- rtisdale 7y agoA major idea behind the software is that you can automatically tip websites or creators that you frequently consume. These amounts are pretty small. If PayPal or credit card were used (without prefunding things) you'd have most of that money eaten up by transaction costs. As others have mentioned, this does seem to be a "real" use for crypto currency to achieve microtransactions.
