Epic Finance: Futardio Fundraise
Summary
Epic Finance attempted a futarchy-governed fundraise on Futardio targeting $50,000 but raised only $2 before the launch closed and entered refunding status within 24 hours. The project description ("Epically financial") and team section contained placeholder text ("We Mark Down / The markdown. I need some help with AI."), suggesting minimal preparation or potentially a test launch.
Market Data

- Platform Version: v0.7
Significance
This launch represents a data point in the distribution of futarchy launch outcomes on Futardio. The 0.004% funding rate ($2 of $50K target) and placeholder team description suggest either a non-serious launch attempt or abandoned project. This contrasts sharply with successful launches like CULT ($11.4M raised) and provides evidence for the high variance in futarchy-governed fundraising outcomes.
The immediate failure and refund status demonstrates the platform's unruggable ICO mechanism functioning as designed—investors can exit when projects fail to meet minimum viability thresholds.
