CW-SVG

What are cwSVGs?

cwSVGs are on-chain SVGs with parameterized variables. Rather than storing a static image, the contract holds an SVG template with variable slots — colors, shapes, patterns, positions — that are generated on-chain during minting.

Each token receives a unique combination of these variables, derived from on-chain entropy at the time of mint. The result: every token renders a one-of-a-kind SVG, fully client-side, with no off-chain metadata or IPFS dependency.

Because the SVG template and all parameters live on-chain, the art is permanent and self-verifying. Any client can reconstruct the exact visual from the contract state alone.

Payment via Shitstraps

Collections may price mints in a specific denom (e.g. uterp). If your wallet holds a different asset, the mint flow can use a shitstrap — an automated swap path that converts your available tokens into the required denom at mint time.

When you connect your wallet, the payment section shows all available options:

• → Direct payment if you already hold the required denom
• → Shitstrap swap paths from other assets you hold
• → Insufficient balance warnings if no path covers the cost

The swap is executed as part of the mint transaction — you don't need to manually swap beforehand. Select your preferred payment method and confirm.

IBC-aware shitstraps: you can source slop from counterparty chains via IBC transfer memos (ADR-8 style callbacks) so mints complete without pre-swapping on Terp. Cap participation to remaining strap capacity (to_shit) to avoid lockout from over-sending past the cutoff.

Minting Process

• 1. Browse collections and select one
• 2. Set your quantity and review the total cost
• 3. Choose a payment method (direct or shitstrap)
• 4. Confirm the transaction preview and sign
• 5. Your unique SVG is generated on-chain — refresh to see it
