Session: Empowering User Generated Content in Digital Economies
summary
Tilia is a B2B payments stack spun out of Linden Lab that reduces the $300–$500 payout threshold by handling licensing, KYC and settlement so publishers can offer real-time fiat payouts for sub-$5 digital goods (common $0.25–$1.50 items). It stores tokenized value inside closed loops, does KYC on cash‑out, and supports branded coins and publisher‑wide unified tokens (examples: Second Life, Upland integrations; more publisher launches coming). Operates under US licenses today and is pursuing UK/EU approvals.
