As of Q1 2026, MetaDAO's ICO launchpad remains application-gated, not permissionless. Shoal.gg explicitly identifies 'permissionless launches' as a near-term catalyst (future state), not current operational reality. This contradicts the 'permissionless' framing in existing KB claims about MetaDAO's capital formation layer.

Blockworks article states futarchy 'needs one great success to become Solana's go-to governance model,' implying no canonical success story exists yet despite 8 ICOs completed. This absence of a breakthrough case is a distinct adoption friction beyond the psychological and technical barriers already documented.

Ranger Finance case shows futarchy can succeed at ordinal selection (this project vs. others for fundraising) while failing at cardinal prediction (what will the token price be post-TGE given unlock schedules). The market selected Ranger successfully for ICO but didn't price in the 40% seed unlock creating 74-90% drawdown, suggesting the mechanism works for relative comparison but not for absolute outcome forecasting when structural features like vesting schedules matter.

No systematic comparison of futarchy-selected vs. non-futarchy ICOs on matched metrics exists in the literature as of Q1 2026. Without controlled comparisons, claims about futarchy's selection advantage remain theoretical, not empirical. The $390M committed vs. $25.6M raised oversubscription data shows demand but not relative performance.
