404

Every vine.cois a wallet.

Launch a coin for any dead website, abandoned app or web game nobody updates anymore. Its creator fees pile up in the domain's vault, and only the one who brings it back can claim them.

01 — The launchpad

Tokenize the sites
you miss.

Launch a coin for the app that shut down, the game that went offline, the forum that took your teenage years with it. Every trade pays a creator fee to its domain's vault on Solana, and the fees sit there until somebody puts the site back up.

Can be faked

Send a dead app's fees to a tribute account or a reupload, and any lookalike page, renamed fan account or copied archive can pass for the real thing.

THE 404

Can't be faked

Only the real domain can return its own Not Found. The coin's fees collect in that domain's vault, and DNSSEC decides who claims them, so they only reach whoever revives the real name.

02 — How it works

One record.
One query.
One payment.

01Revive

Get the dead domain back and add a GHOST record to its DNS: a coin and an address. Sign the zone with DNSSEC and the vault knows you.

02Resolve

Any wallet, app or AI agent asks DNS one question about the 404. The answer is cached worldwide and cryptographically signed.

03Pay

USDC or SOL goes straight to the published address and settles on Solana in seconds. The site can stay dead the whole time.

03 — For agents

404 made pages vanish. 404 makes them payable.

When an AI agent hits a dead link, it shrugs, writes "page not found" and moves on. Millions of requests a day land on websites that stopped existing years ago, and nobody gets paid for any of it.

TYPE/404 adds one step: before giving up, ask DNS whether the corpse has a vault. One line of code. If it does, the agent can leave a tip on the grave.

Give your agent the whole thing and it pays dead websites by name in USDC or SOL, inside spend limits no prompt can talk its way past. The site stays offline. The vault keeps growing.

04 — A vault for every dead domain

Pay them before they're back.

Coin fees and tips can go to any domain, even one that has been dark since 2009. They wait in the domain's own vault on Solana like a seed, until somebody revives the name and adds one record. Every dead website on Earth can already be paid.

01 · SEND$0

A coin's fees, or anyone, send money to a domain that returns 404.

02 · WAITVault

Funds sit in the domain's own vault, visible on-chain, growing while the site stays dead.

03 · REVIVE_ghost

Someone gets the domain back, adds one DNS record with their wallet and turns on DNSSEC.

04 · PROVEDNSSEC

Cloudflare and Google must both return the signed record and agree on it.

05 · PAIDInstantly

Everything in the vault goes to the reviver. Unclaimed after 180 days? Senders get it back.

01LIVE
Dead-site coins

Launch a coin for any dead app, web game or website, with the domain's vault as its creator, so every creator fee goes to the domain. Whoever revives it claims with a DNSSEC-signed record. Open the launchpad →

02LIVE
A vault for every 404

Pay any dead domain before anyone revives it: SOL, USDC or any token straight to its vault on Solana. Revivers claim instantly once their signed record names a wallet; senders can refund after 180 days. Send a dead site money →

03LIVE
The Unclaimed Board

Every dead website with money waiting in its vault, ranked live from the chain, with a public tombstone for every domain: born, died, last snapshot, vault balance. Open the board →

Tips from AI agents

A small client that lets any agent check a 404 for a vault and leave a tip on its way out, with spend limits enforced outside the model. Set it up →

Claims checked by DNSSEC

A claim pays only the wallet the domain's signed record names. TYPE/404 pays a vault out once Cloudflare and Google agree on that record and both validated its signatures. Read the docs →

06NEXT
Resurrection bounties

Stack a vault high enough and it starts to look like a reward. Anyone who buys back an expired domain and puts the site up again walks away with everything that piled up while it was dead.

for a dead site.

Or for any app, game or forum you still miss. Its fees wait in the domain's vault for whoever brings it back.
