Agree but unless I don’t understand the concept of the blockchain, isn’t all of the activity and data available and immutable? My thought is to provide a gateway to pay for ads for those who opt-in to see them which will then be rewarded for their attention. The ads would be catered to the interest of those users so that it is not as disruptive.

I see what you mean - but that implies getting interested parties to invest in steem power first (so that their "upvotes" can entice people to have a look at their ads).
And that is precisely Steemit.com problem - focusing on the blockchain they were not very successful (to say the least) at bringing investors to the blockchain and making them power up in sufficient proportion as to at least keep the price of steem at a cool 0.35 mBTC for instance (while Steemit.com would power down and sell STEEM to pay salaries)
i really see this model of steemians being paid for their attention working well potentially. similar to how the brave browser works with BAT. i think this video is wonderful! thank you @louisthomas :) i'm a brave user and BAT investor. investor here as well...and i think it'll work great! we shall see. @exyle 's post today is excellent. https://steemit.com/exyle/@exyle/steemit-com-is-running-at-a-loss-start-generating-revenue-or-get-out-you-are-strangling-other-applications-from-succeeding
