There Will Be Signs platform with token-gated member tools and crypto community features

The challenge

What needed to happen.

  • There Will Be Signs is a meme coin project, but the goal was never just a landing page. It needed a real platform where token holders get ongoing utility and community value.
  • Member-only tools had to be gated by verified Solana wallet holdings, not a simple login, which meant on-chain verification, session handling, and a UX that still feels approachable.
  • The feature set grew well beyond a typical promotional site: courses, trackers, planners, and daily content, all needed to work together under one roof.

Approach

How the build was structured.

  • Built wallet connection and token verification as the access layer. Tools unlock only when the user connects a Solana wallet and holds the project token.
  • Designed each utility as a focused module (courses, portfolio planner, trader tracker, daily mindset content) so the platform can grow without becoming unusable.
  • Prioritized member experience over marketing flash: people who hold the token should find real tools, not just hype.

What was built

Key deliverables and features.

Solana wallet gating

Connect-wallet flow with on-chain token verification, the foundation that unlocks every member-only feature on the platform.

Daily mindset quotes and exercises

Generated daily content for holders, a recurring reason to return to the platform beyond price action.

Crypto and DeFi courses

Structured courses with progress and results stored per user, educational content that persists across sessions.

Portfolio planner

Allocation suggestions based on risk tolerance, a practical planning tool inside the member area.

Hyperliquid trader tracker

Tracking and visibility for Hyperliquid trading activity, built for members who want on-chain trading context in one place.

Personal portfolio tracker

Holdings and position visibility for connected wallets, another utility layer for active community members.

Outcome

Where things stand now.

  • A promotional crypto project elevated into a functioning member platform, not just a token page with a buy button.
  • Token gating works end-to-end: wallet connect, verification, and access to the full toolset for qualified holders.
  • The breadth of custom tooling here represents the upper end of what I build: complex integrations, persistent user data, and utility-focused web apps behind a single brand.

I can share platform usage and engagement snapshots for this build on request, helpful context if you are evaluating custom tooling or gated experiences.
