PlotProof · x402

A decentralized narrative vault where every plot twist is metered. Writers lock high-concept premises behind x402 gates; producers pay 0.01 USDC to 'peek' at the full synopsis or 1.00 USDC to secure a 24-hour option. Each interaction generates a Hedera transaction id, providing an immutable paper trail of chain-of-title before the script is even written. Paid-per-read becomes the new standard for IP discovery.

The primitive.

full primer →

Access to the story licensing 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 turning 'reading' into a micro-transaction, we eliminate the friction of traditional NDAs and create a high-velocity marketplace for intellectual property. The facilitator acts as a notary for creative intent.
