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.
