Meme Licensing & Remix Flows

FX402 enables creators to monetize memes, templates, and media by defining how others can rent, remix, and reuse them — on-chain.


🧩 1. Concept

Every meme (image, PSD, SVG, etc.) becomes a rentable asset.
Renters gain usage rights based on purchased license tiers, including:

  • view — read-only display
  • remix — modify and repost
  • commercial-lite — monetize within limits

💸 2. Example: Meme Rental Offer

{ "standard": "x402", "profile": "r402/v1", "usage": { "modes": ["view", "remix", "commercial-lite"], "tiers": [ { "id": "1d", "price": { "amount": "0.05", "currency": "USDC" } }, { "id": "30d", "price": { "amount": "0.25", "currency": "USDC" } } ] }, "pay_to": { "address": "SoLWalletMeme...", "chain": "solana" } }

🧠 3. Remixer Payouts (Optional)

Creators can specify a facilitator split to reward remixes and downstream creators:

{ "facilitator": "https://facilitator.fx402.xyz/settle", "split": { "creator": 0.9, "remixer": 0.1 } }

The facilitator automatically divides proceeds upon verification and payout.


🧩 4. Licensing Flow

StepAction
1️⃣Viewer sees meme preview and license terms
2️⃣Pays small USDC fee for remix rights
3️⃣Receives a license receipt (e.g., valid for 30 days)
4️⃣Uploads derivative work referencing parent meme
5️⃣Facilitator tracks remix lineage (optional)

🧰 5. Suggested Rights Combinations

ModePurpose
viewFree consumption tier (no editing)
remixEnables meme derivatives
commercial-litePermits small ad revenue or paid posts
commercial-proPremium licensing tier for brands or media organizations

💬 6. Example UX Pattern

  • Show a “Rent This Meme” button on every NFT detail page.
  • Embed r402 metadata directly in the NFT’s JSON, describing terms and tiers.
  • Display license duration & mode badges (e.g., “Remix License — 30d”).
  • Auto-expire stale or unauthorized remixes by validating r402 license receipts.
