+# Cloak: Futardio Fundraise
+
+## Summary
+Cloak launched a $300K fundraise on Futardio to build private DCA infrastructure on Solana using ZK-proof privacy pools. The 24-hour raise window closed with only $1,455 committed (0.49% of target), triggering automatic refunds per Futardio's all-or-nothing mechanism. This represents one of the lowest commitment rates for a Futardio launch with a substantive product in private beta.
+
+## Market Data
+- **Outcome:** Failed (refunded)
+- **Raise Target:** $300,000
+- **Total Committed:** $1,455 (0.49%)
+- **Token:** 8RS
+- **ICO Price:** $0.03 per token
+- **Proposed FDV:** $477,000
+- **Raise Window:** 24 hours (2026-03-03 to 2026-03-04)
+
+## Significance
+This fundraise demonstrates the challenge of privacy-focused infrastructure projects attracting capital in permissionless launch environments. Despite having a working product in private beta, integration with established protocols (Privacy.cash, Jupiter), and a detailed technical roadmap, Cloak failed to generate market interest. The 0.49% commitment rate suggests either:
+1. Privacy DCA is not a compelling value proposition for Solana users
+2. The $300K target was misaligned with demonstrated traction
+3. 24-hour launch windows are insufficient for infrastructure projects to build conviction
+
+The team's performance-locked token structure (3M tokens unlocking only at 2x, 4x, 8x, 16x, 32x price multiples with 18-month cliff) represented strong alignment but was insufficient to overcome market skepticism.

+# Cloak
+
+Cloak is a privacy infrastructure protocol on Solana that enables private DCA (dollar-cost averaging) execution through ZK-proof privacy pools. The protocol routes trades through unlinkable session wallets to break the on-chain link between user wallets and trading strategies. Launched via Futardio fundraise on 2026-03-03, the raise failed to reach its $300K target and refunded all commitments.

 ## 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."

No novel claims extracted - the source is primarily factual launch data and company pitch material. The 0.49% commitment rate is a significant data point but represents a single case, insufficient for broader claims about privacy infrastructure or futarchy launch dynamics.
