## 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 $75K through Futardio for 6-month runway focused on marketing and team expansion. The protocol had already launched on mainnet with formal verification and audit completed, positioning the raise as growth capital rather than development funding. The proposal included detailed budget breakdown: $500-1500/month for infrastructure, $3K founder compensation, $2K marketing, $6K for 2-person marketing team, plus $5K flat for mainnet token bonding.
## Market Data
- **Outcome:** Failed (Refunding status)
- **Proposer:** mrsirg97-rgb
- **Duration:** 1 day (2026-03-05 to 2026-03-06)
- **Funding Target:** $75,000
- **Token:** 5pF
## Significance
This represents a post-launch fundraise on Futardio where the protocol had already shipped product (mainnet deployment, formal verification, audit, SDK, agent integrations). The rapid failure (1-day duration) and refunding status suggests market skepticism despite technical completeness, potentially indicating that Futardio markets price team credibility and traction over technical readiness. The detailed budget transparency (founder salary, marketing spend breakdown) did not overcome market hesitation.

# Torch Market
Torch Market is a Solana-based DeFi protocol combining swap, lending, liquidation, and yield features in a single formally verified protocol. Built on SPL token2022, it functions as both a launchpad and DeFi primitive with non-extractive design where economic actions flow back to the community. The protocol is designed for both human and AI agent users, with permissionless migration to DEX fully funded by token treasuries.

- **2026** — Launched on devnet/mainnet at version 3.7.10 with formal verification and audit completed
- **2026** — Released torchsdk on npm and clawhub agent skill achieving ~4K downloads

extraction_notes: "Source is a Futardio launch page for Torch Market fundraise. Primary extraction is entity data (new company + decision_market for the fundraise). No novel claims about futarchy mechanisms or market dynamics — this is a single failed raise with insufficient context for generalizable insights. The rapid failure (1 day) is notable but needs comparison data across multiple Futardio raises to claim a pattern. Extracted as entities only per significance threshold (real capital attempt, governance decision on platform)."
