Preglyph Ancient signal, blockchain-native writing
Inspired by ancient stone records and modern chain identity

Write only when your presence is real.

Preglyph is a blockchain-native writing surface inspired by the feeling of hidden inscriptions: durable, mysterious, and legible only when the signal is authentic. Connect a wallet, prove presence, and unlock the right to leave a mark.

MetaMask-first Presence-auth-gated writing Stone + glyph visual language

What the UI should feel like

Not a generic crypto dashboard. Not a noisy social feed. A premium, mysterious writing layer with carved geometry, faint glyph grids, chain-native signals, and quiet motion.

Visual language

Stone, glyphs, low light

Use engraved surfaces, muted gold and violet accents, thin linework, and almost-ritual spacing.

Interaction model

Unlock, do not browse

The strongest action is not scrolling endlessly. It is earning the right to inscribe.

Blockchain tone

Trust through signal

Wallet state, verified presence, and durable authorship should feel integral to the interface.

Writer gate
Connect MetaMask, then verify Presence.

Your product rule makes sense: a connected wallet can write only if that wallet has passed Presence Auth. MetaMask is enough for the first connection layer. Presence verification is the unlock condition.

Wallet
Current connected address
Not connected
Presence Auth
Should decide whether writing unlocks
Verifier not wired yet
Writing access
Enabled only when wallet + Presence pass are both valid
Locked
Right now the UI is live, but the web Presence verifier still needs a real endpoint before writing can unlock for actual passed wallets.
Composer
The inscription surface

This is the right behavior: no verified presence, no writing.

Locked until a connected wallet is confirmed as Presence-passed.

What tools fit this direction

Use mystery carefully. The best result comes from restrained motion, not effects everywhere.

Best foundation

Next.js + CSS/SVG + GSAP

Most of the site should stay DOM-based: typography, grids, masks, glow, symbols, and premium motion.

Selective depth

One Three.js / R3F hero scene

Use one contained 3D or shader moment for the hero monolith instead of turning the whole site into WebGL.

Wallet layer

wagmi + viem + RainbowKit

Simple MetaMask-first connection now, with space to grow into richer wallet or auth flows later.

Product rule

Yes โ€” writing should unlock only after Presence Auth passes.

1
Connect MetaMask
Wallet is the first identity anchor.
2
Verify Presence pass
The verifier decides if the wallet is eligible to write.
3
Unlock composer
Only passed wallets can create inscriptions.
4
Publish onchain-aware content
The inscription becomes a durable, attributable signal.
Atmosphere layer

Poneglyph inspiration without cosplay

The best design move is to borrow the feeling: carved secrets, old stone, quiet authority, hidden meaning. Not literal anime imitation.
