The issue is far more likely the low volume transaction (of one user) which is itself likely to be a consequence of lack of demand/reason for this service so far.

No one is set up to explicitly monetize your data with consent. It doesn’t seem like a bad idea once society catches up with it.

There is no need for the monetization of data.

Monetizing users' attention is enough.

Look at the Brave model. People get paid for the ads, no personal data is exchanged.
