We developed an Unlock protocol plugin for Discourse. It let you lock topics behind a “crypto” paywall.
People have to buy your NFT with their crypto wallet (Mestamask, Wallet connect) to access topics. You can configure it with any ERC20 on Ethereum, xDai, Polygon…Since last week, you can also unlock with credit card payment.
Interesting, I wonder if there is a financial vehicle that could be engineered in the Ethereum (or other crypto engines) for repeat transactions. Would be kind of cool to offer a subscription service where you opt to pay X every month.
Can we setup unlock for comment? Only comment first or comment second not topic title and content main?
And, can we add charge by dollar via Visa or paypal not Crypto?
The core mechanism is to use the “approval” mechanism that the ERC20 contracts provide.
The core idea is to approve a 3rd party contract, called the “purchaser” whose single job is to purchase memberships on behalf of users when they are either expired (or soon to be expired). So basically a membership can only be “renewed” when it is either nearly expired, or fully expired.
One of the challenges that we’re trying to solve is to find who will trigger the transaction on that purchaser contract. Rigth now, the approach is to make the purchase “pay back” the person triggering the transaction so that this covers the gas fees. I think we can leverage the “flashbots” who have been doing arbitrage to do that!
It is definitely one of the things we’re trying to work on!
Amazing, I find some of the financial vehicles smart contracts have on offer to be fascinating. I think this could be extremely powerful as a way of funding the right community.
In particular we already have Discourse Subscriptions so perhaps a PR to allow for a “Unlock” mode vs “Stripe” may be an interesting path to take.
Ho creato 2 contratti di blocco sulla dashboard di Unlock
A. blocco per gli utenti che hanno token (1000 < importo < 5000)
B. blocco per gli utenti che hanno più di 5000 token
Per A, vorrei aggiungerli al gruppo A su discourse
Per B, vorrei aggiungerli al gruppo B su discourse
Attualmente il plugin Unlock supporta solo un contratto di blocco su discourse. C’è qualche trucco per raggiungere l’obiettivo?
Dato che si tratta di un plugin non ufficiale, ho spostato il tuo post nell’argomento del plugin Unlock, poiché penso che sarebbe un posto migliore per ottenere supporto da persone che ne sanno di più.
Temo che il supporto per questo plugin sia un po’ scarso a causa delle festività, ma (comunque) l’ho appena installato sul mio sito di test e anch’io vengo bloccato con un ‘Oops - Error 500’ con lo stesso errore registrato:

Penso che ci sia un conflitto con il plugin Chat in qualche modo. Se disabilito Chat tramite la console rails posso accedere al mio sito normalmente (inclusa la pagina /admin/plugins/discourse-unlock).
Mi era sfuggito quel cambio. Grazie per avermelo fatto notare.
