metadao-x-landscape-2026-03 Ranger is the MetaDAO ecosystem's most consequential governance case study — the first project to face futarchy-enforced liquidation. Their pivot from perps/spot trading to pure vault strategy happened under futarchy oversight. Key data: $1.13M+ paid to depositors all-time, $17.7K weekly payouts across 9 vaults. Build-A-Bear hackathon offering $1M seed funding. The liquidation event ($5M USDC returned) is already well-documented in other archives — Ranger's own account shows the project perspective on being governed by markets.

Enrichment target: 'futarchy-governed liquidation is the enforcement mechanism' — Ranger is THE case study
Potential new claim: futarchy governance forces strategic focus by making underperformance visible and actionable
