Could you build this?

Partial While the Docker and crypto payment wrappers are accessible, orchestrating secure, multitenant, metered sandboxed VM/container infrastructure triggered by on-chain/USDC payments requires specialized cloud security and orchestration work.

What it would actually take: The system requires an automated crypto payment listener (monitoring Solana/Base/Ethereum smart contracts or USDC transfers) hooked into container orchestration (e.g., Firecracker microVMs or hardened Docker via gVisor). Building secure per-second metering, programmatic ephemeral network virtualization, and strict multi-tenant isolation against untrusted agent code requires experienced systems and security engineering.
