Protonauts: Pioneering Onchain Characters

Protonauts is an Ethereum-based project that redefines the concept of onchain NFT characters. Unlike traditional NFT projects that rely on centralized services to host their token assets, Protonauts takes a different approach:

  • 🖼️ Fully Onchain Rendering: The image and attributes of each Protonaut, and the gear they equip, are generated and displayed directly from smart contract code.
  • 🔗 Decentralized & Immutable: No dependence on external servers or APIs for asset storage.
  • 🚀 Cutting-Edge Technology: Leveraging Ethereum's layer two scaling capabilities to push the boundaries of what's possible with onchain NFTs and cross-chain interactions.
  • ⚡ Powered by Web3's Best: Built on top of battle-tested protocols like The Graph, Across, and Wormhole.

By encoding both visual and attribute data directly into the blockchain, Protonauts ensures true ownership, permanence, and interoperability for each unique character.

Features​

  • 🔄 Inward Interoperability: Characters can earn items through participating in various onchain games. Any readable state can be turned into a quest or a requirement for progressing your character.
  • 🌐 Outward Interoperability: Protonauts can be used as playable characters, keys to access areas, AI companions to aid you in your journey, or any other various use case fostered by the individual world or experience.
  • 🛠️ Extensible Architecture: Built to evolve with the onchain ecosystem, allowing for future expansions and integrations.
  • ⏳ Built to Last: Designed with future-proof architecture to withstand the test of time and blockchain evolution.
  • 🤝 Community-Driven Development: Focusing on tools to allow creators to utilize their Protonaut in a variety of ways.
