I built a cemetery for dead side projects — where the community can fund one back to life. Looking for beta testers.

Post original

Every dev has a folder of abandoned projects. Half-built SaaS ideas, apps that never made it past localhost, that Discord bot from 2022. Normally they just rot in a private repo until you forget the password to the hosting account. I built them a graveyard instead. It's live right now, in beta, and I need people to break it before I put real money behind it. Site: https://2bitdeveloper.github.io/side-project-graveyard/ What it actually does You connect a Solana wallet and bury a project : name, an epitaph (the eulogy), a cause of death (dropdown with the classics — "scope creep," "ran out of money," "got a job" — plus a custom option if none of those fit), and optionally a real pitch describing what it does and a link to follow it (GitHub, a demo, whatever). That last part matters — see resurrection below. Once it's buried: Candles are free, forever. Anyone can light one for any grave, no tokens required beyond signing a message. This is the part that doesn't touch the token at all — it's just a memorial wall anyone can participate in. Eternal flames are a paid, permanent upgrade — burn 1,000 $GRAVE and the grave gets a flame that never goes out. Custom tombstones — burn 500 $GRAVE, pick a material (marble/onyx/gold/crystal), and your grave gets a colored accent and pins to the top of the cemetery. Offerings — this is the actual point of the whole project. Anyone can send $GRAVE directly to a dead project's creator to fund them finishing it. Every offering is one on-chain transaction: 95% goes straight to the creator's wallet, 5% is burned. The creator sets their own resurrection goal when they bury the project (not some fixed number) — hit it, and the grave flips to RISEN, publicly, with the funding trail visible on-chain. It's basically a GoFundMe with a tombstone theme, except nobody's trusting a payment processor — every offering is a direct wallet-to-wallet transfer you can verify yourself. There's also a read-only viewer for people whose wallet (like pump.fun's built-in one) can't sign messages to outside sites — you can paste an address and browse without connecting anything. Tokenomics ($GRAVE) Launching on pump.fun (Solana), fair launch, no team allocation, no presale. Cashback Coin — 100% of creator trading fees go back to traders, enforced by the platform and locked at creation. I'm not skimming fees off the top; if this doesn't build something people want, I don't get paid either. Where the token actually gets used: Action Cost What happens Light a candle Free Mourn any grave, no tokens needed Eternal flame Burn 1,000 $GRAVE Permanent flame, one per wallet per grave Custom tombstone Burn 500 $GRAVE Choose a material, pin to the top Offering Min 100 $GRAVE 95% to the creator, 5% burned Resurrection Creator-set goal Grave flips to RISEN when funded Every burn and every offering is a real on-chain transaction, verified server-side against the transaction data before anything updates — nothing is just a database flag someone could fake. Where it stands right now Pre-launch. Burials and candles are already live and free to test — no token needed for those. Eternal flames, custom tombstones, and offerings are built and gated to unlock the moment the token exists. There is no contract address yet. If you see one being shared anywhere claiming to be $GRAVE before I post it myself, it's fake — I'll only ever confirm it here and on the site itself. What I need from beta testers This is the actual ask. Before I put real tokens behind this, I want people who aren't me poking holes in it: Bury a project. Does the flow make sense? Is anything confusing? Try connecting different wallets — Phantom, Solflare, mobile, whatever you've got. If something breaks on your setup, that's exactly what I need to know. Read the cards. I just redesigned them for legibility — tell me if anything's still hard to parse. Try it on mobile specifically — that's where I trust it least right now. Anything that feels broken, unclear, or just bad — say so. Bluntly is fine. Comment here or DM me. I'm one dev building this solo, so real feedback before launch is worth more to me than hype after it. Thanks for reading this far. Go bury something.   submitted by   /u/No-Preference-4024 [link]   [comments]
