🧵 We’re excited to announce that Patchwork is live on @base! Patchwork is a fresh new protocol that empowers tokens, contracts, and addresses with rich, interactive, interconnected layers of onchain data. https://blog.patchwork.dev/hello-world

Patchwork started when our team was working on an idea for a data-rich NFT project where users could earn seasonal NFT traits and compose, recompose, and decompose them together at will. We quickly realized that all the things we wanted to enable weren’t fully possible using existing standards or tools.

The more we dug in, the more we realized how broad the potential use cases were for a CRUD-capable, database-like, tokenized data primitive and protocol that allowed for full onchain data availability and interoperability between projects. We decided to tackle this and Patchwork was born.

Patchwork works by extending ERC721 with a standardized onchain metadata format and data interaction utilities, effectively turning NFT contracts into database tables where each token represents a row of data. Multiple contracts can be hooked together to create rich datasets with complex relationships between them.

Additionally, individual pieces of data from a token can be further encapsulated as a separate NFT altogether, allowing for added secondary utility where granular bits can be traded, pooled, loaned, and all the other NFT verbs.

Schemas and datasets are dynamic and mutable, ensuring projects can continually grow and adapt their onchain IP.

Patchwork also introduces the ability to permissionlessly soulbind—or “Patch”—these datasets to other existing onchain entities. Any developer can annotate and extend the onchain world with their own vibrant data, and anyone else can do the same to that developer’s data.

We're also launching a couple fun projects we built with Patchwork to show off some of its different functionality and ownership modes: 👇

🐘 Elephants.fun: Mint traits, combine them into an Elephant, and swap traits at will. While assigned, traits can’t be transferred and ownership is proxied to the Elephant owner. When the Elephant is transferred, the entire ownership tree goes with it.
