Hey, great article with examples (this Proxy was particularly new to me but I see it quite useful here). I only now stumbled upon this webmonetisation API. I wonder, how user of it can control the max amount of money streamed? Through Coil? This reminds me of how Brave browser supports websites, but this is more for devs of packages

Glad you liked it! Currently the only provider a user can pay through is coil, by paying a flat amount of $5 per month and installing coil's browser extension. Coil then pays the sites visited $0.0001 per second. This rate can later decrease so that the max amount never increases $5. As different providers appear, they could have different monthly fee and payment rates, but for now only coil exists.
