is there a list any where of these kind of internet novelty&#x27;s and the speculation on their income?<p>i think it would be really interesting to see how often these come up and if there is an ideal interval between these to grab maximum attention&#x2F;profit.<p>like <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;milliondollarhomepage.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;milliondollarhomepage.com&#x2F;</a> twitch plays pokemon etc..

View source tells me this uses Stripe. Stripe charges 2.9% + 30c, which leaves the owner with 66c, basically just 2&#x2F;3rds. Pretty heavy.

I am really really curious to pay 99 cents, if there was a way to pay without giving my credit card information.<p>Who paid 99 cents 2.0 supports paypal or something.

Should use lightning network for payments. No scammy credit card network fees.
