Comment by xlayn | original | Monetization Gateway: Charge for any resource behind Cloudflare via x402

X402... I was not aware, I had this idea of making HTTP connection depend on a monero transaction, the monero transaction should take around 3 secs of the average computer/cellphone... once you have paid that you can access the resource. You wanna crawl the whole internet non stop, you pay non stop, 3 secs is probably the same as we pay in ads for those without adblockers and then content generators can start getting paid for the resources they generate.

It's stablecoins not Monero.

Monero target block interval is 2 minutes. You have to wait for 2-3 blocks because Monero does regularly have reorgs.
