Open-source token · Base mainnet

Contribution,
minted.

SourceMint (SRCMNT) is an experiment in accounting for open-source contribution on-chain: a fixed-supply ERC-20 with no ICO and no token sale. Supply enters circulation as contributor rewards, every treasury movement is ledgered and code-verified — and the token trades freely.

Mission

Make contribution count, on-chain

Open source runs on work that is rarely visible and almost never accounted for. SourceMint is a small, honest experiment against that: a token whose only distribution channel is contribution to the project itself, with every movement recorded, reasoned, and machine-verified.

The full picture — contract properties, supply and distribution, the accounting method, governance, roadmap and risks — is set out in the project overview.

Earned first, traded freely

No ICO, no airdrop. Supply enters circulation as rewards to people whose contributions were merged, under a public reward policy. Once out, SRCMNT is an ordinary ERC-20 — holders trade it as they wish, and any treasury liquidity provision is ledgered like every other movement.

Accounted, provably

Every transfer out of a project wallet must appear in a public ledger with its reason. CI re-checks the ledger against the chain — an unaccounted movement fails the build in public.

Trust-minimized by design

No owner, no admin, no pause, no fees, no minting after deployment. Supply can only shrink, and only when a holder chooses to burn.

The treasury and rewards wallets are project-controlled; the split was funded in one on-chain transaction on 2026-08-27. On 2026-08-28 the treasury seeded a public ETH/SRCMNT pool on Aerodrome with 10,000 SRCMNT and 0.012 ETH, so rewards can be exchanged rather than being symbolic. The pool is permissionless: anyone can trade against it or add liquidity, and its price is set by the market, not by the project. On 2026-09-15 the treasury burned 100% of its LP tokens, so that liquidity is permanently locked and cannot be withdrawn by anyone.

Don't take our word for it

The accounting invariant — every token leaving a project wallet has a ledgered reason — is enforced by code, not promises. The ledger lists each movement with its transaction hash and reason; the Ledger check replays the chain against it on every change and weekly. The method is written up in Make the build fail when the treasury moves. Verify it yourself from a clone of the repository:

Roadmap

What happens next

Q3 2026 · done

Reward policy published (REWARDS.md), public ledger and CI enforcement live, treasury split and liquidity provisioned — each movement ledgered.

Q4 2026 · in progress

Distribute rewards to contributors as work is merged; open reward-allocation discussion on GitHub; publish periodic treasury reports on this page.

2027

Evaluate liquidity provisioning and further tooling — airdrop scripts, permit-based reward claims — based on community interest.

Progress is tracked in GitHub Issues and Discussions.
