LoreSeed · x402

Own your lore one plot point at a time. Every story contribution, world-building detail, or character arc is registered via a 0.01 USDC micropayment, creating a cryptographically signed provenance trail. Pay to mint a narrative claim; pay to verify a peer's lore; pay to fork a story branch. It turns fan-fiction and collaborative world-building into a structured, pay-per-entry IP ledger where the creator of the original seed earns on every downstream derivative settle.

The primitive.

full primer →

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

Why this primitiveBy atomizing story ownership to the 'beat' level, we enable a high-velocity narrative market. The x402 model replaces messy legal contracts with instant, micro-transactional IP registration, making it viable for digital-native writers and AI-collaborative storytelling.
