+# Fancy Cats
+
+AI companion protocol on Solana positioning itself as "trainable, evolving intelligence" with breeding mechanics and on-chain scarcity. Raised through MetaDAO's Unruggable ICO platform with futarchy-governed treasury, DAO LLC IP ownership, and performance-vested founder tokens. Launch failed immediately with refunding status on same day as launch.

 extraction_notes: "Single launch example demonstrating full unruggable ICO structure (DAO LLC, futarchy treasury, performance vesting) applied to AI companion product. Low funding target and immediate refunding status suggests test deployment or failed minimum raise. Provides concrete implementation evidence for MetaDAO governance architecture and raises question about brand separation strategy for failed launches."

+extraction_notes: "Single failed launch with trivial funding target ($100) and immediate refunding status. No claims extracted — this is purely factual data about a failed raise. Entity created to document the launch as an example of Futardio platform activity and potential evidence for brand separation thesis. The launch description contains standard unruggable ICO marketing language (DAO LLC, futarchy treasury, performance vesting) but provides no novel mechanism insights beyond what's already captured in existing MetaDAO claims. The immediate failure (same-day refunding) suggests either a test deployment or a project that failed to attract any capital."
