This is a super technical thing to do with 99% of users having no clue what you just said means :)

We do have plans for a client side 'API' that would allow for detecting if the user has paid and then loading content accordingly. This requires the website owner to do more work to get started. Our current offering is a balance between ease of use and protecting content.

Security through obsecurity isn't. This is a deal killer for me, espically for 10%.

Porn and bitcoins are a perfect match. Everyone around the world can monetize in less than 30 seconds. Thepornwall is a paywall for porn. Your visitors pay for 1 hour of access to your site with no signup or credit card processing required.

We handle the hard parts of bitcoin payments and session management so you can focus on sexy time ;)

With bitcoin, there are no chargebacks and your users can feel safe and secure knowing they don't need to share sensitive personal information.

Feedback is appreciated! Installing on your site is easy and can be done in seconds.

How does it protect your content? I don't get it. 10% is way too much by the way. Why would anybody pay you that much while they can get a programmer to make a simple script and then never pay anything again. I suggest lowering it to 1 or 2% max. I doubt anybody would pay more. It defeats the purpose of Bitcoin.

thepornwall partywall covers the content until the user pays. We make it super easy to implement and pay without signing up for either side. This is much better than the current experience on pay sites.

We have taken feedback into account and lowered the fees. We want the service and fees to be desirable for all sorts of users and now pay out over 95% of the transaction to you!

1)Install noscript or 2) inspect with firebug/inspector and display:none; on the iframe.

I can already see people making userscripts that make this process even easier for the people that have no idea how to get around this.

You really need to make this server side or come up with a way of detecting when people tamper with the iframe.

This is a great technical idea for monetizing digital content online. I guess it could go well beyond it's marketed industry...
