Rules
Every label is a measurement and every rule that binds you is written down here, in plain words.
The minimum balance, the 24-hour lock, withering, claims and the early-claim burn.
The Patch is a field of pumpkins that ripen every hour for four days. Hold the token and your wallet finds pumpkins as they ripen. Hold 24 hours, the pumpkin is yours. Claim whenever you like; patience burns less.
There are 1,200 pumpkins in all. The field has 1,000: 333 on day 1, 300 on day 2, 217 on day 3 and 150 on day 4. The other 200 go to the Gravelist winners and have a Harvest of their own, so they never change the field's days.
The field is open from Nov 2, 2026, 19:00 UTC to Nov 6, 2026, 19:00 UTC: four days of 24 hours, each starting at 19:00 UTC.
The minimum balance
Your wallet is in the field for an hour when it holds at least 100,000 tokens through that whole hour.
What counts is the lowest balance the wallet held during the hour, so tokens moved in for a few minutes do not help.
Hold 24 hours, the pumpkin is yours
Every pumpkin you find starts out Growing. Exactly 24 hours after it was found it becomes Locked. A locked pumpkin is yours: nothing you do after that changes it, selling included.
Selling withers
While a pumpkin is still growing, selling shrinks it in proportion to what you sold. Sell 5% of your tokens and every pumpkin still growing loses 5%. That part is Withered and does not come back. Locked pumpkins are never touched.
Selling also sets back your progress toward the next pumpkin, in the same proportion.
Sending out a little does not count as selling: moving up to 2% of your balance, as a gift or a test transfer, leaves your pumpkins whole. Burning tokens in the Bonfire never counts as selling either; burned tokens keep counting toward your balance in the field.
When pumpkins open
Each day's pumpkins open together when that day's seal breaks: at 19:00 UTC, once the last pumpkin of that day has locked. Opened pumpkins show what they hold.
Claims
You claim your tokens yourself, from the Harvest contract, in your own transaction. The team never sends tokens and never asks you to send anything first.
The Claim page shows, for each of your days, what a claim pays and burns right now, and sends the claim from your wallet.
A Gravelist pumpkin is claimed from the Gravelist Harvest in four parts, one for each of its days, all open from the same moment: one approval in a wallet that can batch calls, four transactions in a row in one that cannot.
| Day | Pumpkins found | Pumpkins open | Claim opens | Burn reaches zero | Claim closes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Nov 2, 19:00 UTC to Nov 3, 19:00 UTC | Nov 4, 19:00 UTC | Nov 5, 19:00 UTC | Nov 10, 19:00 UTC | Dec 5, 19:00 UTC |
| 2 | Nov 3, 19:00 UTC to Nov 4, 19:00 UTC | Nov 5, 19:00 UTC | Nov 6, 19:00 UTC | Nov 11, 19:00 UTC | Dec 6, 19:00 UTC |
| 3 | Nov 4, 19:00 UTC to Nov 5, 19:00 UTC | Nov 6, 19:00 UTC | Nov 7, 19:00 UTC | Nov 12, 19:00 UTC | Dec 7, 19:00 UTC |
| 4 | Nov 5, 19:00 UTC to Nov 6, 19:00 UTC | Nov 7, 19:00 UTC | Nov 8, 19:00 UTC | Nov 13, 19:00 UTC | Dec 8, 19:00 UTC |
| Gravelist | Oct 31, 17:00 UTC to Nov 5, 18:00 UTC | Nov 6, 19:00 UTC | Nov 7, 19:00 UTC | Nov 12, 19:00 UTC | Dec 7, 19:00 UTC |
These are the planned times. Harvest opens each day's claim on chain exactly 6 hours after the team's Safe writes that day's final list, planned for 13:00 UTC the day after its seal breaks. If a list goes in later, that day's claim, burn and closing move with it, and the new time is announced here. The Gravelist winners go into the Gravelist Harvest with day 3’s list, and their pumpkins open with day 3’s seal.
