Overview
A world of financial agents is coming.
In the next phase of the internet, every person will have an agent managing parts of their financial life, and every company will have fleets of agents handling operations, treasury actions, payments, trading, forecasting, and execution. As major players like Circle and Visa push toward agent-native payment infrastructure and intelligent card systems, the question stops being whether agents will control money. The real question becomes: how do you let them act freely without losing control?
LobsterFutarchy is the control plane for that world.
It gives individuals, teams, and onchain organizations a way to sandbox agents inside secure, onchain-enforceable financial environments. Instead of giving an agent open-ended wallet access, LobsterFutarchy lets users define clear rules around what an agent can do, who it can interact with, how much it can spend, under what conditions it can act, and when human or governance approval is required.
This makes agents not just useful, but safe enough to become real economic actors.
With LobsterFutarchy, agents can operate with real money under rules enforced by blockchain-based policy rails. They can be expressive, autonomous, and always bounded by code. Teams can use presets and templates to automate workflows like yield strategies, treasury operations, prediction market participation, rebalancing, and other recurring financial tasks. Over time, this extends beyond crypto-native actions into a broader system for personal and business financial automation.
The long-term vision is simple: every agent gets a wallet, every wallet gets rules, and every rule is enforceable onchain.

Roadmap & Milestones
Phase 1 - Wallet, Safety, and Multi-Chain Foundation
Goal: Ship a production control plane for agent execution with strong safety guarantees.
Key deliverables: • Agent wallet provisioning • Safe-based wallet support • Solana support with Squads multisig integration • Role presets and spend limits • Session key issuance and revocation • Timelocks and guard controls • Sponsored gas policy settings • Audit-ready activity logs • Policy templates for common autonomous workflows
Outcome: Teams and individuals can deploy agents with real financial permissions from day one, while maintaining clear visibility and enforceable safety boundaries.
Target timeline: Initial launch phase
⸻
Phase 2 - Futarchy Governance and Raise Flows
Goal: Connect treasury execution and autonomous actions to market-governed decision systems.
Key deliverables: • Proposal-to-execution workflow • Conditional market outcome hooks • Ownership coin launch and treasury policy templates • Raise guardrails with transparent capital controls • Governance-controlled escalation paths for agent permissions
Outcome: Markets can shape direction while execution remains constrained by transparent policy rails.
Target timeline: Q2 after Phase 1 hardening
⸻
Phase 3 - Autonomous Execution Networks
Goal: Move from agent assistance to bounded autonomous financial execution at scale.
Key deliverables: • Agent strategy packs with policy presets • Yield, treasury, and prediction market automation modules • Data signal adapters and compute controls • Cross-protocol and cross-chain execution templates • Optional edge and device execution paths • Expanded presets for personal and business financial workflows

Market & Differentiation
Target Market
LobsterFutarchy sits at the intersection of: • Agentic finance • Onchain governance and treasury management • Wallet permissions and smart account infrastructure • Decision-market coordination • Business and personal financial automation
Potential Users • Crypto founders running transparent raises and treasury operations • Onchain organizations coordinating capital through governance • Teams deploying internal financial agents for recurring tasks • Traders and operators automating bounded strategies • Individuals using agents for personal financial execution • Protocols that need auditable, rule-based agent activity
Competitive Landscape
Most existing products solve only one part of the stack: • Wallet tools provide access but not granular autonomous controls • Automation tools allow execution but lack enforceable financial policy rails • Governance tools coordinate decisions but do not guarantee constrained execution • Agent infrastructure gives intelligence but not secure financial sandboxing
Competitive Edge
LobsterFutarchy is built around a core belief: agents need financial freedom, but only inside programmable constraints.
