I think the best "Bitcoin Micro Transaction" is a web wallet called XAPO.com, you can send as small as 1 SAT and there are no fees. But if you are looking for something "Self hosted" then the other options that people suggested would be best.

Just writing some code
The best would be to use bitcoind over RPC. You can also use Electrum over RPC

BitcoinJ is fully functional but it only works with using it as part of a program.

Awesome! if I could just use bitcoind rcp that would be amazing! Smiley

Can you refer me some resource to look at to get started using bitcoind for micro transactions ?

Cheers,

Check out the RPC calls at https://bitcoin.org/en/developer-reference#rpcs. What you want is probably the sendmany command.

I want to explore, learn and use Bitcoin micro transactions

So far I came across these videos:
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6DYISEPvzPtoJ1clwNtWyg/videos?sort=dd&shelf_id=0&view=0

What other projects have used for bitcoin micro transactions ?

Is BitcoinJ still experimental? Is it secure enough to build service using it ?

What alternatives there are other than BitcoinJ to make bitcoin micro transaction service ?

Is there any library which I can try and learn to use?

What's the most recommended micro transaction library out there to use for bitcoin ?

I don't own 21Inc computer, so that's not an option for me. I know their library is yet to go open source, but I want to learn something today, and just trying to get help to where to start from.

Thanks,
Satinder
