## 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."

# Manna Finance: Futardio Fundraise
## Summary
Manna Finance attempted to raise $120,000 through Futardio to fund development and launch of a zero-interest CDP protocol on Solana. The protocol would allow users to deposit SOL and mint solUSD stablecoin with no ongoing interest, only a one-time borrowing fee. The raise sought 12 months of runway at $10K/month for security audit, mainnet deployment, and team compensation. The fundraise failed dramatically, attracting only $205 in commitments (0.17% of target) before closing after one day.
## Market Data
- **Outcome:** Failed (refunded)
- **Raise Target:** $120,000
- **Total Committed:** $205
- **Oversubscription:** 0.17%
- **Duration:** 1 day (2026-03-03 to 2026-03-04)
## Significance
This represents one of the most severe fundraise failures on Futardio's platform, with the raise attracting less than 0.2% of its target. The failure occurred despite a detailed technical proposal, competitive analysis, clear roadmap, and alignment with Futardio's futarchy governance philosophy. The project had completed significant technical work (smart contracts, SDK, test suite) before attempting the raise.
The failure suggests either: (1) market skepticism about yet another stablecoin project in a crowded Solana stablecoin landscape, (2) insufficient community building before the raise, (3) timing issues with broader market conditions, or (4) fundamental questions about product-market fit for zero-interest CDPs on Solana given existing alternatives.

# Manna Finance
Manna Finance is a zero-interest CDP protocol on Solana modeled after Liquity V1. Users deposit SOL as collateral to mint solUSD stablecoin with only a one-time borrowing fee and no ongoing interest. The protocol maintains its peg through redemptions (solUSD exchangeable for $1 of SOL) and liquidations via a Stability Pool. Governance was planned via MetaDAO futarchy from launch.
The project attempted to raise $120,000 through Futardio in March 2026 but received only $205 in commitments, resulting in a refund. The protocol had completed core smart contract development (11 Anchor/Rust instructions), TypeScript SDK, test suite, and landing page before the failed raise.

extraction_notes: "This is a failed fundraise announcement with detailed project documentation but no novel claims about futarchy mechanisms or market dynamics. The extreme failure rate (0.17% subscription) is a data point but not sufficient alone to make a claim about futarchy fundraising dynamics without additional context or pattern evidence. Created entity pages for Manna Finance and the decision market, added timeline entry to Futardio. The competitive analysis table and technical details are preserved in the entity page for reference."
extraction_notes: "Failed fundraise for Liquity-style CDP on Solana. No novel claims—standard CDP mechanics and futarchy governance already covered in KB. Entity created to track the failed launch. Source contains detailed competitive analysis and go-to-market strategy but represents a single failed attempt, not evidence of broader patterns. The 0.17% funding rate itself is a data point, not a claim about futarchy or CDP viability."
