Introducing GitSBT

GitSBT is a Web3‑powered outsourcing marketplace that leverages Soulbound Tokens (SBTs) to bridge the gap between companies short on developers and the global open‑source community. By recording proof of contribution on‑chain at the issue level, GitSBT turns every successfully solved issue into a verifiable credential—making collaboration seamless, transparent, and trust‑less.


Why GitSBT?

  • Issue‑level precision – Post a GitHub Issue with a bounty and let contributors tackle exactly what you need—no long‑term contracts required.

  • On‑chain proof of work – When an issue is solved, an immutable SBT is minted to the contributor, reviewer, and issue creator, certifying their roles.

  • Automated, escrowed payouts – Funds are held safely in a smart contract and released instantly once the Issue is closed and the PR is merged.

  • Reputation you can trust – SBTs provide portable, tamper‑proof evidence of skills, eliminating résumé inflation and interview overhead.


How It Works

  1. Create Issue & Deposit Bounty A company opens an Issue in its repository and deposits ETH into the GitSBT smart contract.

  2. Solve & Review Developers fork, code, and submit a Pull Request. Reviewers validate the solution.

  3. Resolve, Mint & Payout Once the issue is marked as solved (typically when the associated pull request is merged), the contract disburses the bounty and mints SBTs to the issuer, reviewer, and programmer.

  4. Showcase SBTs appear on‑chain and on GitSBT profiles, forming a permanent, verifiable record of achievement.
