Lightning Network and the new opportunities for managing cashflow timescales with streaming money and salaries, incoming inventory, selling goods, just-in-time delivery, credit etc. Streaming money integration into media. Digital rights management (DRM). One of the first demonstrations was a video streaming service (https://streamium.io/​), which billed based on the number of minutes watched. Videos, educational courses, any time-based service can be transformed using this technology. The basic rule of DRM is that it doesn't work, because if my eyes can see it or my ears can hear it, so can a camera and microphone. It doesn't change piracy; it allows artists and content creators to connect directly with their audience rather than relying on centralised aggregation platforms.
