The US government (Fed?) could create a micropayment system for the US dollar with that charges little to nothing for transactions. This would allow another whole way of pay for things on the web. Have a browser wallet with a bit of cash in it and one can pay very small amounts for things on the web as one uses it. I would love this as a consumer and creator.
