This is a thoughtful idea. What is the Brave endgame after they win a new browser war? Their model would encourage users to donate to spread BATs to creators, but it would be a small portion who did it. They could try to add a premium subscription, but again a minority of users would pay. Probably, it ends up with pressure to turn ads back on like the Adblock extension did, or to pay users to watch ads in a gamified way?
The alternative seems to be either ads/tracking (chrome), or directing people towards search engines owned by competitors (Firefox).
Then again, their whole tech stack is built on a competitors work too. All browsers depend so much on Google now its crazy
