The net has needed this since 1994 when the conversation began: a way to pay out tiny amounts (starting at one cent) for content, support, or recognition.

QuoteMicropayments are small transactions or payments usually of less than a dollar—and, in some cases, only a fraction of a cent—that are mainly made online. Micropayments are seen as a way to leverage the internet to facilitate the immediate distribution of digital rights, royalties, in-game purchases, online tipping, and even to coordinate devices connected via the internet of things (IoT).
