user41365: I'd like to build a service to allow users to send small amounts, e.g. equal to $0.5-$1 per transaction without having to pay enormous (in relation to the amount sent) fees.
I read that technically bitcoin allows to send 0.00001 BTC a a minimum amount and it's $0.44 currently. But the commission will be larger than the amount sent to it doesn't make sense.
So, are there other cryptocurrencies where I can send such small amounts and pay something that is more reasonable?

user98008: With lightning you can send 1 sat (or even less) and there is almost no fee.

user126793: Other chains might be off topic here, but Bitcoin offers you at least two options. You can choose one from three, the first two are Bitcoin:

Enhance your calm. Using minimum fees it'll take longer, but it might cost as few as ten cents.

Use the Lightning Network or some other second layer system or side chain.

Use an alternative cheaper chain.
