Viewers stream value to you continuously while they watch — metered and settled in real time by an autonomous payment agent. Instead of the occasional lump-sum tip, it's a tiny, honest trickle. You keep your Owncast instance. There's no platform to move to.
Lump-sum tipping asks every viewer to interrupt themselves, decide on a number, and feel something about it. Most never do. The math punishes everyone who's simply enjoying the stream.
Drop the LeptonStream overlay on your Owncast page — or share a support link. Your payee address is your own connected wallet. No account. No platform.
One signature. The real wallet delegates to a session key — autonomous, but unable to spend a cent past the ceiling the viewer chose.
It reads real playback health. Buffer, stall, or tab away — spending throttles. When playback recovers, it resumes. Deterministic code. Never an LLM.
≈ $0.005 per batch via Circle Gateway. Gasless for the viewer. Verifiable on testnet.arcscan.app. Creator withdraws their Gateway balance to their wallet.
While someone watches, value flows to you by the second — tiny amounts, continuously, with a ceiling they set.
Payments settle directly to your own wallet address through Circle Gateway. No platform account, no cut, nobody crediting you from outside.
Move your balance back to your wallet whenever you like. Every payment is verifiable on Arc. Self-custody from end to end.
Your stream, your server, your audience — and your money, settling in real time to a wallet only you control.
Per-second metering, the throttle, and the ceiling are deterministic. There's no LLM anywhere in the spend loop, so there is nothing to jailbreak into overspending your money.
It becomes your payee address — self-custody, no account to create.
Add it to the Owncast stream you already run. Viewers support you by the second.
self-custody · your wallet, your keys
Everything you might be wondering about getting paid by the second.
No. LeptonStream is a layer on top of the Owncast instance you already run. You paste a snippet or share a support link. Your stream, your server, your audience.
