4. Interoperable Modules
4.1 Yours Protocol
At the core of MegaYours is Yours Protocol, which turns on-chain modules into reusable building blocks. Traditionally, modules are just code packages without data storage. Given the open storage approach of the blockchain, in this system, modules contain both logic and data, fully on-chain, with three key principles:
Token Ownership: Every token has an owner.
Attachable Logic & Data: Tokens can be extended with modules that define both code and additional data.
Open Publication & Reusability: Any developer can publish modules or plug-and-play existing modules to tokens, fostering true interoperability and accelerating dapp development.
A defining feature of Yours Protocol is its ability to attach metadata and programmable logic to tokens, transforming them from static assets into dynamic, evolving entities. Unlike traditional metadata stored on IPFS, which remains static, Yours Protocol enables continuous adaptability, ensuring tokens grow and change over time.
Built for flexibility, Yours Protocol follows a modular design. At its core, a token serves as the foundation, with pluggable modules adding functionality and utility. These modules can be modified or replaced, allowing tokens to evolve alongside applications. As technology advances, tokens should too, and Yours Protocol ensures they do.
4.2 External Tokens
While Yours Protocol enables the creation of native MegaYours tokens, many existing NFT collections and ERC20 tokens can also benefit from enhanced on-chain metadata and utility.
To bridge this gap, we provide a secure and decentralized solution that preserves token ownership on external blockchains (e.g., Ethereum, Solana, Polygon) while integrating metadata and on-chain functionality within MegaYours.
With this approach, any transfer or delegation updates the ownership status on MegaYours in a decentralized and secure manner. The new owner gains access to enhanced on-chain utility, seamlessly integrating with dApps in our ecosystem.
The bridge facilitating these external tokens operates as a sidechain, subscribing to events on external blockchains. It emits corresponding events on MegaYours, enabling dApps to selectively integrate tokens based on their specific use cases, ensuring flexibility and interoperability.
4.3 Examples Modules
In the future, there will be a module for everything. Each module is made of a set of decentralized functions that describe the specific and custom behavior of the tokens they are attached to. Example modules include:
Secure Randomness: A shared, cryptographically secure module for randomization in gaming or lotteries.
Avatar Customization: A module defining slots (e.g., hats, shoes) for on-chain characters, allowing cross-platform consistency.
Crafting Systems: Modules for turning resource tokens in a game (e.g., wood) into new items (e.g., a table).
DeFi Components: AMMs, liquidity pools, or staking modules that any token can plug into.
Like installing a library from NPM, developers can “install” a module on-chain, with immediate access to both the logic and state. This fosters rapid innovation while preserving the benefits of public, trustless infrastructure.
