+# Permissioned launch curation creates implicit endorsement liability for futarchy platforms because each approval decision is evidence of gatekeeper responsibility that regulators can use to impose due diligence obligations
+
+When a futarchy platform actively decides which projects can launch (permissioned model), each approval becomes an act of endorsement that creates legal liability beyond what a purely permissionless mechanism would carry. The distinction matters because regulators and investors can point to the curation process as evidence that the platform is acting as a gatekeeper with implicit due diligence responsibilities. This is structurally different from a neutral protocol that allows any project to launch without intervention. The permissioned approach may make business sense for reputation management and quality control, but it transforms the platform's legal posture from infrastructure provider to active intermediary. Each rejected project becomes evidence that the platform was exercising judgment, and each approved project that fails creates potential liability for inadequate screening. This creates a regulatory surface area that permissionless mechanisms avoid entirely.
