Streaming involves the continuous movement of money (tokens) from the sender’s account to the recipient’s account, occurring per second. The payment sum is temporarily withheld in the sender’s account, assuring the recipient of payment. Throughout the streaming process, the sender consents to a specific amount being debited from their account every second, consequently augmenting the recipient’s account balance.
The stream persists until either participant opts to terminate it or the sender’s balance hits zero. The recipient can either withdraw a portion of the received funds at any time or await the stream’s conclusion — the funds will be automatically credited to their account. Stream settings can be customized to suit the preferences of the sender or recipient.
Think of it like streaming a movie on Netflix — but with funds! This is a secure, straightforward, and transparent payment system, devoid of third-party involvement.
Thus, streaming payment technology emerges as an autonomous and dependable system. It centers around you, your funds, and the recipient. You’re no longer reliant on political dynamics, banks, or even each other. Once a stream is initiated, both the sender and recipient are acutely aware that payments are in motion, verifiable in real-time.
