Launch Checklist

The cemetery can look alive before the gates are open.

This page separates the shareable concept launch from the operational launch. The public site can be explored now with sample data, while real beta requests, wallets, burials, plaques, and collectibles stay behind clear readiness gates.

Readiness gates

What can launch now, what must wait

Each gate answers a practical question: is this part safe to expose to the public, or does it need backend, review, wallet, consent, or legal-language work first?

The operational map

The current prototype already has many public-facing pages. The next real work is the storage, review, wallet, and moderation machinery behind them.

Launch principles

These are the rules that keep the project moving forward without opening the parts that need operational maturity first.

Prototype before money

Let visitors understand the product with sample data before any real token transfer, paid collectible, or plaque fulfillment exists.

Manual before automatic

Use human review for early burials before publishing wallets or relying on automated watchers.

Labels before leaderboards

Define sample, observed, estimated, documented, unknown, and not-determined values before ranking real users.

Consent before clout

Give participants control over pseudonyms, masked wallets, public transaction links, and plaque shipping details.

Do not launch these accidentally

Do not publish receiving wallets before the review and watcher plan is ready.

Do not accept private keys, seed phrases, exchange logins, or remote access.

Do not advertise tax-loss harvesting, charitable deductions, or investment value.

Do not ship plaques without explicit winner consent and private fulfillment handling.

Do not mint NFTs/SBTs before metadata, provenance, and no-value-promise language are settled.

What “launch” means right now

Right now, launch means the public can understand Crypto Graveyard and follow the project. It does not mean users can bury tokens yet. That distinction is a feature, not a delay.

Can share the domain

Next best build

After this, the practical next step is the real beta-request backend.

The public prototype is broad enough now. The next major shift is moving from sample pages to stored requests, admin review, and controlled instructions.
