Pieces is a dominant assurance contract platform for locked text on Base, settled in USDC.
We're in beta.

How it works

Creators show a preview, redact parts of the text, and lock the rest behind a funding goal and deadline.
Backers fund the Piece with USDC and can unback at any time before the deadline.
Bonders stake USDC into a bond pool so creators don't have to put up the assurance themselves.
If the Piece funds, bonders get their stake back plus a kickback from the creator's earnings.

All USDC stays in the contract until the deadline.

• Funded: text unlocks publicly, creator paid, bonders get principal back + kickback
• Not funded: backers get principal back + pro-rata share of forfeited bond pool

Backers get the text or get paid for backing. Bonders earn kickback when it funds.

Try it in test mode first

Sepolia test mode uses free test funds and short deadlines.
Create, back, or bond without touching mainnet.
