How does Brave make money? My understanding is that their entire purpose is to block tracking and ads, but those ads is how a lot of places fund their services.
Brave get 30% of the revenue from those ads, and the users get 70% of the revenue as BAT tokens
Users can then use those BAT tokens to tip the websites they like that signed up as Brave publishers (see a list here: https://batgrowth.com/publishers)
