I spent the last two weeks or so building an MCP Monetization economy for Bitcoin entrepreneurs.
Tollbooth DPYC™ — pre-funded Lightning micropayments for MCP servers. AI agents and patrons buy tranches with a single BTCPay invoice and spend them across tool calls with zero per-request friction. No negotiation. No subscription. No credit card. No KYC.
The principle: Don't Pester Your Customer™.
11 repos live at github.com/lonniev — middleware, authority service, governance, sample server, pricing studio, and more.
Built on BTCPay + Lightning + Nostr identity. Every operator and patron is an npub.
Lightning-fast out-of-band tranches of credits used for low-latency hot-path payments on a per-tool basis.
A sound economy based on sound money and Nostr bidirectional security.
Looking for collaborators, early operators, and feedback from the community.

Introducing the DPYC Honor Chain — a new kind of API economy built on Bitcoin, Lightning, and mutual respect.
DPYC = Don't Pester Your Customer.
No KYC. No stablecoins. No per-request payment walls. Just pre-funded satoshi balances and cryptographic trust.
The Honor Chain is a voluntary community of Tollbooth Operators and Authorities who agree to:
⚡ Use BTC and Lightning for all commerce
🔒 Never save customer PII
🤝 Honor their upstream Authority's tax rate
⚖️ Accept community governance
Identity = Nostr npubs
Registry = GitHub (git is already a blockchain)
Payments = Lightning via BTCPay Server
APIs = MCP (Model Context Protocol) for AI agents
Today the trust chain went live end-to-end: Authority signed a JWT certificate, Operator verified it cryptographically, BTCPay created the Lightning invoice for the certified amount. No humans in the loop. No passwords. No cookies.
This is what sovereign API commerce looks like.
