✌️ Say Hello to Repo.trade

Repo.trade transforms GitHub repositories into tradable assets, creating a revolutionary economic model that directly rewards open-source developers. While billions flow into the open-source ecosystem, individual contributors typically receive pennies in return. Repo.trade fundamentally changes this paradigm by enabling developers to tokenize their repositories, allowing anyone to support and trade them.

🚀 What is Repo.trade?

The Problem: Value Without Compensation 💩

The open-source ecosystem faces a critical imbalance: billions flow into open source, while individual contributors receive pennies. Despite creating immense value through their code, developers often struggle to find sustainable funding models. This disconnect threatens the long-term viability of essential digital infrastructure that powers our modern world.

Our Solution: Repository Tokenization 🎢

Repo.trade transforms this paradigm by tokenizing GitHub repositories, creating a direct economic relationship between developers and their supporters. Our platform enables:

  • Direct Funding for repository owners through initial auctions and ongoing trading fees
  • Community Participation in supporting valuable open-source projects
  • Sustainable Revenue Streams that align incentives between all stakeholders
  • Market-Based Valuation of open-source contributions

🧐 What can I do on Repo.trade?

1️⃣ Repository Tokenization

When a repository is tokenized on Repo.trade:

  • Community-Owned Tokens represent stakeholder support for the project
  • Developers Receive Direct Funding through auction proceeds and ongoing trading fees
  • Supporters Gain Stake in projects they believe in
  • Incentive Alignment ensures all participants benefit from the project's success

2️⃣ A Revolutionary Funding Model

Our innovative approach operates through these key mechanisms:

  • Initial 2-Week Auction: 500M tokens (50% of total supply) are distributed at 35.7M per day based on proportional contributions
  • Transparent Token Distribution: Repository owners receive 40% of tokens plus collected USDC to seed initial liquidity
  • Reserved Allocation: 10% of tokens are held for rewarding GitHub contributors and ensuring long-term growth
  • Automated Market Maker: Post-auction tokens trade freely with fees directly benefiting repository owners
