FansOnly is a decentralized Social-Fi protocol on Mantle Network that restores digital sovereignty to creators and communities. It replaces centralized subscription platforms with immutable smart contracts, tiered access control, and decentralized storage.
Traditional creator platforms extract 20–30% in fees and enforce opaque content policies. FansOnly reduces platform fees to 5%, guarantees creator ownership, and enables direct peer-to-peer relationships between creators and fans.
Stack
Smart Contracts: Solidity, Foundry
Frontend: Next.js, Scaffold-ETH 2
Web3 Tooling: Wagmi, Viem, RainbowKit

Native MNT Economy
All payments occur in MNT with instant settlement and no withdrawal friction.
On-Chain Social Logic
Likes and comments follow the same subscription-based access rules as protected content.
Immutable Identity
Creator handles and profiles are permanently stored on-chain and censorship-resistant.
Content Management

FansOnly transforms the creator economy from platform-owned to protocol-owned:
Creators keep control, revenue, and identity.
Fans gain transparent access and direct relationships.
The platform becomes infrastructure, not an intermediary.
