Didn't know where to post this, so hopefully this is the right spot. Please boycott Brave. I've recently learned that not only is their CEO bad, but their fanbase is toxic, too. I will no longer be using Brave for that reason.

Yes. It would need to be trustworthy, have a good reputation (so not brave).

If it uses bitcoin, then the money can be traced directly. If set up right, there would be no way to scam people without them noticing immediately.

This could be a very good business idea. To make it profitable, just do yourself what you are doing for websites: "you've been using the fuckyoupayme app for 12 months and supported websites with 200euro so far. Please donate us devs 24euro."
