+# Avici: Futardio Launch
+
+## Summary
+
+Avici launched a futarchy-governed fundraise on Futardio to build distributed internet banking infrastructure including spend cards, internet-native trust scores, and unsecured lending. The project targeted $2M but received $34.2M in commitments (17x oversubscribed), ultimately raising $3.5M and closing after 4 days.
+
+## Market Data
+
+- **Outcome:** Passed (fundraise completed)
+- **Launch Date:** 2025-10-14
+- **Close Date:** 2025-10-18
+- **Target:** $2,000,000
+- **Committed:** $34,230,976
+- **Final Raise:** $3,500,000
+- **Oversubscription:** 17.1x
+
+## Significance
+
+This launch demonstrates futarchy-governed fundraising attracting significant capital for infrastructure projects beyond meme coins. The 17x oversubscription indicates market demand for reputation-based undercollateralized lending infrastructure, a gap identified by Vitalik Buterin as missing from onchain finance.
+
+The project's thesis challenges the commodity theory of money, arguing money originated as credit (a social ledger) rather than barter, positioning onchain reputation systems as necessary infrastructure for fiat independence.
