How It Works
Elacity is the Exchange for the Internet of Wealth. We provide infrastructure that transforms how digital assets are created, owned, and monetized.
Wealth Capsules
Wealth Capsules are sovereign business containers that turn raw human intelligence (Code, Media, Data) into yield-bearing financial instruments.
How It Works
- You create content: Data, code, media, or any digital asset
- We encrypt and store: Content is encrypted using WebAssembly (WASM) and stored on IPFS
- You define license terms: Access price, duration, revenue splits
- Smart contract deploys: On-chain enforcement of licensing and revenue distribution
- Revenue flows: Instant settlement to your wallet when accessed
Key Features
- Encrypted at rest: Content is mathematically invisible without an Access Token
- Sovereign: No central server required. Runs peer-to-peer.
- Programmable: Revenue splits executed instantly via smart contracts
- Non-custodial: Direct wallet-to-wallet transactions

- Revenue distributed: Returns flow back to token holders
Why Invest in Agents?
