Hunter's comment
Nothing is free and web has been free on the cost of ads and selling of your private data. W are slowly getting the tools needed to get rid of this madness. Web Monetization is one of those open source tools.
Why?
The ability to transfer money has been a long-standing omission from the web platform. As a result, the web suffers from a flood of advertising and corrupt business models. Web Monetization provides an open, native, efficient, and automatic way to compensate creators, pay for API calls, and support crucial web infrastructure.
How?
Until recently, there hasn't been an open, neutral protocol for transferring money. Interledger provides a simple, ledger-agnostic, and currency-agnostic method for the transfer of small quantities of money. This opens up the possibility for streaming money, which makes Web Monetization possible for the first time.

One of the best trends in recent times is this attempt to move away from ads and into a simpler and more efficient time with proper aligned incentives. Brave is also doing many great things allowing users to auto-contribute earnings from their earnings from ads.
This is something I very much believe is the way of the future...

I've been looking forward for these changes for a long time. Ads were never going to be a good way forward. The incentive clash and user experience sucks.
Congratulations!
