So I think what really has to happen right now is there needs to be some example, code developed.

Summary

Apps are slow on ActivityPub comments. Dave says that's not the spec's fault: the protocol is intimidating at first, like Lightning, and developers wait for someone else to go first. Streaming payments only took off once LNPay offered a simple API. What's needed now is example code, even a mock app showing the simplest way to support it.

    the streaming payments didn't begin to get any traction with the apps until LNP came along and made it a very simple write. API, very simple process.
