I'm on the latest version of the browser, and there's a "Payments" tab in Settings where you can add funds with BTC / ETH / BAT / LTC, set monthly budgets, and see what your percentage is. So I'm not sure where you saw that they discontinued that feature or sell ads.

I am guessing they will replace it by the following feature :

Support your favorite sites with Brave’s blockchain-based tokens called Basic Attention Tokens. (coming soon to mobile)

Yeah, they replaced the "Bitcoin proof-of-concept system" [0,1] with BAT for "blockchain-based digital advertising" [2].
