## Team / Description

# Project Description - Git3

## Overview

Git3 is infrastructure that brings Git repositories on-chain, enabling true code ownership, censorship resistance, and monetization through the x402 protocol.

Today's code hosting is centralized and fragile. Developers risk losing access, ownership, and revenue from their own creations. Code repositories live on centralized platforms like GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket, where developers trust these platforms to keep their code online, preserve history, and not censor or remove it. This trust is invisible but absolute.

Git3 solves this by storing Git repositories permanently on the Irys blockchain, where each repository lives as a unique on-chain NFT. Blockchain ensures integrity, permanence, and true ownership. Developers can set clone or access prices, enabling transparent, trustless code verification and monetization.

**The Vampire Attack Strategy**: Git3 doesn't compete with GitHub—it extends it. Instead of asking developers to switch tools, Git3 runs invisibly through a GitHub Action that brings code on-chain instantly and effortlessly. This seamless integration allows developers to maintain their existing workflows while gaining blockchain benefits.

With Git3, developers receive:

- **Permanent On-Chain Storage**: Complete Git history stored on Irys blockchain with cryptographic verification
- **Repository as NFT**: Each repository is a unique on-chain asset with verifiable ownership
- **Monetization Capabilities**: Set access prices and earn from code through x402 protocol
- **Agent Interoperability**: Enable AI agents to interact with repositories through decentralized MCP (Model Context Protocol)
- **Censorship Resistance**: Code cannot be removed or censored once stored on-chain
- **Transparent Verification**: Trustless code integrity verification through blockchain timestamps

The long-term vision is to turn code into a new asset class—Code as an Asset (CAA)—unlocking a massive market opportunity in the $500B+ global developer economy, coupled with x402-driven payment rails for continuous revenue streams.
