Live data from the Futardio homepage, captured March 25, 2026.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Platform totals:**
|
||||||
|
- Total committed: $17.9M
|
||||||
|
- Total funders: 1,030
|
||||||
|
- Total launches: 52
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Active launch (1):**
|
||||||
|
- **Nvision** — "fairer prediction markets that reward conviction, not just insiders"
|
||||||
|
- Status: 18 hours remaining
|
||||||
|
- Committed: $99 toward a $50K goal
|
||||||
|
- Outcome: Effectively failing (0.2% of goal with 18 hours left)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Notable completed projects:**
|
||||||
|
- **Futardio Cult** ("the first futarchy governed meme coin"): $11.4M committed — 63.7% of all-time total
|
||||||
|
- **Superclaw** ("infra for autonomous, self-improving AI agents"): $6M committed — 33.5% of all-time total
|
||||||
|
- Remaining 50 launches combined: ~$500K — 2.8% of total
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Capital distribution:**
|
||||||
|
- Top 2 projects: $17.4M = 97.2% of total capital
|
||||||
|
- Average across 52 launches: $344K
|
||||||
|
- Median (implied): dramatically lower given concentration
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Average ticket size:** $17.9M / 1,030 funders = ~$17.4K average. Note: same funders may participate in multiple launches, so unique funder count may be lower and effective ticket size higher.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Notable project outcomes (from ecosystem coverage):**
|
||||||
|
- Superclaw: 11,902% overraised ($6M)
|
||||||
|
- Futardio Cult: 22,806% overraised ($11.4M)
|
||||||
|
- Most other launches: "Refunding" status (suggesting failed or completed)
|
||||||
|
- Nvision (current): $99 of $50K
|
||||||

## Agent Notes
|
||||||
|
**Why this matters:** The Futardio capital concentration data provides independent confirmation of the Session 6 "permissionless capital concentrates in meta-bets" observation. Two data points across two sessions form a pattern. The Nvision case (prediction-markets-for-conviction product, basically a futarchy-adjacent concept, raising $99) is particularly striking — the community that uses futarchy doesn't fund futarchy-adjacent infrastructure via the same mechanism.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**What surprised me:** The extreme concentration (64% in the governance token, 34% in AI agent infra) means Futardio's $17.9M figure is almost entirely explained by two projects. This isn't a launchpad portfolio — it's a fund that accidentally bought one governance token and one infrastructure project.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**What I expected but didn't find:** More distributed capital across the 52 launches. I expected the permissionless model to produce a long tail with some winners, like a decentralized VC portfolio. Instead it produced a power law with near-zero tail allocation. This is more extreme than even the Pareto distribution in traditional VC (where top 20% of investments typically return 80%).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**KB connections:**
|
||||||
|
- [[Futardio ecosystem]] (Session 6 archive) — this enriches the existing Session 6 observation with current data
|
||||||
|
- [[Permissionless capital formation]] — the capital concentration challenges the democratization thesis of removing gatekeepers
|
||||||
|
- [[MetaDAO ICO participant composition includes 30-40% passive allocators]] — related: both findings suggest futarchy-governed capital formation doesn't produce the idealized "aligned community of holders" that the ownership coins thesis predicts
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Extraction hints:**
|
||||||
|
1. CLAIM: Permissionless futarchy capital formation concentrates in platform meta-bets — documented evidence from Futardio's 52-launch portfolio
|
||||||
|
2. DATA POINT: Nvision ($99 of $50K) — a futarchy-adjacent product failing on a futarchy platform illustrates attention allocation problem
|
||||||
|
3. QUANTITATIVE: 97.2% concentration in 2 of 52 launches; compare to VC power laws and traditional crowdfunding distribution statistics
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Context:** Futardio is the parallel permissionless futarchy launchpad to MetaDAO's application-gated ICO platform. MetaDAO has application review (currently gated); Futardio has truly permissionless launches. The capital concentration finding may be specific to permissionless-mode operation — MetaDAO's gated structure may produce different distribution by filtering low-quality launches before market discovers them.

## Curator Notes
|
||||||
|
PRIMARY CONNECTION: Session 6 "permissionless capital concentrates in meta-bets" observation — this is the second independent data point
|
||||||
|
WHY ARCHIVED: Quantified evidence for the capital concentration pattern; Nvision failure adds textural detail
|
||||||
|
EXTRACTION HINT: Frame as a challenge to the "permissionless = democratized" assumption in the ownership capital thesis; connect to Belief #2 scope qualifier
