The project proposed bringing Git repositories on-chain as NFTs with x402 monetization, GitHub Actions integration, and AI agent interoperability. The raise achieved 28.3% of target ($28,266 committed) before entering refunding status after one day. ## Market Data - **Outcome:** Failed (Refunding) - **Funding Target:** $100,000 - **Total Committed:** $28,266 (28.3% of target) - **Launch Date:** 2026-03-05 - **Closed:** 2026-03-06 - **Token:** 6VT - **Platform:** Futardio v0.7 ## Significance This represents a failed futarchy-governed fundraise for developer infrastructure, demonstrating that not all technically sound projects achieve funding targets through prediction markets. The 28.3% fill rate suggests either insufficient market validation of the code-as-asset thesis, limited awareness of the launch, or skepticism about the team's ability to execute the ambitious roadmap (12-month runway, three development phases, enterprise features). The refunding outcome is notable because Git3 had a live MVP, clear technical architecture, and alignment with broader trends (on-chain code storage, AI agent infrastructure, x402 protocol). The failure suggests futarchy markets can filter projects even when fundamentals appear strong, potentially due to go-to-market concerns, competitive positioning (GitHub's dominance), or team credibility questions. ## Relationship to KB - [[git3]] — parent entity - [[futardio]] — fundraising platform - [[MetaDAO]] — futarchy infrastructure provider - Demonstrates futarchy-governed fundraise failure despite live MVP and technical merit ## Full Proposal Text *Source: futard.io, launched 2026-03-05* Git3: Bringing Git on-chain for true ownership and x402 monetization, backed by Irys Chain. **Core Features:** Git repositories stored on-chain as NFTs on Irys blockchain. Code ownership, censorship resistance, monetization through x402 protocol. GitHub Actions integration for seamless workflow. Agent interoperability via MCP. **Raise:** Target $100,000. Total committed: $28,266 (28.3%). Status: Refunding. Closed 2026-03-06. **Revenue Model:** Creator fees on NFT sales, protocol fees on x402 transactions, agent royalties. Monthly burn: ~$8,000. MVP live at git3.io. **Roadmap:** Phase 1 (core infrastructure & GitHub integration), Phase 2 (NFT marketplace & x402 integration), Phase 3 (ecosystem expansion & $GIT3 token).
