories despite both being "launch platforms."

+# Torch Market: Futardio Fundraise
+
+## Summary
+Torch Market attempted to raise $75,000 through Futardio to fund a 6-month runway covering infrastructure, founder compensation, marketing team (2 people), and 50 SOL for mainnet token bonding. The fundraise entered refunding status after one day, closing on 2026-03-06.
+
+## Market Data
+- **Outcome:** Failed (Refunding)
+- **Target:** $75,000
+- **Duration:** 1 day (2026-03-05 to 2026-03-06)
+- **Token:** 5pF
+- **Platform Version:** v0.7
+
+## Significance
+This represents an early-stage DeFi protocol attempting to use futarchy-governed fundraising for operational capital. The rapid failure (1 day to refunding) suggests either insufficient market interest, timing issues, or concerns about the project's viability despite its formal verification and existing traction (4K Clawhub downloads).

+# Torch Market
+
+Torch Market is a DeFi protocol combining swap, lending, liquidation, and yield features in a single on-chain protocol designed for both human and AI agent users. The protocol is formally verified (48/48 Kani proof harnesses) and has been audited. It launched on Solana devnet/mainnet with an open-source SDK (torchsdk on npm with ~4K downloads via Clawhub agent skill). The protocol is designed to be non-extractive with economic flows returning to the community, and features permissionless migration to DEX funded by token treasuries.

No extractable claims — this is purely factual data about a failed fundraise. The rapid failure (1 day) is notable but insufficient evidence alone to support broader claims about futarchy fundraising dynamics without additional context or pattern data."
