My take is that you have used it for almost 3 years and got $24. And that's not by using the browser (i am using the browser too), but watching the ads. Is it really worth your time? Time is one of the few things in life that you can't get back so it's one of the most valuable things you got. For someone like me who has trouble managing it, i sure as hell won't be giving i a way for cheap as that.
Bat might rise in the bull market but so can literally every died token out there. I seriously haven't seen any good reason for BAT to exist, nor i see any value in it to anyone.
People clicking the ads are poor and they aren't the target audience of marketers so everyone gets scammed here.
Different from viewing ads at PTC and faucets websites, here we don't have to watch the ads for 5-30 seconds. You just have to click to open it once the notification appears on the right bottom side of your screen, and you are already credited with BAT for the upcoming payment which is done every month.
So, it doesn't consume any time at all. It's simply extra income, although it's low. Maybe for tier 1 countries, where the target audience is concentrated, there are more ads available and the payrates are better. It would be nice to hear a feedback from someone living in such countries who also uses Brave.
(Most ads displaying here are about NEXO lending platform. While I'm writing this post, a NEXO ad notification has just appeared
).
