The problem with Brave is that the success of the browser has no relationship to the price of the coin. It’s one on those projects with no thought put into the tokenomics. The only reason for a coin was to do an ICO. The browser would have been much better with an established coin like bitcoin ior ethereum.

How so? If the browser is successful, and it will be, it will create demand for the tokens. But you are forgetting that the Brave browser isnt needed for BAT to be successful.

BTC is slow and expensive to move, and ETH isn't intended to be a unit of exchange.

Better than that. Advertisers buying millions worth of Brave ads held in escrow that get converted to BAT when the ad is run. BAT will be the first crypto with actual value backing it. No more 'muh tethers'

BAT is the ultimate zoomer coin. they all want to be some e-celeb, thinking people will actually pay them for their shitty content. even if that were true, you're still getting paid in BAT. all you can do with that is pay to skip ads on other shitty content creators. one of the stupidest crypto projects out there, hands down. also this >>12075436

And pay for ad time shitforbrains. Pewds could buy commercial time without going through google which would save him and the publisher of the ad a ton of money. so then disney realizes that they're paying google way too much just to have some ad space on webpages and decides to switch to BAT to skip paying google completely. This is going to be huge considering they're going to be trying to sway people from Netflix to Disney+

It does the complete opposite of cutting out the middle man. It adds Brave as a new middle man without being invited, which is they are going to be sued into oblivion if it ever starts cutting into content creators’ revenue.

Why would they have any BAT? The amount you get when downloading the browser you can't cash out, and the BAT you get by watching ads is so negligible that it literally isn't worth your time to watch them, easier to just block them completely since your time is worth more than that.
