# Futarchy Arena

Futarchy Arena was a competitive onchain futarchy game where players made predictions on strategic decisions instead of voting. The project proposed turning futarchy governance into a persistent competitive game with leaderboards, performance tracking, and measurable outcomes. Each round would introduce decisions (capital allocations, strategy shifts, reward changes), open YES/NO prediction markets, and resolve based on predefined metrics. The project aimed to create a new category: "Futarchy as a Game."
