For sale: a 142,000-line crypto research product, with the weak spots listed first ($4,900)
I am selling BOTLAB outright: the code, the domain, the brand and the site content. Asking price is $4,900, through third-party escrow.
Most sale posts open with the good news. This one opens with what a buyer would find anyway.
The weak spots
- Users: 2 registered, 0 new in the last 7 days.
- Revenue: $0 in the last 7 days.
- Trading: no proven edge. One live bot made +$4.27 over 98 trades, another lost $1.97 over 99 (figures from 4 Nov 2026). Treat that as break-even, and do not buy this for trading profit.
- Marketing: automated marketing ran for weeks without producing sign-ups.
- Portability: it runs on one Windows server, with paths hardcoded in about 118 places. Moving it will take days to weeks.
- Handover: the package has not been installed on a clean machine, and there is no git history.
- Exclusivity: part of the code is already public under the MIT licence.
- StuckScan gaps: Solana stake data needs a paid RPC key, and saved reports and wallet watch have not been tested with a real account.
What is in the box
| Part | What it does | Size |
|---|---|---|
| Website and API | Accounts, public strategy results, news, SEO pages | 132 files, 44,859 lines |
| StuckScan | Free browser tool that checks a public wallet address on 20 chains for staked, locked or stuck assets | Part of the site; watcher 781 lines |
| AI team | Scheduled agents for marketing, SEO, support, partner email and reporting, with a compliance reviewer before auto-posting | 4,957 lines, plus 1,814 for a local-model core |
| Bots and research | Paper and live-capable Bybit perpetual bots, backtesting, statistical gates | About 78,000 lines |
| Operations | Fleet monitoring, dashboards, risk checks | About 12,000 lines |
In total that is 727 files and 142,302 lines of Python, JavaScript, HTML, SQL and PowerShell. Keys, exchange accounts, trading funds and open positions are not included.
What I think is worth paying for
A research record that admits failure. Of 65 paper strategies tracked, 51 were rejected, and the failures stay public. One passes all six statistical gates, and that result may be mostly bull-market exposure. I would say so to any buyer.
A narrow free tool. StuckScan is read-only, with no wallet connection and no sign-up. "Paste an address and see what is staked, locked or claimable" is the one thing here that explains itself in a sentence.
Search groundwork. All 77 sitemap pages returned 200 with their own title, description, H1 and canonical URL when I last checked on 5 Nov. That is groundwork, not traffic, and I am not claiming traffic.
Who should buy this
Someone who already has an audience in crypto, trading tools or wallets. What this project lacks is distribution. If you have no audience, you would inherit the same problem I could not solve.
The deal
$4,900 through third-party escrow. The code and domain are delivered once funds are in escrow. I include 14 days of handover support by chat, then I stop operating the project and do not sell the code to anyone else.
