Metagame x Polyweave

Metagame & Polyweave are teaming up to bring human-readable transactions to Ethereum.

Metagame’s long term vision is to create the stable infrastructure, environments, and tooling required to foster the emergence of values-based communities with religious levels of alignment. Values are truly defined by one’s actions, and the truest actions are signed by a private key. 

To understand one’s values, we are starting with interpreting one’s actions on blockchains.

Metagame looked for tools or infrastructure that did this, but found nothing that fit our needs. Since February, we’ve been building. In March, we found Polyweave, a company with a vision of exactly what we need: human-readable transactions across multiple chains. They were already hard at work building for Solana, with Ethereum/EVM slated for the future.

This week, we’ve solidified a partnership to build out and open-source interpreting Ethereum transactions ASAP.

Why build it open-source?

  1. Metagame NFTs/badges/achievements need to be independently verifiable. You shouldn’t have to trust Metagame that someone has earned an NFT from on-chain activity, you should be able to verify it yourself.
  2. It lets others contribute interpretations of contract interactions and even entire new modules (on top of normal stuff like finding and fixing bugs).
  3. It lets people host their own infra, if they so choose.

Metagame will be Polyweave’s first Alpha customer on their Ethereum interpreter API. We can’t wait to show you what Metagame is building and how Polyweave enables it.

If you’d like to contribute contract-specific interpretations (by submitting a JSON template), please fill out this form. All accepted contributions will be paid via on-chain bounties.

If you’ve been working on open-source indexing, decoding, or interpreting infrastructure, please reach out!

If you’re looking to build on top of Polyweave’s API (for any chain!), please fill out this form.
