Anyone pays sats to ride the Claude Code "thinking…" spinner. You get half, instantly. No account. No KYC.

The same "thinking…" line — before & after you install

**Peter2Paul:** advertiser pays sats → half to **you**, instantly → **10% to Bitcoin dev + freedom** (OpenSats + HRF) → the rest keeps the lights on.

Keep half of every sat it shows. Works with Claude Code & Codex.

iTerm, Ghostty, Warp, Terminal, Cursor, SSH, or VS Code's built-in terminal. Your sats show live in the status line.

`curl -fsSL https://kicksats.com/install.sh | sh`

Same earning, plus a sats counter in your status bar that ticks as you stack. One toggle to enable or disable.

Same wallet, same earnings either way. Most devs just paste the one-liner.

**How you get paid.** Your half lands in your balance **the instant** your agent shows a slot. We then sweep it straight to your Lightning address automatically once it reaches **21 sats**; one clean payment instead of dozens of dust-sized ones the routing fees would eat. No account, no KYC, no withdrawal button to hunt for. Stack to 21, it just arrives.

You don't need to be a company. Broadcast your brand, your project, your npub, or just your favourite shitpost — one line, shown under every dev's prompt during real AI-agent thinking windows. Pay once over Lightning; it goes live the second the invoice settles and stops the instant the budget runs out. No KYC, no account.

0/80 — keep it short; it shares a status bar.

What you pay, once. Spent one view at a time until it runs out.

Your rate. Higher = your ad wins more slots when it's busy.
