# LobsterFutarchy: Futardio Fundraise

## Summary

LobsterFutarchy proposed raising $500K to build a control plane for autonomous financial agents with secure sandboxing, onchain-enforceable rules, and multi-chain wallet support (Safe on Ethereum, Squads on Solana). The 12-month runway would fund agent wallet provisioning, role-based permissions, session key management, and futarchy-governed treasury execution. The raise failed within 24 hours, collecting only $1,183 (0.24% of target) before entering refunding status.

## Market Data

- **Outcome:** Failed (refunding)
- **Platform:** Futardio
- **Target:** $500,000
- **Committed:** $1,183 (0.24%)
- **Duration:** ~24 hours (2026-03-06 to 2026-03-07)

## Significance

This represents one of the lowest-performing raises on Futardio to date, with commitment falling 99.76% short of target. The failure suggests either weak market demand for agent financial infrastructure at this stage, insufficient credibility/traction for the team, or poor product-market fit articulation. The rapid close (within 24 hours) indicates the futarchy market quickly priced the project as non-viable rather than allowing extended price discovery.
