- **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."

# Salmon Wallet: Futardio Fundraise
|
||||
|
||||
## Summary
|
||||
Salmon Wallet, an established open-source wallet active since 2022, attempted to raise $375,000 through Futardio's futarchy-governed fundraise mechanism. Despite prior funding of $122.5K and being listed on Solana's wallet adapter, the raise failed to reach its minimum target, closing after one day with only $97,535 committed (26% of target). This represents the first observed futarchy-governed wallet infrastructure project on MetaDAO's platform.
|
||||
Salmon Wallet attempted to raise $375,000 through MetaDAO's futarchy platform for 12-month operational runway covering wallet development, security, infrastructure, and mobile app releases. Despite being an established project (active since 2022, listed on Solana wallet adapter, $122.5K prior funding), the raise attracted only $97,535 (26% of target) before refunding. First observed futarchy-governed wallet infrastructure project on the platform.
|
||||
|
||||
## Market Data
|
||||
- **Outcome:** Failed (Refunding)
|
||||
- **Target:** $375,000
|
||||
- **Raised:** $97,535 (26% of target)
|
||||
- **Outcome:** Failed (refunding)
|
||||
- **Raise Target:** $375,000
|
||||
- **Total Committed:** $97,535
|
||||
- **Oversubscription:** 0.26x
|
||||
- **Duration:** 1 day (2026-03-03 to 2026-03-04)
|
||||
- **Token:** SAL (Salmon Token)
|
||||
- **Planned Use:** 12-month runway at $25K/month burn rate
|
||||
|
||||
## Use of Funds (Proposed)
|
||||
- **Team:** $18,300/month (73%)
|
||||
- **Infrastructure:** $4,200/month (17%)
|
||||
- **Growth & Ecosystem:** $2,000/month (8%)
|
||||
- **Governance, Legal & Contingency:** $500/month (2%)
|
||||
- **Total Monthly Burn:** $25,000
|
||||
- **Target Runway:** 12 months
|
||||
|
||||
## Roadmap (Proposed)
|
||||
- Q2-2026: Android release, WebApp relaunch, signing flow optimization
|
||||
- Q3-2026: iOS TestFlight, staking integration, AI transaction security
|
||||
- Q4-2026: Custom notifications, portfolio view, Wallet-as-a-Service
|
||||
- Q1-2027: Cross-platform optimization, ecosystem integrations
|
||||
|
||||
## Significance
|
||||
This failed raise provides empirical evidence of futarchy adoption friction for operational software projects versus pure capital allocation vehicles or speculative assets. Despite Salmon Wallet's established track record (4 years active, prior funding, wallet adapter listing), the futarchy governance model failed to attract sufficient capital for infrastructure development. The detailed operational plan (73% team, 17% infrastructure, 8% growth, 2% governance/legal) reveals tension between market-based governance and traditional operational requirements.
|
||||
First empirical data point on futarchy adoption friction for operational software infrastructure versus pure capital allocation vehicles. The failed raise suggests futarchy mechanisms face challenges when applied to projects with ongoing operational complexity, team budgets, and multi-quarter development roadmaps. Despite technical credibility and operational history, the project could not achieve minimum viable liquidity in the futarchy market.
