Onchain Is the New Library of Alexandria
But this time, it will last forever
We’re entering a world where AI creates single-use apps, content, and ideas faster than we can process them. Without permanence, we lose context, history, and the ability to make sense together.
Why Onchain Matters for the Meta-Layer
In a world of ephemeral content and disposable interfaces, we need a shared, immutable layer for:
✍️ Declarations
🧭 Shared references
📜 Governance histories
🕸️ Sensemaking frameworks
📡 Cultural memory
🧬 Protocol evolution
🛠 Code and decisions that shape the web itself
Transparent
Accessible
Forkable
Permanent
(hello, Bitcoin)
We believe this onchain record should be:


The Digital Pace Layers
Inspired by Stewart Brand’s original Pace Layer concept, we offer a new one for the Meta-Layer:


🪙 Satplications: Protocols with Memory
The Meta-Layer project is the first to comprehensively document itself onchain, using an application that runs 100% on Bitcoin via the BRC333 protocol.
We’re embedding:
✍️ Our founding documents
🎓 The Desirable Properties
🧱 Use case definitions
📡 Contributor lists
🧬 Governance logic
🎖 Overweb badge metadata
🧠 Even the cat herders
Everything. Onchain. Forever.


💥 Why This Is a Big Deal
Most protocols forget how they were built.
We’re building one that remembers.
You’ll be able to:
Reference it
Fork it
Inherit it
Audit it
Translate it
Mourn it
Build from it
And never lose the cultural context that made it matter.
