Grimoire · Pay to Anchor

Lore is the ultimate metadata. Pixel Lore Vault converts crowd-sourced game world-building into a metered library. Narrative persistence is no longer a volunteer effort; it's a high-integrity, paid-access historical record where contributors earn from the provenance of their storytelling. One 0.01 USDC payment over x402 anchors the WOTS+ seal on-chain — no subscription, no account.

Game designers pay 0.01 USDC once, in-page, and the game narrative archiving seal is written on-chain for them — no funded host-chain wallet, no subscription, just a payment log that ends in a real transaction.

Why this primitiveLoading details…

Kernel
a 0.01 USDC payment over x402 on Base Sepolia that buys one on-chain anchor — the server verifies the settlement, then a relayer writes the user's WOTS+ seal into the QUIP verifier on the host chain
Drives the UI as
a numbered payment log running from 402 challenge to settled USDC to the host-chain anchor tx, every hash a clickable explorer link