The early-claim burn
Claiming the moment a day opens burns half of that claim. The burn shrinks every hour and is gone five days after opening. It happens in the same transaction as the claim. When to claim is up to you.
| You claim | Burned |
|---|---|
| The moment it opens | Half |
| 1 day later | 40% |
| 2 days later | 30% |
| 3 days later | 20% |
| 4 days later | 10% |
| 5 days later | Nothing |
Each day's claim stays open for 30 days. After that, anyone can trigger a Flush that burns what is left of that day. Nothing goes back to the team.
The opening buy and Harvest
The team's opening buy goes to the Harvest contract, not to the team, and it is the whole pool. Harvest can release it only through your claims and the burn.
The buy is split between two Harvests from the same verified code: five sixths to the field's Harvest and one sixth, for the 200 Gravelist pumpkins, to the Gravelist Harvest.
Harvest's verified code says 1,000 / 900 / 650 / 450 pumpkins, 3,000 in all. Harvest never counts pumpkins: those numbers only split a pool across its four days, and the field's days follow the same split. The Gravelist Harvest has every winner in each of its four days.
If Harvest's independent review is not finished at launch, the pool waits in the team's Safe until it is. If that moves a claim, the new time will be announced here.

Outside the field
These addresses never find pumpkins: the team's wallets, the Safe, the launch wallet, our contracts and the pools.

The Gravedigger's Seals
Every pumpkin in the patch is sealed by the Gravedigger. One seal breaks each day.
Four hashes, one for each day, published at launch. Each seal is fixed before the field opens. When it breaks, the value behind it is published, and anyone can check that it matches the hash below.
Published at launch.
At launch the team's Safe also commits these four hashes, together with the hash of the verification script, to the Memorial contract. That can happen only once. When a seal breaks, anyone can hand Memorial the day's seed, and Memorial accepts it only if it matches.
What Dead, Ghost, Zombie, Haunted, Alive and Unknown mean, and what the estimates cover.
Every label is a measurement from public onchain data, not an opinion about a project or the people behind it. Labels are heuristics computed from public onchain data. Not financial advice, not an accusation.
The labels
| Label | What it means | On the card |
|---|---|---|
| Alive | In the last 7 days: at least 100 transfers and at least 50 holders, counted as for Haunted. It cannot be buried or reanimated. | Still breathing |
| Zombie | No transfers in the 30 days before the last 7, after earlier activity, then at least 50 transfers in the last 7 days. | Rose again (buried anyway) |
| Haunted | The top 10 holders own 60% or more of what all holders hold together. Holders here are every address except the protocol's own contracts, pools and burn addresses. | Too few hands held it |
| Dead | At most 5 transfers in the last 14 days and, where its pons curve or pool can be measured, less than 0.05 ETH of liquidity. A token that has graduated to its locked pool always holds more than that there, so it is never Dead. | Volume flatlined |
| Ghost | A flag on your wallet, not on the token: you still hold it, none of it has come into or left your wallet for 30 days or more, and the token had fewer than 20 transfers in the last 7 days. | Went silent |
| Unknown | Not enough data (a token less than a day old that is not Alive, a data source that failed, a token we cannot read), or it fits none of the rules. | Cause unknown |
When more than one fits
A token gets one label: the first that fits, in this order: Alive, Zombie, Haunted, Dead, Ghost, Unknown. Alive, Zombie, Haunted, Dead and Unknown are about the token and read the same in every wallet. Ghost is about your wallet and shows only when no token label comes first.
Alive tokens can never be buried or reanimated, so a living project never shows up as dead on a card.
Entry timing
- Early: bought in the first 10 minutes after the token launched.
- Bought the top: bought within 20% of the highest price of its pons stage.
