💃 Dance & Choreography · metaverse dance spaces

LEAD · x402

An immersive spatial layer for Base where choreography is metered by the frame. Users pay 0.01 USDC to unlock studio access, mint a choreography sequence, or record a spatial performance. Every 'Save' or 'Sync' triggers an x402 payment, ensuring instructors and asset creators receive instant, atomic settlement for their spatial IP.

The primitive.

full primer →

Access to the metaverse dance spaces 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 primitiveBy shifting from 'token gating' to 'pay-per-action,' the studio transforms from a static space into a high-frequency economy. Dancers pay for the specific time and tools they use, rather than a fixed entry fee.
