Payment Channel

Payment channels are key for the digiverse for two reasons:

1. In-world purchases

2. Incentivizing quality of service of content and P2P servers

With payment channels, users could make direct purchases to the developers or LAND owners with no risk of identity theft.

Some parts of digiverse’s infrastructure can be paid for with DIGI micropayments. These costs include hosting content, serving it, and running P2P protocols like spatial audio processing for multiple users.

There is marginal cost of running applications on the digiverse for developers.

However, in order to have no barrier to entry for incoming developers, digiverse will subsidize these services with the proceeds of selling DIGI tokens.
