Tap the Brave Rewards panel and enable Rewards
Open a few NTP > Observe that NTP SI is not shown anymore

Actual result

Observed that NTP SI is not shown anymore after Rewards is enabled.

Check the attached video. After I enabled Rewards, NTP-SI was shown once, and then never appeared again, and
the same background image starts showing twice.

Verified on Pixel 7 using version(s):

Device/OS: Pixel 7 [panther_beta-user 14 U1B2.230922.010 release-keys]
Brave build: 1.60.109
Chromium: 119.0.6045.59 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Based on a comment from @tmancey:

If a user has joined Brave Rewards NTP-SI are frequency capped so another does not appear for at least 5 minutes.

This is only the case on desktop/Android at this time.

This is not related to the user-activity score, this is just a minimum wait time before the next NTP-SI will be shown when users are rewarded.

I verified the same behavior and observed that after Rewards is enabled, and NTP SI is shown, another NTP SI is seen after ~5 min.
