My friend and I have been doing some smart contract audits, and we wanted to build a fun contract ourselves. We remembered the Million Dollar Homepage from 12 years ago, and decided to reimagine what it would look like today _on the blockchain_.

We present, the **Thousand Ether Homepage:** https://thousandetherhomepage.com/

Launched last month, and sold 144 ETH worth so far. Not an ICO, but more of an experiment / art project. Perfect for promoting your fav ICO, though!

The smart contract itself: https://etherscan.io/address/0xb5fe93ccfec708145d6278b0c71ce60aa75ef925#code

What’s cool about it:

- It’s immortalized on the Ethereum blockchain. As long Ethereum is around, your ad slot will be yours to do with it what you please. No need to rely on us to run the service indefinitely.
- There’s no email signups, no passwords, no credit cards.
- You buy ads by calling a method on the smart contract with the correct Ether value, and tada. All done from an Ethereum-enabled browser (like the MetaMask extension or Mist/Parity).
- Once you buy an ad, the DApp _knows_ who you are from the wallet integration and you can edit it without logging in explicitly.

The buying experience looks like this:
