The project raised through Futardio but failed to reach its $500K target, collecting only $1,183 before entering refunding status. ## Timeline - **2026-03-06** — [[lobsterfutarchy-futardio-fundraise]] launched on Futardio seeking $500K for 12-month runway to build agent wallet infrastructure with Safe and Squads integration - **2026-03-07** — Fundraise closed in refunding status with $1,183 committed (0.24% of target) ## Relationship to KB - [[futardio]] — fundraising platform - [[MetaDAO]] — futarchy infrastructure provider - Related to agent infrastructure and DeFi automation themes in internet-finance domain ## Product Vision LobsterFutarchy proposed building: - Agent wallet provisioning with Safe-based and Solana Squads multisig support - Role presets, spend limits, and session key management - Timelocks, guard controls, and sponsored gas policies - Futarchy governance integration for treasury execution - Agent strategy packs for yield, treasury, and prediction market automation The long-term vision: "every agent gets a wallet, every wallet gets rules, and every rule is enforceable onchain." ## Competitive Positioning Positioned as differentiated from: - Wallet tools (provide access but not granular autonomous controls) - Automation tools (allow execution but lack enforceable financial policy rails) - Governance tools (coordinate decisions but don't guarantee constrained execution) - Agent infrastructure (gives intelligence but not secure financial sandboxing) ## Use of Funds Plan Proposed $480K raise for 12-month runway: - Team: $35K/month (product development, smart account integrations, security engineering) - Infrastructure: $5K/month (RPCs, indexing, monitoring, compute, storage) - Growth & Marketing: $5K/month (developer adoption, partner integrations, ecosystem education) Total monthly burn: $45K/month
