Hi! This is a proof of concept for easy-unlock one-time paywalls for online content. For $0.01 (paid in bitcoin), you can unlock this recipe — just scroll down and instantly clear the payment with your lightning wallet. If you don’t have a lightning wallet and just want to see the UX, here’s a video:
This works using free and open source software:
- Lightning Publisher (for creating the WordPress paywall)
- BTCPayServer (for accepting payment)
- bluewallet (but any well-connected lightning wallet should work).
If you have any feedback — especially if you’re an independent writer or media publication looking to add something like this on your site — please let me know! You can find me on twitter @MishaGuttentag. You can also read more about my work and my thoughts on digital cash technology here.
Anyway…onto the eggs!
