GhostStep · x402

A metered motion-library where every movement signature is a commodity. Use x402 to micro-lease choreography sequences. Dancers pay 0.01 USDC to unlock an IPFS-stored JSON 'ghost-frame' overlay or skeletal data for a specific challenge. Instead of a free repository, it's a high-velocity exchange where creators earn per-lesson, and AI pose-estimation nodes verify completion to unlock the next sequence in a global chain.

The primitive.

full primer →

Access to the community choreography engine is metered with x402: 0.01 HBAR or 0.01 HTS USDC per call, paid from the embedded wallet, so choreographers — or the agents working for them — pay per query and get a HashScan receipt every time.

Why this primitiveTurning choreography into granular data (JSON) makes it perfectly suited for micropayments. By charging per 'step' or 'unlock', you monetize the specific creative labor of the choreographer rather than relying on platform ad-revenue. x402 handles the high-volume, low-value nature of individual dance steps.
