Maybe this is true but it would be nice to have a technical solution in place that would facilitate a 5 cent payment so people could experiment with it. The US treasury of FED should do it at this point as it seems no one else will.

Not sure why this should be a US Treasury service given there's a well-developed financial system in the US that facilitates lots of other payment options. (And have you ever looked at the hilariously barely late 90s website of TreasuryDirect?) I'm also not sure I want the US government deciding which publications are proper participants in an official micropayments scheme.
