I'm still skeptical how that could reasonably work on an opt-in basis.

Being annoyed daily by ads in exchange for some obscure crypto currency which might be worth something in the far future doesn't seem like a proposal to me that could convince a lot of people.

So I wonder, how many Brave users actually do opt-in? More than five?

Plenty of users in /r/BATProject fighting to get their $2/month earnings into their bank accounts. Average person thinks passive income, $5 or $10, is pretty cool. It buys a coffee or tea.

I think it's 8M+ users that have opted into ads. I could be wrong though.

Over 17%, right now. It's been as high as 20%.
