Thanks for the detailed payout update! It’s helpful to know that processing can take several days and why payout amounts might vary due to unreconciled ads.

For the issue @sikgabs mentioned about random ads and downloads, it might be worth checking your filters and ensuring there are no conflicts with third-party extensions. Updating to the latest Brave version often helps resolve bugs like this, especially when using aggressive ad-blocking. If the issue persists, reporting it through the Brave GitHub with logs might be a good step.

Appreciate the transparency and guidance from the Brave team!
