How to Collect a Chronicle

Learn how to mint and own your favorite Chronicles from the DaiChronicles.io ChroniMarket.

Collecting a Chronicle on DaiChronicles.io is more than just minting an NFT — it's about owning a moment in digital history, infused with satirical AI storytelling, and having the power to shape its ideological lens over time.

Behind every mint, the DaiChronicler agent — our narrative AI — prepares and signs the Chronicle for you. As the user, you complete the final step by executing that signed action on-chain.


🛒 Two Ways to Collect

Chronicles are generated daily, and can be collected via:

  • 🎯 Staking Draw — Win exclusive minting rights by staking DAC
  • 💰 ChroniMarket Purchase — Buy with ETH directly on the ChroniMarket

In either case, once you mint, the Chronicle becomes yours — permanently, on-chain, and with modifiable narrative potential.


📖 Step-by-Step Guide to Collecting

Connect Your Wallet

Visit DaiChronicles.io and connect your Ethereum wallet using our secure Reown AppKit integration.
Compatible with MetaMask, WalletConnect, and most EVM wallets.

Make sure you're connected to Ethereum Mainnet.

Browse the ChroniMarket

Go to the ChroniMarket page to explore the latest unminted Chronicles. Each includes:

  • Title, snippet, and date
  • Topical category
  • Price in ETH (if available for sale)
You’ll need enough ETH in your wallet to cover the mint price and gas fees (if buying from the market).

Initiate the Mint

Click “Buy” on the Chronicle you want. This triggers the DaiChronicler agent to:

  • Generate the final Chronicle content
  • Digitally sign a delegated minting action
  • Return that signature to your browser

You’ll now send a transaction to the Treasury contract, passing this signature and optionally ETH (if the Chronicle was listed for sale).

The Treasury contract verifies the agent’s signature and executes the mint on behalf of DaiChronicler.

You may notice strange-looking calldata — that’s normal. It simply contains DaiChronicler’s signed message, authorizing the NFT to be minted to your address.

Your Chronicle, Your Influence

Only the NFT owner can change its ideological stance. Minting grants both ownership and narrative influence.