Estimated P/L
We compare the ETH a wallet spent buying on the token's pons curve with the ETH it got back from selling there, plus what the rest would sell for today. Trades after a token graduated, and trades in pons v1 pools, are not counted, so the card says estimated (pons stage only). If any of the token left the wallet another way (sent to another address, or sold through a router), or a sale paid its ETH to someone else, the curve trades no longer tell the whole story and the card says Unknown. Where we cannot measure it, the card says Unknown too. A wrong number costs more than an honest Unknown.
Remains
What selling the token today would return, estimated from its own curve or pool. We never assume a dead token is worth zero, and we never promise a number: the Lab re-reads the quote right before you sign a sale.
Where the data comes from
Only public onchain data from Robinhood Chain: wallet balances and transfers, holder spread and activity, pons launch records, pons curve trades and current sale quotes, read through the chain's Blockscout explorer and an RPC provider. Results are cached for a few minutes; token-level numbers refresh hourly.
Changes
Any change to how labels are computed is listed here with its date.

How the Lab sells a ghost at its own market price, and the guards around it.
The Lab sells your ghost at whatever its own curve or pool pays today, then buys $GRAVE with the proceeds. Most ghosts return dust. The tombstone is the real prize.
What it does not do
- No subsidy and no fixed rate. A ghost is worth what its own liquidity pays, nothing more.
- No vault. Every sale and every buy goes from your wallet straight to the pons curve or the Uniswap pool. We never hold your tokens or your ETH.
- No promises. Most ghosts return dust, and the Lab says so before you sign.
Which ghosts
Only tokens launched on pons (v1 or v2). Dead and Ghost tokens qualify; Haunted tokens only with fewer than 20 transfers in the last 7 days. Alive and Zombie tokens never do. The labels are explained in How we label.
- pons v2, still on its curve: sold straight back to its own bonding curve. The curve always buys back until the token graduates. The standard fee and that token's creator fee come off the proceeds.
- pons v1: sold in its Uniswap v3 pool against WETH, and the WETH is turned into ETH.
- pons v2, graduated: not handled by the Lab. You can still bury it.
How it goes
- Your autopsy lists the eligible ghosts with their Remains (estimated ETH) and the price impact of selling.
- You sign the exact approval and the sale for each ghost from your own wallet. The ETH lands in your wallet; we are never in the middle.
- The Lab fills in the buy amount, and you sign the $GRAVE buy.
- Each ghost gets a tombstone, or its tombstone gets a line saying what it was reborn as.
Wallets that can batch transactions send every step with one confirmation. Other wallets ask for one signature per step.
The guards
- Every number is an estimate. The quote is read again right before you sign.
- Every sale has a minimum output 1% below the quote, so a quote that moves against you fails instead of filling badly.
- If a sale would move its curve or pool by more than 10%, the Lab asks you to confirm again; by more than 30%, the sale is closed and the Lab suggests burying it instead.
- If the Remains are less than 3 times the estimated gas, the Lab says it is not worth reanimating and only offers Bury.
- Approvals are for the exact amount of each sale. Never unlimited.

[For legal review: governing law, jurisdiction, minimum age and any restricted regions.]
1. Who we are
Grave Onchain is an independent project at graveonchain.com. Built on Robinhood Chain. Not affiliated with Robinhood or pons.
2. What the site does
The site reads public onchain data, labels the tokens a wallet holds, lets a wallet's owner record a burial by signing a message, and links to smart contracts you can use from your own wallet. It never holds your tokens or your ETH, never takes custody of anything, and cannot move anything from your wallet.
3. Not advice
Labels are heuristics computed from public onchain data. Not financial advice, not an accusation. Estimates such as P/L and Remains can be wrong or out of date. Nothing on the site tells you to buy, hold or sell anything.
4. Your wallet, your transactions
You sign every message and every transaction yourself, and transactions on a blockchain cannot be undone. Check what you sign. We will never DM you first, and we will never ask for your recovery phrase. Approvals the site asks for are for the exact amount of one action, never unlimited.
5. The token and the Patch
The rules of the Patch are on How the Patch works. Pumpkins depend on onchain balances, and what each one holds is known only when its seal breaks. The token has no promised value, and nothing on the site is a promise of any amount of ETH, dollars or anything else.
