praxis

praxis was built by milesxb.bio — an actor, musician, playwright, and engineer. open source on github.

a network where artists get their own site, sell their work, fund projects, and build a permanent creative resume. your audience can follow you, fund your projects, and collect your art.

so that you truly own everything. your identity, your followers, your credentials, your money — none of it lives on our servers. no company can take it away, change the rules, or take a cut. payments go directly between wallets with no middleman. if praxis disappears tomorrow, your work and reputation remain permanent and verifiable. the blockchain is just the mechanism — the point is self-sovereignty.

none. sign up with a password, pick a domain, and your site is live. no apps to download, no extensions to install. everything happens in your browser.

a one-time network fee of 0.005 ETH to join. that covers your site and hosting as long as the network grows. you also pay for your domain at cost (~$5-15/yr depending on the TLD) — no markup. every action on the network (posting, following, etc.) costs fractions of a cent. you could follow 50,000 artists for $1.

your own website at your own domain, a blog, a private journal with a screenplay editor, encrypted messaging, the ability to sell music/video/art (100% to you), project funding tools, permanent credentials for every project you complete, and ten invite codes to share.

register as an audience member — it's free, no invite needed. you can follow artists, fund their projects, collect their media, and message them.

propose a show, film, album, or installation. set a goal, add your team and their revenue splits. your audience funds it through tiers. everything — the proposal, the funding, the splits, the dispute window — is enforced on the blockchain. no one can change the terms after the fact. when the work is done, everyone gets paid automatically, and every collaborator earns a permanent credential.

every project you complete earns you a permanent, verifiable credential stored on the blockchain. it's like a resume that builds itself — proof that you did the work. can't be faked, can't be revoked, can't be bought. anyone can verify it. it follows you forever, even if you leave praxis.

yes. list anything for sale with a price. add collaborators and their splits. when someone buys, the payment splits and goes directly to each wallet on-chain — no middlemen, no platform fee, no waiting for payouts.

completely. journal entries are encrypted so only you can read them. includes a full screenplay and stage play editor. when you're ready, publish entries as blog posts.

encrypted end-to-end. no one can read your messages — not even praxis. follow each other to unlock DMs. you can send money and share images directly in conversations.

your wallet is your identity across the entire network. visit any artist's site and you're automatically recognized — your follows, your collection, your messages, all there. no separate accounts, no passwords to remember per site. one identity, every site.

the math is simple. one server costs ~$30/month. that server handles thousands of artists. each artist pays a one-time network fee (~$12). 100 artists = $1,200 in fees, covering 3+ years of hosting. 1,000 artists = $12,000, covering 33 years. at 10,000 artists the fees cover infrastructure indefinitely. domain costs are paid separately by each artist at cost — no markup. there are no ads, no data sales, no investor pressure. the full breakdown is public.

0%. when you sell music, video, or art, 100% goes directly to you and your collaborators. when your project gets funded, 100% distributes per your team's splits. praxis never touches artist money. payments flow directly between wallets.

no. the architecture doesn't need them. registration fees cover hosting, domain renewals cover domains, and the code is open source so anyone can self-host for free. there's no business model that requires harvesting your data or attention.

you do. your identity, posts, credentials, and followers are stored on a shared public record (Ethereum) that no company controls. if praxis disappears tomorrow, your history remains permanent and verifiable. you can export your site and self-host anytime.

no. the agreements that run praxis are published code that nobody can alter — not us, not a company, not a government. there's no "terms of service" that changes under you.

yes. your account is encrypted with your password and never leaves your browser unencrypted. we can't access it. you'll get a recovery phrase during setup — keep it safe.

always. export your site from settings and run it on your own server. the code is open source. your on-chain data is permanent regardless.
