Launch a coin for any repo.
Pick any repo on GitHub, yours or one you depend on. Every trade sends a fee to its stash, and 90% is held for the maintainers until they claim it.
The money is waiting for them.
Maintainers don't sign up first, ask for donations or chase sponsors. They sign in with GitHub and claim what their repo has earned.
Why forkfund.fun
Every app, every exchange and every chain runs on free code.
Solana itself is built on open source libraries.
Thousands of developers maintain that code at night and on weekends, for nothing.
When one of them burns out and quits, half the internet breaks.
Meanwhile, memecoins move billions of dollars a day, and almost none of it goes to anyone who builds anything.
forkfund.fun connects the two.
Any repo on GitHub
Any repo.
Any language.
Paste the repo, name the coin, sign once. Launch for your own project, or for the one your whole stack quietly depends on.
Launch a coin
Fees would be held for the curl/curl maintainers.
