Recently, I got introduced to BAT and Brave through Coinbase.
I watched a video and I earned a little bit of Basic Attention Coin for my account. The videos told me about Brave, a web browser that makes it so there are no ads and it’s also private so no one like a big corporation (like Google) or a government (like America, at least according to Edward Snowden) can spy on what you are consuming, buying or doing.
I thought this was “neat” to say the least so I downloaded it and started using it. It is said Brave adopts lots of things that the Chrome browser has and I was already using Chrome.
For performance I have only had one lag so far, which doesn’t bother me much because I can go back and forth between Chrome and Brave (not like I would know how to fix a lag anyway!).
Brave is pretty cool. It reminds me of medieval times and shields and knights! It is a lion’s head that also looks like the outline of a shield but probably it is just its red mane!
The best part of course is that you can earn BAT coin every time you click an ad Brave wants you to see. A lot of the ads are crypto related. Like did you know you can get a blockchain degree in Portland? WTF?
These BAT coins you earn can then be “tipped out” to creators like me who attach their websites to the network so if you want to tip goshdarnblog.com with BAT, go ahead!
To earn BAT coins go sign up with Coinbase or download the Brave Browser.
