Brave Browser are doing this, and have integrated support for a cryptocurrency called Basic Attention Token.

Personally I found their browser to be a bit too buggy on iOS though, so on my iPhone I’ve stuck with Safari (Firefox for iOS is buggy too).

On my laptops and desktops I am sticking with Firefox because last I checked Brave was either unavailable or didn’t work well enough on FreeBSD.

Nonetheless I commend Brave for doing what they do :)
