This is super insightful. How is a user's attention market value determined, and should they be paid when choosing to direct it at something?

The basic 'price per square foot' of media is CPM (cost per mille), which is the cost per thousand ad impressions. Whether or not the media is sold that way, the effective CPM (eCPM) is (roughly): eCPM = clickthrough rate * conversion rate * lifetime_value (or value of action generated)

The problem with 'let users monetize their data' is that data isn't this disembodied fungible commodity (like oil) that has a clear third-party market value. Also, even if you did package that data for sale, it likely wouldn't fetch a very high price outside of its original context (i.e. the app that generated it).

Nikita's point is that essentially no consumer app of any real scale has turned into a 'data play' where raw selling of user data is the business model. One either charges for content, or uses ads, which monetize via a combination of the app's data and the advertiser's data (the latter being often overlooked).
