Lost Ethereum

Hi guys, I've written the first proof-of-mistake crypto token on top of Ethereum. You can see it at http://www.lostethereum.com/ It's basically a proof-of-burn substitute for users who mistakenly sent to the wrong address. It requires a web3 enabled browser, i.e chome with MetaMask, Parity, Mist, etc. This let's the web interface seamlessly interact with the Ethereum network. Let me know what you guys think.

In plain words

Lost Ethereum is a token built on the Ethereum blockchain designed for users who have accidentally sent cryptocurrency to the wrong address. It functions as a proof-of-burn alternative, allowing recovery of mistaken transactions. The application runs through a web interface and requires a Web3-enabled browser such as Chrome with MetaMask, Parity, or Mist to interact with the Ethereum network.
