launch a coin, post a roadmap.

launch a coin, link a repo.

five commits take a coin from launch to a paid bounty.

↳ click a commit to see its diff.

  1. Launch a coin and point it at a GitHub repo. From then on, the repo is the roadmap.

    patch.toml
    roadmap = "a tweet"
    repo = "demo-dev/demo-app"
    coin = "$DEMO" # fictional
    fees = "bounty-pool"
  2. The dev and holders open issues. Any issue can carry a bounty, paid from creator fees.

    issues/23.md
    title: fix mobile nav
    label: bug
    bounty: none
    bounty: 0.8 SOL (from creator fees)
  3. Anyone can fork the repo, fix the issue and open a pull request. No permission needed.

    ⎇ contributor/fix-mobile-nav → main
    nav { display: block }
    nav { display: none } /* < 640px */
    closes #23 · 42 lines added, 7 removed
  4. An agent checks that it's real work that solves the issue, not an empty or fake commit. Then the maintainer merges.

  5. The bounty is paid on Solana, with the commit hash written into the transaction.

    tx.json
    amount: 0.8 SOL → 7xQ…f2
    memo: commit a3f9c21 · tx 4fZ…k9

// the side branch is a contributor's fork. anyone can open one.

fees go to the dev's wallet.

fees go to whoever ships.

creator fees fill a bounty pool. issues carry bounties. merged work gets paid.

↳ drag issues between columns, or use → move. drop one in merged to pay it out.

        every pull request is reviewed by an agent before a maintainer can merge it.

        three checks: is there substance, does it solve the issue, is it spam.

        The agent reviews every pull request first. The maintainer makes the final merge.

        Every decision is visible in the repo.

        They can try. The agent flags empty and low-effort changes,

        and bounties are only paid on merge.

        on Solana devnet first.

        join the telegram for alpha.

        open a pull request.

        the first 20 merged pull requests get the closed beta on Solana devnet.
