I am thinking about something called #TapeAPI.
If DeWEB enables decentralized websites and TapeSend facilitates communication between people, then TapeAPI could allow websites to interact with one another without relying on a central server.
You can think of TapeAPI like this:
Today, most websites need to connect to a server/backend owned by a company to get data or perform certain functions.
For example:
Website → Server → Get BEM price
Website → Server → Process AI
Website → Server → Store game data
The idea behind TapeAPI is to turn these services into services with their own addresses on TapeOut.
For example:
price.tape → provides price data
ai.tape → provides AI services
game.tape → handles game data
payment.tape → handles payments
A DeWEB website could simply call whichever service it needs.
A simple example
Imagine you build a game on DeWEB.
Your game needs a translation feature.
Instead of building your own server:
Game → Your Server → Translation API
it could be:
Game → TapeAPI → Translation
The API provider could receive BEM as payment, while users only pay when they actually use the service.
This could create a decentralized marketplace for services:
Developer A builds an AI service
Developer B builds translation
Developer C provides data
Developer D provides payments
Other applications can use these services without having to build everything from scratch.
What I find interesting is:
DeWEB = Websites
TapeSend = Communication
TapeAPI = Services
Together, they could become another piece of the infrastructure for a decentralized Internet.
This is just an idea I’m proposing