Its advantages are: • Secure sandboxing for financial agents • Onchain-enforceable rules around counterparties, spend, permissions, and workflows • Wallet + policy engine + execution templates in one system • Revocable autonomy through session keys and bounded permissions • Support for both organizational and personal financial agents • A bridge between agent intelligence and real-money execution
Go-To-Market Strategy
LobsterFutarchy grows through: • Founder-led launches using treasury and automation presets • Integrations with wallet, payments, data, and agent infrastructure partners • Community-created policy packs and strategy templates • Public examples of transparent treasury and agent operations • Positioning around the emerging financial-agent stack as the market matures
The objective is to become the default control layer for agentic finance, giving every person, company, and onchain organization the tools to let agents operate with real money safely.
The DAO’s Cayman entity will own or have admin-level control over all core intellectual property for LobsterFutarchy, including: • GitHub repositories and organizations: The DAO entity will be the owner (or hold admin-level access) of the LobsterFutarchy GitHub org and all repos containing project code, including the website, dashboards, data/indexing scripts, and any tooling or automation used to power the product. • Domain names: lobsterfutarchy.com and any related domains or subdomains (for example docs, app, api) will be owned by and transferable to the DAO entity. • Brand assets: The LobsterFutarchy name, logo, visual identity, brand guidelines, design system, and all associated social media accounts and handles will be owned and controlled by the DAO entity. • Deployed contracts and programs: Any onchain programs/contracts, deployment scripts, upgrade authorities, and any multisig keys used for onchain components will be controlled by the DAO entity. • Patents and licenses: Any filed or pending patents (if applicable) and all open-source licensing choices for the codebase. Even if parts of the project are open source, the DAO entity will retain admin control over the repositories and licensing decisions.
The team can spend up to this amount per month from the treasury without a governance proposal. Larger expenditures must be approved by token holders.
Team tokens are locked for an 18-month cliff. After the cliff, the team can trigger a 3-month TWAP evaluation. Tokens unlock in 20% tranches at each price milestone relative to the ICO price of $0.05.
| Tranche | Price Target | Unlocked |
|---|---|---|
| 2× ICO price | $0.10 | 20% |
| 4× ICO price | $0.20 | 40% |
| 8× ICO price | $0.40 | 60% |
| 16× ICO price | $0.80 | 80% |
| 32× ICO price | $1.60 | 100% |
Each tranche unlocks 20% of team tokens. The price target is measured via a 3-month time-weighted average price (TWAP) to prevent short-term manipulation.
By contributing to the fundraise for tokens ("Tokens"), you acknowledge and agree to the Futardio Terms of Service. Without limiting the foregoing, you also acknowledge and agree to all of the following information, terms and conditions:
The above descriptions, terms, and other content were created, determined, and supplied exclusively by prospective project contributors related to the ICO and are being republished on futard.io for convenience of reference only, as third-party content. Furtard.io is a technology platform being used by the prospective project contributors, and the owners and operators of Fudardio.fi and their respective affiliates are not the persons creating, endorsing, sponsoring, or discretionarily operating the ICO. Fudard.io and its owners and operators and their respective affiliates assume no (and by participating in the ICO or otherwise using futard.io, you agree that they shall not have any) responsibility or liability for the accuracy or completeness of the above descriptions, terms and other content, or any other representations, statements, opinions, projections, terms, or information made by or on behalf of the prospective project contributors in connection with the ICO.
The following terms and conditions apply between you, on the one hand, and, on the other hand, both the owners and operators (and their affiliates) of Futard.io or MetaDAO and the prospective ICO project contributors and related legal entity(ies) and their respective affiliates:
No Guarantees. The Tokens are provided on an "as-is" and "as-available" basis. Participation in the fundraise does not come with any guarantees, promises, or assurances of any kind, including—but not limited to—financial return, performance, future utility, or access to any platform, product, or service.
Not an Offer of Securities. The Tokens do not represent a security, equity, loan, or ownership interest in any entity or project. Participation in this fundraise is not intended to be, and shall not be construed as, an offering of securities, nor does it constitute an offer or solicitation in any jurisdiction where such activity is unlawful. You are responsible to refrain from participation in the ICO if your jurisdiction does not permit such participation.
