There is just too much wrong with this statement. Look at the motivations behind adblock usage. Then you go on to say that the users receive a token thats only use is to give away for free? You can donate BAT, or you can cash out after several months. There might also be the option of paying for premium content through BAT SDK's.

Nobody wants that free slurpie on July 11th because they have to drive to the nearest 7/11 right? Nobody wants that free donut at krispy kreme. Nobody will ever use giftcards, and these loyalty points at your gas station or frequent visitor card at your barber. These are all things that are apparently worthless to you by the same logic. There is research and trillions of dollars refuting you, so your argument is pretty damn weak.

As for the economics of the BAT token? Just lol. Scott Locklin is in charge of the economics research. He has a Phd in physics and built quantitative finance software. Your credential probably include being a broke crypto neet and judging by your posts you're also an insufferable bitcoin maximalist.

Yes the token was used for funding, but its also used for transacting. Which one is it? I have seen plenty of people say the token could be used on a centralized database while also crying about using bitcoin instead or crying about it being a funding token. Either way all I have seen was blind tribalism that is so autistic normies will never want to touch your neetcoins because all the autism scares them away.
