Every batch is public. All operating revenue goes to the DAO treasury. The big calls get decided by markets instead of one founder's judgment call.
Think about how many real businesses you'll never get to own a piece of—a vineyard in France, an almond orchard in California, a cattle station in New Zealand. They exist, they make money, and regular people just never get a way in.
That's the gap we're closing, starting small with something we can actually grow, test, and prove.

Raising $70K @ $181K implied FDV · $14K launch liquidity
This raise is for exactly one thing: getting from pilot-stage proof to a real, commercial-grade grow room.
Cordyceps is not a random pick. Fortune Business Insights estimates the broader functional-mushroom market at $33.7B in 2025 and projects Cordyceps to represent 24.67% of the category. That implies approximately $8.3B of Cordyceps market context. Separate estimates put Cordyceps growth at roughly 10–11% a year and identify it as the fastest-growing product type. Forecasts vary by methodology; the Fortune category forecast reaches $75.06B by 2034, passing $50B before 2031 on that trajectory. The $8.3B figure is an implied estimate, not a directly reported historical segment figure or a promise about what MycoRealms will capture. We are starting in India, where we already have hands-on cultivation experience and buyer relationships, instead of chasing an export market we do not know yet.
We already have seven public batch records behind us—six cultivation batches plus the purchased mother culture—and real demand ahead of us: 30 kg of pilot-stage orders worth $11,000+, before the farm is running at scale. This raise turns that home-lab proof into a facility that can actually deliver.

Cultivation inputs covers consumables, packaging, testing, and getting product where it needs to go.
We have successfully produced the Cordyceps agar plates and liquid cultures needed to inoculate fruiting jars in our home lab.
Contamination remained controlled across the culture work: most tracked plates and jars avoided confirmed contamination, while affected units were isolated, documented, and disposed of. The full record includes recipes, transfers, observations, photos, and setbacks.
| Public lab · July 2026 | Progress |
|---|---|
| Public batch records | 7 |
| Public cultivation batches | 6 — purchased mother culture excluded |
| Public cultivation stages | 3 — agar, liquid culture, grow jar |
| Grow-jar proof milestone | Underway |
The public record runs from the purchased mother culture through agar and liquid culture into grow-jar testing. Mother culture is source material: it is included in the seven public batch records but not in the six cultivation-batch count.
The grow-jar proof milestone remains underway. An initial two-jar attempt was documented, but an autoclave heating-rod failure interrupted sterilisation and left both jars unsuitable as commercial proof.
Next Milestone: Controlled Production
Move from home-lab culture development into a facility where fruiting jars can be prepared and grown under reliable temperature and environmental control.

The pitch in one line: a real farm, radically public, governed through markets.
This is not really a transparency pitch. Trust still gets earned the old-fashioned way: through monthly reports, visible operations, and independent third-party verification—not because something has “onchain” attached to it.
What changes is where the money goes and who governs it. Capital that would normally sit in a private operating account becomes fuel for a real, revenue-generating farm governed through MYCO decision markets.
MYCO is a digital asset and does not represent conventional company equity. Agricultural and digital-asset projects carry material risk.
| Term | Value |
|---|---|
| Implied launch market cap | $90,000 |
| Implied FDV | $181,000 |
| Total supply | ~25,800,000 MYCO |
| Fixed raise | $70,000 |
| Liquidity-pool funding | $14,000 — 20% of the raise |
| DAO treasury after LP funding | $56,000 |
| Team performance package | 12,900,000 MYCO — approximately 50% of supply |
| Team tokens circulating at launch | 0 |
The market-cap and FDV figures are implied launch valuations and remain subject to the final Futardio configuration.
The full 12,900,000 MYCO team performance package is locked at launch. Nothing is circulating on day one.
The package has a minimum 18-month cliff. After the cliff, the team can initiate a three-month time-weighted average price evaluation. Each of the five equal 2,580,000 MYCO tranches unlocks only if that three-month TWAP reaches 2×, 4×, 8×, 16×, or 32× the ICO price.
| Milestone | MYCO released | Cumulative |

what this founder chose to show — not whether the idea is good
A legal entity holds the project's IP, domain and accounts, and answers to the DAO.
A B1 transparency filing is on the record.
Prior token sales, market-maker deals and insider allocations are disclosed on the record. Filing is optional, so its presence is itself a signal.

Applies to every raise on Backable, this one included. Not legal or financial advice.
By contributing to the fundraise for tokens ("Tokens"), you acknowledge and agree to the Backable 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 Backable for convenience of reference only, as third-party content. Backable is a technology platform being used by the prospective project contributors, and the owners and operators of Backable and their respective affiliates are not the persons creating, endorsing, sponsoring, or discretionarily operating the ICO. Backable and its owners and operators and their respective affiliates assume no (and by participating in the ICO or otherwise using Backable, 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 Backable 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, Except As The Program Provides. Except for the amounts the escrow program itself makes claimable — described in paragraph 7 — contributions made as part of the fundraise are final. No party has the discretion to refund you, and you will not be entitled to a refund or compensation on any other basis, including loss of value or inability to use the Tokens. Where the program does make an amount claimable, no party has the discretion to withhold it either.
No Liability for Losses. 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 Backable 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, Backable 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.
Understanding the Mechanism. This is an onchain fundraising mechanism with a fixed token supply and a stated funding goal. Commitments are not capped, but the amount the project receives is: everything committed above the goal remains the property of the participant who committed it. If the funding goal is not reached by close, every participant may reclaim the whole of their contribution. If the goal is exceeded, each participant may reclaim whatever part of their contribution did not convert into Tokens. These amounts are claimed, not sent. They are released by the program when you submit a claim transaction from the wallet that made the contribution. Nobody can approve, condition, delay or refuse that claim, there is no deadline for making it, and equally nobody can make it on your behalf. The same is true of the Tokens themselves in a funded raise. By participating, you confirm that you understand the program and have reviewed the relevant documentation available at https://docs.metadao.fi.
By contributing or attempting to contribute to the fundraise for Tokens, you confirm that you have read, understood, and accepted the terms above.
This whole raise is one file an assistant can read. Copy a ready diligence prompt and hand it to yours.
