Each stroke is a transaction. Viewers pay $0.01 per minute of live stream access or $0.05 to unlock a high-res JPG export of the current canvas state via the embedded wallet-signed HTS transfer. Artists receive instant settlement as they draw, moving from 'hopeful tipping' to 'granular metering'.

The primitive.

full primer →

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

Why this primitiveCurrent streaming models rely on platform-heavy subscriptions or infrequent, large donations. Reframing the stream as a metered asset allows for high-frequency, low-friction settlement where the audience pays exactly for their dwell time and specific interactions.

art ownership tracking
HardTrace · x402
An on-chain verification layer where creators and galleries pay 0.01 USDC to append or verify high-fidelity provenance events. Trade paper trails for a micro-paid, immutable ledger of truth.
generative art minting
Gen-Seed · x402
A headless seed-to-string engine where 0.01 USDC triggers a unique generative iteration. Instead of a heavy upfront minting fee, users pay per 'Evolution Sign-off.' Artists deploy logic; collectors pay per high-fidelity render, receiving a Hedera transaction id as proof of unique generation. The payment is the shutter click.
gallery exhibition tracking
Exhibit · x402
Provenance is a living ledger, not a static database. Exhibit pays the artist 0.01 USDC every time a curator, insurer, or buyer pulls a verified exhibition history or updates a physical location tag. Turn the 'paper trail' into a real-time revenue stream for estates and digital creators.
