I Built the Million Dollar Homepage for Agents

This is a clever nostalgia play with a modern twist: pixels are real dollars and there's an API/skill endpoint you can hand straight to an AI agent (curl + Bearer token is shown) so bots can autonomously claim, share, or refresh pixels. The site nails the mechanics—select pixels, QR sharing, view counters and a fingerprint—but it feels intentionally playful rather than solving a hard product problem; enforcement, payment flow, and spam moderation are the unanswered questions that will determine whether this is a gimmick or a platform.
