SceneLock · Metered

A scriptwriter’s assembly line where every scene-pull is a micro-settlement. Payment triggers the instant EIP-3009 transfer, returning a Base tx hash that serves as the cryptographically verifiable 'Right to Render' for that specific narrative beat. Every unlock is a single 0.01 USDC payment behind an HTTP 402 gate — you pay for what you actually use.

The primitive.

full primer →

The valuable script segments operation sits behind an HTTP 402 that states its price before anyone signs, so writers pay per unlock instead of per month.

Why this primitiveLoading details…

Kernel
an HTTP 402 challenge in front of exactly one valuable operation — an export, a render, a full-resolution download — where each unlock is a single USDC payment bound to its settlement tx
Drives the UI as
a locked panel that states its price before you sign, plus an 'unlocks bought / used' counter beside the released payload
