With a heavy heart, we’re announcing the closure of Contribo. The reason is simple: we didn’t reach product–market fit. That’s never easy to admit, but it’s the truth. And we believe in building with honesty, even when it hurts. Still, this isn’t the end. It’s the closing of one chapter in a much longer story. Contribo was a wild and rewarding ride. We built, shipped, iterated and learned more than we ever expected. Most importantly, we walk away sharper, humbler, and better prepared for what’s next. Here’s what we’re taking with us: 🔸We now understand competitive dynamics with much more clarity. 🔸We’ve learned how investors actually evaluate early-stage projects. 🔸We’ve become significantly better at presenting, pitching, and refining ideas. That alone makes this a win in our eyes. Along the way, we met so many incredible people. To everyone who supported us, challenged us, believed in us, and even criticized us — thank you. Your time, feedback, and energy helped us grow in ways we’ll never forget. But now, it’s time to close this chapter. Not with regret, but with gratitude. We’ll take everything we’ve learned and come back stronger. The next thing we build will be better because of this. See you soon, with something new. The Contribo team 💚

Huge thanks to the @KumekaTeam for organizing an incredible community hackathon and to all the partners who made it possible 💛💙 This award isn’t just about us, it’s about everyone who believes in the power of community, decentralization and open-source. We’re just getting started 🚀

Meet our meme mascot. He’s not just here for the likes. He’s the spirit of Build-to-Earn: tired, rugged, still shipping. Every contribution, every commit, every pool… he’s lived it. Name him. Roast him. Help us evolve him. 👇 What should we call this creature of conviction?

Tell us about your logo, what hidden meaning or philosophy is behind it? Here's ours:

Our logo nods to the 'C' in Contribo, but the three squares? They're more than just design. Here's what they mean: When Community meets Developers → Projects grow faster and reach more users; When Projects team up with Developers → The Community wins with better experiences; When Projects connect with Community → Developers earn more and love what they do;

New GitBook is live: contribo.gitbook.io/litepape… No fluff. Just how Contribo works: 🔸 fund pools 🔸build together 🔸earn what you help create Build-to-Earn isn’t a tagline. It’s the model.

How Contribo works — in one chart 🔸Users fund the Contribo Pool 🔸Devs build real things for real projects 🔸Projects send back tokens 🔸Claiming Program distributes tokens to contributors 🔸LCT flows through it all
