Now suppose your game runs in a WASM sandbox and re-run those scenarios. What do you gain from bounds checks? I'm not suggesting that shipping without bounds checks is wise or leads to a better product. However I do think with /s

You're passing on $50k-100k per month of ad revenue from just basic banner ads... at least based on how RPMs were a few years ago. I respect that, definitely not the decision I'd make.

I'd rather be sick for 2 weeks than wear a mask every day. Surveying those around me I'd say 98% came to the same conclusion.

That doesn't invalidate what I said, although maybe I should have said "flat" instead of "fixed" to be more precise. You pay a flat fee per transaction with Bitcoin, you pay a percentage fee with Mastercard and Visa
