How the lot works

Every memecoin you ever bought left a token account in your wallet. When the coin dies, the account stays — holding a worthless balance and about ◎0.002 of your SOL as rent. Nobody sells a rug. Midway is where you bury it.

Three things happen at every burial:

• ✝The dead tokens are burned and the account is closed, so your rent comes home.
• ✝If the token cost you real money, the loss becomes a ticket to tonight's draw.
• ✝The grave goes into the public graveyard, and its deployer gets a line on their rap sheet.

Meanwhile the Barker — the rabbit — reads the tokens you still hold and scores how close each one is to zero. Burying is the ritual; the Death Clock is the warning.

1. 01
   Connect

   Phantom, Solflare or Backpack. Connecting only shares your public address.

2. 02
   Read

   Midway lists every SPL and Token-2022 account you own and looks up each token's market on Jupiter, falling back to DexScreener.

3. 03
   Choose

   Buryable bags are pre-selected. Untick anything you want to keep.

4. 04
   Sign

   Your wallet shows the transactions. Up to seven graves fit in one transaction.

5. 05
   Stub

   When the chain confirms, you get a stub: what you buried, what came back, and your tickets.

What counts as dead

Solana charges a deposit for every account that exists on chain. A standard token account holds 0.00203928 SOL; Token-2022 accounts with extensions hold a little more. The deposit is yours, and it comes back the moment the account is closed.

An account can only be closed when it's empty, so each grave is two instructions: burnChecked destroys the remaining tokens, closeAccount returns the rent to you. A wallet that has aped for a year typically holds 100–400 of these — ◎0.2 to ◎0.8 sitting in the dirt.

Midway keeps 5% of the rent each burial returns. All of it goes into tonight's pot — the cut is a plain SOL transfer inside your burial transaction, so you see it before you sign.

• ✝The pot wallet is public, so anyone can watch it fill.
• ✝One winner takes the night's pot.
• ✝A night with no tickets rolls its pot into the next.

A ticket says you took a real loss. The rules are built so that faking one costs more than it could ever win.

So a $100 loss is about 2 tickets and $1,000 or more caps at 3. One wallet holds at most 25 tickets a night. Loss is estimated from your swap history: SOL and stablecoins you spent on the token, minus what you got back.

The draw closes every night at 18:00 UTC (21:00 MSK). The winner is picked from a seed nobody could know in advance and nobody can choose: the hash of the first finalized Solana block stamped at least 60 seconds after the close. It's fixed by the chain, not by when our server happens to run.

block   = first finalized block with blockTime ≥ close + 60s
seed    = block.blockhash + ":" + night
total   = Σ round(tickets × 100)          over all entrants
roll    = sha256(seed) mod total
winner  = walk entrants sorted by address,
          add each one's round(tickets × 100),
          the first whose running sum passes roll

Anyone can re-run it. /api/draw/proof?epoch=N returns the seed, the slot, every entrant with their tickets and the winner. The payout is a normal SOL transfer from the pot wallet, linked on the site once sent.

For every token you still hold that trades, the Barker computes a score from 0 to 100: how close it looks to zero. It's a sum of named symptoms, so every point has a reason you can read.

Verdicts

When the pool is shrinking, the Barker also projects when it runs dry if today's bleed rate holds. It's a projection, not a prophecy — pools recover, and healthy-looking tokens get rugged in one block.

Every burial records the token's deployer (from Jupiter's index). Over time the graveyard becomes a record no scanner has: which deployers keep leaving bodies, and how many people had to bury them.

• ✝Paste any token or deployer into the Barker's rap sheet to see their launches, graduations and graves.
• ✝The Hall of shame ranks deployers by mourners.
• ✝The ticker at the bottom of the lot is every burial, live.

• ✝Midway never holds your keys or your tokens. Every grave is a transaction you sign.
• ✝Reading your wallet needs no signature at all.
• ✝A burial transaction contains only: compute budget, a MIDWAY memo, burnChecked and closeAccount for the bags you chose, and the pot cut. If your wallet shows anything else, don't sign.
• ✝Burning is permanent. A burned token can't be recovered, even if it comes back to life.
• ✝The only official links are the ones posted by @midwaylot. Nobody from Midway will DM you.

Until launch it reads “soon”. Any address you see elsewhere before it appears here is not ours.
