## 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 launched a futarchy-governed fundraise on Futardio targeting $75,000 for a 6-month runway. The funds were allocated primarily to marketing ($2K/month), marketing team ($6K/month for 2 people), founder compensation ($3K/month), infrastructure ($500-1500/month for Helius RPC), and a flat $5K for bonding a new token on mainnet (50 SOL requirement). The raise closed in REFUNDING status after one day.
## Market Data
- **Outcome:** Failed (Refunding)
- **Platform:** Futardio v0.7
- **Duration:** 2026-03-05 to 2026-03-06 (1 day)
- **Target:** $75,000
- **Token:** 5pF
## Significance
This represents an early-stage DeFi protocol attempting to use futarchy-governed fundraising for operational capital. The project emphasized formal verification (48/48 kani proof harnesses), open-source development, and non-extractive tokenomics. The rapid closure in refunding status suggests either insufficient market interest or concerns about the project's viability despite technical credentials.

extraction_notes: "Torch Market fundraise is a failed/refunding launch with trivial significance. Created entity pages because: (1) the project has real technical credentials (formal verification, audit, 4K downloads), (2) demonstrates futarchy-governed fundraising for operational capital in DeFi, and (3) the rapid failure provides data on market filtering. No novel claims extracted — the fundraise structure and outcome are factual events, not arguable propositions about mechanisms or markets."
