Isn't the Brave web browser based on this idea, using cryptocurrency?

Yeah, BAT was supposed to be exactly this, you'd mine it by browsing and tolerating non targeted ads from your browser and you'd pay it to content creators in lieu of tolerating their targeted ads.

It was a great idea, but I get the feeling that it stalled somewhere along the way.
