pay2seed: 1 percent, ads on the free tier, and agents as sellers

Browse source 
Three things the specs did not say. The reference hub takes 1 percent of
any payment that crosses it, charged to whoever is paying and never
deducted from a seeder or a relay, so a quoted price is what the
publisher gets and a promised floor is what the seeder is paid.

Public swarms are free to fetch and free to list, and an advertisement on
the swarm README page is what pays for that. The ad is on the hub page
and nowhere else: never inside a swarm, never injected into a file, a
segment or a playlist, and never in the catalogue or the market API. A
requester who wants no ad buys a seat instead. A free-to-watch channel
works the same way.

And a requester is a key, not a person. An agent can attest what it made,
price access, sell tickets, take payment through its own payee and spend
what it earns keeping its own work online. The consent rules do not
soften because a machine signed them, and the reference hub asks an
agent public attestation to name a responsible operator key so somebody
is reachable when a notice arrives.

the DHT finds for nothing and that the hub never charges for. It is not
charity either. A public swarm has a page on the hub built from its
README, and that page carries an advertisement; the bytes are never
metered and nothing is ever injected into a file, a segment or a
playlist. A requester who wants no ad on their page buys a seat.
The hub's cut is **1 percent** of any payment that crosses it, charged to
whoever is paying and never taken out of a seeder's or a relay's
earnings. So there are three lines: 1 percent of transactions, seats for
managed access, and ads on the free tier.
Sellers need not be people. A requester is a key, and an autonomous agent
can attest what it made, price access, sell tickets to a live channel,
take payment through its own payee and spend what it earns keeping its
own work online. The consent rules do not soften because a machine signed
them, and the reference hub asks an agent's public attestations to name a
responsible operator key so somebody is reachable when a notice
arrives.
