Hey, so yeah, I agree that we should apply a brief description of what a Web Monetization provider can unlock when they click the Start button. In that case, it will give them an idea of what they can unlock. Thank you for the feedback!

However, we want to welcome everybody especially those people who aren't a web monetization provider to see our project. We don't want to hide this graph because awareness is important. But since reading those News that we displayed from WHO is a reason to stay for a long time, then we find it reasonable for Web Monetization provider to activate the Start button.

@itshally — A provider (Coil) doesn't decide to stop/start the stream. The content/site owner decides this by quickly checking and detecting if Web Monetization has started. This should/could be instant if true, rather than making the end user click start. See Start/Stop example.

Nice update, folks. That bit is now working smoothly and I was aurtomatically streaming when I visited the site.

Some messaging when not a member would like be a good next update candidate (I visited on a browser that I don't have the extension installed).

We just realized the mistake that was going on our project after your feedback, that's why I want to say thank you for enlightening us as well 😄

No 'mistakes' or right or wrong, @itshally @krishnadevz. I'm glad that you're experimenting with different techniques. This is all so new — so kudos to you both for taking the plunge.
