Client: Radix
Jay-Z gets paid every time someone streams his music, so why can’t a developer get paid every time someone uses their code?
We see a world where anyone who contributes code to the functionality of DeFi automatically gets rewarded.
It sounds crazy, but the album is about to drop.
They’re called Blueprints on the world’s first open-source DeFi marketplace, where developers can earn royalties from the code they build and share.
Here’s how it works…
Developers publish code to a catalog of common components right on the Radix Network. These Blueprints can be entire dApps or useful bits of functionality that can be leveraged by other developers to build their own dApps better and faster.
If desired, developers can set a royalty fee every time the Blueprint gets used in a real transaction.
Whether launching a new DeFi startup or contributing useful code to the network, the developer experience will never be the same.
Post-Malone and Billie Eilish wrote big money hits from their bedrooms with only a keyboard and internet connection. It’s time for DeFi developers to have the same opportunity.
All it takes is one hit - one Blueprint - to accelerate the trajectory of DeFi and reward developers in perpetuity.
In the words of Jay-Z, “I’m not a businessman, I’m a business, man.”
And so are developers. It’s time they start earning like one too.
