I definitely think paying to consume content without a damn pay wall would be awesome people load up their wallet and as they read its just seamlessly streaming sats to the publication
I would also like to see subscription services for APIs, if I wanted to get data from let's say Twitter or LinkedIn, I just want to pay for the data I request.
Pay-per-use SaaS subscriptions would be awesome. I see quite the case here.
Difficult to commercialize though, as it goes against most SaaS T&Cs.

We enable publications to add this with no-code at Mash (mash.com) – and a bunch more related for engaging users coming live shortly. Happy to get time to share a demo, learn what features you would properly care if you're curious. Helps us build the right things the more we hear from folks.

How much would you pay and how would you like to pay it? X sats for Y calls? Another scheme?

I think you could do both and incentivize group call buys, setting X sets per call and then lets say 10 000 calls you reduce the per API cost, so you don't push away anyone but incentives are there for bigger projects to scale
Obviously, the service provider would need to work out the cost based on their servers and stuff.
Like for me i use Supermetrics a lot for my clients and the pricing structure is so rigid it makes reporting so expensive, and I think costs can really be driven down with Bitcoin
