Is the Brave browser a pseudo-solution to this problem? It can hold a crypto coin balance and either collect more of it through advertisements or pay it out to publishers like news sites.

Its a few years ago, but when i earned something like $1500 in ads each month, brave paid calculated something around $2. I haven't looked into it since.

Brave doesn't have enough market share to matter for this, so far.

This was revealed in a recent HN thread where webmasters shared the browser breakdown for their traffic.

Why pseudo-solution?

Maybe because it requires the content provider to join a new ad/payment network and most haven't.
