The HashUp idea in a nutshell is on-chain licenses that we can hold in a wallet. Through years of creating such an infrastructure, we have defined completely new concepts that stem from a new approach to licensing.
ERC20 License - On-chain license token you can hold in any crypto wallet connected to files outside the blockchains. Every license for games/movies is a separate token license token where supply refers to copies of the content. You need to have one copy of the game in your wallet to be able to play it!
GameSwap - HashUp licenses, once unlocked, can go to decentralized exchanges (DEXs) like Uniswap. HashUp uses the most popular DEXs, instead of creating its own DEXs - all tokens from Uniswap can be exchanged for all DEX games. Swappable licenses create the idea of License Finance / LicenseFi / LiFi, with is a free market of licenses. Each swap or transfer between players
Blockchain - Decentralized and open for everyone database. You can build any infrastructure on top of the data on the blockchain.
Public Address - Ethereum public addresses are unique strings of numbers and letters that represent a destination on the Ethereum blockchain. They allow you to receive and send Ethereum and other tokens. They usually start with “0x” and are usually 42 characters long. Example public address: 0x5E798CE8e53a3FE16842C233e8802Dc3b09A8451 Wallets and contracts have their own public addresses which identify them. HashUp licenses are extended ERC20 contracts, so they also have their own public address.
Ethereum - First programmable blockchain to introduce smart contracts.
Gas - every on-chain transaction like buying a license requires some gas with its transaction fees. Gas results in less spam on the network because each transaction requires a small fee. Example gas usage: Ethereum license transfer - 5 - 10$, swap 15$ Polygon license transfer - 0.01$, swap 0.01$ BNB license transfer - 0.30$, swap 0.50$
Smart Contracts - A smart contract is a or a that is intended to automatically execute, control, or document events and actions according to the terms of a or an agreement. Your ERC20 License is an example of a smart contract - a digital CD made by permanent code.
Polygon - a native blockchain that powers HashUp licenses with cheap (<0.01$) and fast (<10s) transactions. Polygon is a higher layer over Ethereum, which is currently too expensive to use for licensing. Learn more:
