I’ve been doing brave rewards for maybe 16 months? Not sure exactly but my currect anticipated payout is 1.6 BAT for almost 600 ads served and I interact with some of my ads. This is on track to be the lowest ever, is that consistent with other peoples’ experience? Is this dying out?

    I wrote up something about this back in March, if you care to check it out at https://community.brave.com/t/psa-bat-ad-prices-explained-kind-of/479458/1

    TL:DR

    * Ad revenue for the world decreased significantly, with some companies seeing it drop as much as 50%.

    * Crypto scare from FTX, Genesis, Binance, etc has impacted world of crypto, which slowed ads and interest a bit.

    * All in all though, BAT earnings haven’t changed as much as we think. I can show earnings back in 2020 where I was getting 1-6 BAT each month, which is what I’m still getting now. It just feels worse because BAT was worth up to $1+ whereas now it’s only like $0.22.

    * And yes, there was a small portion of 2022 where earnings was incredibly high. Brave did awesome and we were getting up to 20-30 BAT per month. But this was short and not usual.

      thats not it though. you can review all of your BAT payouts by going to brave://rewards-internals/ and when i do, they have gone from 10-15+ to… 1 and this is with prices relatively static since the price dropped.
