Hey. Jonathan. We are in the final stages of prototyping [1] and
finalizing the architecture implementation document for review. Once
approved, we can begin upstreaming the prototype components into the
Chromium browser, making it available for early testing.
Thanks!
Alexander.

Hey! I realized I mistakenly replied to Tom privately instead of
sending my response to the list. In my reply, I said that the
prototype is currently in active development, but we plan to move
to testing and seek broader public feedback by the end of this year.
I also hope to share the architecture document in the coming days,
which will provide more details about the project implementation
plans.
Thanks!
Alexander.

Is there anything you could share about the outcome of this
experimental prototype?
Thanks,

+1. I'm also supportive of prototyping this work. It's
obviously a really tricky space, and it's not at all clear
yet what would have to be true for us to ship a feature like
this in Chrome. But supporting content creators is so
important to Chromium's goals of a thriving web that I think
we should encourage and support experimentation here. 0.03%
of Chrome page loads already having the web monetization tag
(despite no mainstream browser support) seems like a very
positive sign to me, that's a huge amount of web browsing.

Specification
https://webmonetization.org/specification/
<https://webmonetization.org/specification/>
Summary
Implement the Web Monetization spec. Web
Monetization is a web technology that enables
website owners to receive micro payments from
users as they interact with their content. It
provides a way for content creators and website
owners to be compensated for their work without
relying solely on ads or subscriptions. Notably,
Web Monetization offers two unique features—small
payments and no user interaction—users are
paying/tipping for the content while they consume
it. It extends the HTML <link> element by
introducing rel="monetization". When this element
is incorporated into a web page, it signifies the
website's support for web monetization. If a user
has their wallet set up for a particular website,
their browser will automatically start a web
monetization session, enabling direct payments
from the user to the website.

Motivation
Web monetization offers a new revenue model for
content creators and website owners, allowing
them to earn from their work while users consume
their content. It also facilitates voluntary user
contributions, such as tips, directly rewarding
the creators for the value their content provides.

Web developers: a fraction of a percent of all
web pages have already been configured to use the
feature in anticipation of web/browser support,
according to metrics
<https://chromestatus.com/metrics/feature/timeline/popularity/3120>.
There used to be a different way to set up web
monetization on a web site by using HTML:meta
tag, which achieved 0.03% adoption