Final Sale. All contributions made as part of the fundraise are final and non-refundable. By participating, you understand and accept that you will not be entitled to a refund or compensation under any circumstances, including but not limited to loss of value or inability to use the Tokens.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable laws, neither the organizers of this fundraise nor any of their affiliates, agents, advisors, officers, or representatives shall be liable for any direct or indirect loss or damage you may suffer, including without limitation: trading losses, loss of data, revenue, profit, or opportunity; or any errors, delays, or technical failures related to the fundraise or the Tokens.
Nature of Token MetaDAO Platform ICOs. You acknowledge and agree that the ICO is a transaction entirely by and among ICO participants, in which such participants contribute certain blockchain tokens into the sole control or custody of Solana-based "smart contracts" or "programs" as a method of establishing a decentralized autonomous decision market oriented toward the research, development, promotion and/or utilization of the above-described project. The ensuing market oracle–sometimes also referred to as a type of "DAO"-- is intended to govern both the deposited tokens and aspects of the related project, using "Futarchy". These smart contracts or programs exist independently of Futard.io or MetaDAO, on the Solana blockchain, and do not have a legal "owner" or "custodian", but instead will be controlled by the market-based governance process embedded in the decision market protocol, as expressed in the code of the smart contracts/programs. The deposited tokens do not represent a capital investment in any legal entity (including the legal entity referred to in the following paragraph) or group of managers or entrepreneurs, and the decision market may revoke funds out of the pool at any time, or may cease using the funds for the currently contemplated project or using them to pay the currently contemplated prospective project contributors, and may instead use them for other purposes, as determined by the decision market oracle aka "DAO." The current prospective project contributors will not immediately own or have any discretionary or managerial control of the deposit pool, and any related services such prospective project contributors provide will be on an independent contractor basis to the community, as determined on an ongoing basis by the decision market oracle aka "DAO." The tokens issued by the program/smart contract in exchange for deposited funds are not initially owned by, and are not being sold or offered by, Futard.io or MetaDAO or the prospective project contributors or any related entity(ies), but rather are issued by the smart-contract/system itself to enable ongoing functionality of the related decision market oracle aka "DAO". Any funds received from the deposit pool by the current prospective project contributors or future project contributors represent retroactive or prospective compensation for work done or to be done by such project contributors that is approved by the related decision market oracle aka "DAO", on the initiative of, and based on the managerial or entrepreneurial efforts of, participants in that market aka "DAO participants".
DAO-Adjacent Entity aka BORG. One or more members of the prospective project contributors may have established a particular type of legal entity related to the project. These entities, known as cybernetic organizations, aka 'BORGs", hold intellectual property related to the project and may receive the funds, if any, determined by the decision market oracle to be paid to the prospective project contributors as compensation for work done or to be done related to the project. BORGs contain special rules designed to provide accountability of project contributors to the community, including prohibiting the issuance of equity securities and requirements to consult the decision market oracle (sometimes on a signaling basis, sometimes on a binding basis) for decisions related to their work on the project and the related intellectual property and assets. Many of these entities are "segregated portfolios" of a Cayman Islands entity called Futarchy Governance SPC. Segregated portfolios provide separate layers of assets and liabilities within this entity, and each particular segregated portfolio is managed in the sole discretion of its "Manager(s)", subject to the terms and conditions of Futarchy Governance SPC and the Operating Agreement of that specific segregated portfolio. The ICO does not represent an investment in the SPC or segregated portfolio, and participants in the ICO and holders of the tokens being issued in the ICO do not have any legal rights in or ownership of the SPC or segregated portfolio, and are not owed any fiduciary or other duties by the participants in the SPC or segregated portfolio, but the SPC, in respect of the segregated portfolio, is legally required to abide by certain determinations of the decision market created by the ICO. Please review the project description above to determine the specific legal entity(ies) or other arrangements identified by the prospective project contributors. You hereby acknowledge and agree that you have reviewed, or had the opportunity to review, the information and documents presented or linked to from that description and acknowledge, consent to and accept the risks of all related legal entities and arrangements.
