This could unironically be an OK use case for crypto and NFTs on a low energy usage blockchain?

Website asks you to pay a paltry sum, you get an nft that allows visiting for X days

NFT over cookie because then you can keep using the site on your other devices as long as they’re connectes to the wallet too, and you don’t need a user account for every site.

Not a perfect idea but not the worst?
