StageRead · Paid Certificate

A high-frequency talent scout protocol where every audition tape submission and casting call 'side' download is a micro-settlement. This replaces monthly subscription models with a 'pay-per-opportunity' architecture, preventing platform bloat and ensuring only high-intent interactions between talent and production. Paying 0.01 USDC over x402 returns a signed provenance certificate for the work.
