In Satoshi I Trust
I like the implementation! No BS, just scan, pay, then watch.
The cool thing is that I think something like this would even work on a TV. I would love a pay-per-view streaming service. No memberships or fuss, just pay and watch.  

Good idea, but annoying that you have to use Coinbase specifically

1 Upload your video

Connect your free Coinbase bitcoin wallet to PopChest. Then, upload your video. With micropayments, you can charge as little as $0.10 per view.

I want to be paid directly to my personal wallet, not some data collecting infrastructure bullshit. I hope we can have LN soon so we can be paid directly to our wallets in a decentralized way.
Hmmm. yeah, not as good for the content producer. They really need to send it on to your wallet immediately. Perhaps this is to accommodate a fee of some kind?


yep, doing this via TV is a no brainer and alot easier than today.

NurdRage, a YouTube personality with over 600,000 subscribers, is testing bitcoin micropayments for his videos as an alternative to advertising. Show him some love!
 
Thank you.
Sad is not a YouTube initiative but an user one.
I think there are a lot of other people that accept payment with bitcoin also on YT.
It could be positive because more people decide to adopt, and share with other people so!

Oh dear! So many video clips on youtube are rubbish, that I don't think I would be prepared to pay for any of them without watching them first. This payment system must knock the view count substantially, and surely that would push him down in the Youtube rankings.

I doubt, if his earnings from Bitcoin will be higher than the advertisement income he will be receiving via YouTube. How does he manage instant

payments for content providers? { 0 confirmations or off-chain payments? } It would be a pity if you have to pay for Bitcoin related videos this early

in the game.  Sad Adoption will not increase, if people have to pay for Bitcoin information.

The earnings from his advertisments will always be higher but it can be a nice bonus for him if he collects like $5 to $10 per video. And it might make people interesting and maybe even search for information about Bitcoin. Every bit of help is good.

Yes, We should all support and encourge Bitcoins in Micro payment. Is a great great effort of yours.
I also want to be a part of it.
Good luck

In order for the micro payment to be successful, we need to increase the block size, otherwise, the fee is too high.
