30 copy-paste README templates for crypto and open-source repos. Pick your project type, replace the placeholders, ship a README that answers the questions users and reviewers ask.

Most repo READMEs fail the same way: no quickstart, no trust model, no license clarity. This pack fixes the structure so you only write content. You get 30 standalone Markdown files grouped by project type: token and DeFi protocols, NFT collections, wallets, bridges and L2s, bots and tools, datasets, SDKs and dev libraries, SaaS apps, hackathon and bounty submissions, personal projects.

Every template carries the same backbone: badge stubs, overview, quickstart with install/run blocks, architecture diagram skeleton, parameter and address tables where they belong, a security section (audits, upgrade keys, incident contact), testing, contributing, and license.

Built for crypto teams shipping fast: the bridge template makes you state your trust model plainly, the hackathon templates include a "what's real vs mocked" section judges check, the dataset templates enforce a schema table and source method. Nothing in the templates makes claims for you. All chain names, addresses, and numbers are placeholders you fill with facts.

Format: plain Markdown, works on GitHub, GitLab, and any docs site. Includes a full index with use cases per template.

License: personal and commercial use in your own projects. No resale or redistribution of the pack as-is. Provided as-is.