[For legal review: whether holding the token to take part in the Patch counts as consideration in the relevant jurisdictions.]
6. Epitaphs
You are responsible for what you write. Epitaphs may not contain links, addresses, profanity or the names of real people, and may not harass or accuse anyone. We may remove any epitaph. Removal deletes its text from the site; the grave, its number and the onchain hash stay, since only the hash is ever written onchain. Takedown requests: @graveonchain on X.
[For legal review: licence to display user epitaphs on cards and share images.]
7. The Gravelist
The full rules are on the Gravelist page. In short: one entry per wallet and per X account; the account must be public, and both posts must stay up until the Gravelist closes. When it closes, the eligible entries with the highest Sorsa Score each win one pumpkin, claimed from Harvest like any other. Entries that break these rules, or come from accounts the bot filter turns away, do not count.
[For legal review: X's rules on paid or incentivised posts, and advertising disclosure rules in some countries, when posts earn tokens.]
8. Use you agree not to make
No attempts to break, overload or scrape the site beyond normal use, no impersonating the project or its team, and no use that breaks the law where you are.
9. No warranty
The site and the contracts are provided as they are. They may have bugs, be unavailable, or change. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for losses from using them.
[For legal review: limitation of liability wording.]
10. Changes
We may update these terms. The date of each change will be shown on this page.
The little off-chain data we process, and why. Draft.
Draft: for legal review, not yet in force
Onchain data is public
Everything the Autopsy and the Patch show comes from public blockchain data that anyone can read. Searching a wallet reads that public data; it does not reveal anything that is not already onchain.
What we process off-chain, and why
We process six kinds of off-chain personal data, only for security, to keep the site running, to see how it is used and to run the Gravelist:
- IP addresses, to limit request rates and to stop abuse.
- Error logs, to find and fix faults. An error log can include the page you were on, your browser type and your IP address.
- Takedown requests sent to our X account, to handle a request to remove an epitaph, and to reply to it.
- Epitaph reports: the wallet address that signed a report, the signature and the reason, to count each wallet once and to review reported epitaphs.
- Gravelist entries: the wallet that signed the entry and its code, the X account's username and ID, the two posts, the account's follower count and creation date when you entered, and its Sorsa Score, to check the task, to keep one entry per wallet and per X account, and to pick the winners. The posts and the account data are public on X; we read them through the Sorsa API.
- Page views, counted by Vercel Web Analytics to see how the site is used: the page and its address, the referring site, your approximate location (country, region and city), and your browser, operating system and device type. It sets no cookies; a visitor is counted by a hash of the request that is discarded after 24 hours. A wallet address in a page's address is removed before the view is sent.
[For legal review: retention period for each, the hosting and monitoring providers that process them, and the legal basis; for Gravelist entries also Sorsa, and for page views Vercel, as processors.]
What you publish
A burial is public by design: the grave shows the burying wallet's address, the token, the date and the epitaph, and its hash is anchored onchain. An epitaph can be taken down; its text is then deleted from the site, while the onchain hash stays.
The Gravelist winners are listed on the site by X username only. Their wallets appear only in the winners file the Patch is verified with, in address order and without usernames.
What we never ask for
No accounts and no passwords. We never ask for your recovery phrase or your private keys, and we never DM you first.

Who we are not.
Built on Robinhood Chain. Not affiliated with Robinhood or pons.
Grave Onchain is an independent project. Robinhood Chain is the network the site reads and the contracts run on. pons is the public launchpad the token was created on, open to anyone. Neither has reviewed, endorsed or partnered with this project, and their names appear here only to say where things run.
We use no logos or brand assets of either.
How to know it is us
- The only domain is graveonchain.com.
- The CA appears on this site at launch. Token names and tickers are not unique on pons; the address is what counts.
- Every card we make carries the domain and the CA.
- We will never DM you first, and we will never ask for your recovery phrase.
