I’d like to propose support for the value-black to allow direct payment streaming. The podcast:value block gives podcasters a way to receive Bitcoin payments in real-time over the Lightning network using apps such as Breez.
Interesting. Know of any hosters that are already implementing this? I’m looking for existing UI. How does one enter bitcoin values normally (for the suggested value, I assume there’s a better input than simply a float of 0.00000015000? (I’m not versed in crypto-stuff). Also wondering about the split UI, especially on the episode level. Maybe giving roles weights (on-air contributors get a factor of 2 or something like that) makes more sense than raw input fields.
Sorry for not replying earlier, it seems I didn’t get any notification about your reply.
I only know about a podcast index that is using it currently. It uses a given RSS-feed and injects the additional code: PodcasterWallet.com in combination with Podcastindex.org. The forementioned Breez app queries the podcastindex.org to pupulate the player accordingly.
The specification for the value-block supports different cryptocurrencies, currently bitcoin/lightning and nano is mentioned. In case of bitcoin, 1 BTC denotes to 100.000.000 satoshis, so instead of using the BTC value on the UI, using satoshis might be more suitable. 100sat are currently ~0,04 EUR.
Regarding the split: I agree, altough it is a simple solution currently.
