A few months ago, I got laid off unexpectedly while trying to migrate a legacy codebase. Since then, I’ve been applying to jobs, diving deeper into Rust, and building side projects. But there's one project I’ve put months of love into: Potatoe Squeezy.

What started as a small birthday idea evolved into a platform for tipping open-source developers using crypto. It's designed to be borderless, crypto-native, and frictionless. On GitHub, maintainers tag issues with a bounty, and contributors get paid automatically when they close the issue. On the web app, anyone can tip anyone without needing any crypto knowledge.

The problem it solves is simple: GitHub sponsorships are slow and gated, and bounty platforms feel overengineered. Potatoe Squeezy allows devs worldwide to receive crypto tips effortlessly.

But, with the layoff, I can't keep the project alive. So, I’ve decided to sell it. The project is live and fully functional, with well-structured code, a GitHub bot, web app, and deployment guides. Despite some traction (top 1 in Web3 on Product Hunt), the project is still in its early stages.

If you're interested in taking it to the next level, I’m open to offers and will provide code, docs, and a smooth handoff. You can reach me via Twitter, email, or check the project out at https://potatoesqueezy.xyz/.

I’m also actively looking for new opportunities. Feel free to check out my portfolio and GitHub profile.

Thanks for reading — you’ve earned a virtual high five! And hey, if you want to sponsor or fund me, I’m always open, like the Burj Khalifa or the sun from afar, hard to miss!
