VERSUS

VERSUS is a provably fair AI-animated coinflip duels platform on Solana that attempted to raise $500,000 through futardio's futarchy model. The project proposed meme coin versus meme coin betting with AI-generated 3D duel animations, governed entirely by $VS token holders through futarchy voting. The raise failed, achieving only 1.06% of its funding target ($5,283 of $500,000) before entering refunding status.
