Micropayments have already taken off. They're extensively used in Steam (loot boxes, even c2c sales) and on Reddit. Implementations are simple and straightforward: pay someone who keeps your credit a larger amount and spend fractions of it with 1-2 clicks whenever you want. The confusion stems from the fact that people want to sell uninteresting stuff (and items of unknown quality, the "cat in the sack" as we say in German) on the Web and wrongly blame microtransactions.
