## 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."

# Open Music
Artist-first music streaming platform built on Solana that attempted to replace Spotify's pro-rata pool model with direct fan-to-artist payments. Raised through Futardio but failed to reach funding target and refunded backers.
## Timeline
- **2026-03-03** — Launched $250K raise on Futardio with direct payment model where subscriber payments go only to artists they listen to
- **2026-03-04** — Raise closed at $27,533 (11% of target), status: refunding
## Relationship to KB
- [[futardio]] — fundraising platform
- Example of futarchy-governed raise that failed to attract sufficient capital despite novel value proposition
- Demonstrates market validation function: direct payment model did not attract enough early supporters to reach minimum viable funding

extraction_notes: "Futardio launch that failed to reach funding threshold. No novel claims about futarchy mechanisms or market dynamics — this is a straightforward failed raise. The direct payment model vs pro-rata pool is a product feature, not a generalizable claim about music economics or platform design. Entity data only."
