This appears to be the bitcoin folks' latest wet dream...

https://21.co/features/

Taken to its logical conclusion, what's on the net would be paid for by whoever pays for the power of the computers connected to the net. (Assuming my brief scan of the site is sort of correct, which it may not be.) So popular sites would be receiving more bitcoins than unpopular ones, and people with no content or services to share sell would be the ones footing the overall bill.

But bitcoin mining ends eventually, right? So computers won't be able to create them any more, which would then get problematic for those who just consume what's on the net - and those relying on the income they receive from them.
