Yea. It's literally free money to shitpost and now BAT has freed itself from the eternal price resistance so you'll get paid more.

duh, you should have been doing this for a long time now
its a great browser anyway, just as fast as chrome without any of the horseshit

its an alright browser, been using it for a month and im sitting on three bucks now. might as well.

My friend told me it's a botnet

>>28442403
Wait what?

Explain to a smoothbrain

Yeah its great

There is one dude on /g/ who will freak out for a week straight if you try mentioning it there though. Thats more entertaining than watching BAT price.

>>28442403
Explain

>>28442403
You should use Brave regardless.

How much is it worth it to have your evey online activity tracked, recorded, analysed and stored forever?

>>28442403
Yes, it is worth it. Make sure to switch off automated tipping though. I discovered I was giving free BAT to Destiny while hate watching him on youtube.

>>28442403
Brave itself sounds fine, but doing it for the BAT sounds retarded.

>>28443107
It does not track anything, it pays you to voluntarily view an advert. You will get ZERO bat if you do not click on the adds

>>28443283
>It does not track anything

So, it just randomly shows an advert for any old product?
Absolute bullshit, and I haven't even visited their fucking website to know it.

>>28442593
probably a /g/ schizo
it's the best you'll get as a plug n play but fucking with about:config in firefox or ungoogled chromium is better for privacy

>>28442478
Lies. You will earn less BAT if the price raises.

>>28443380
Yeah, it does not force you to look at the advert though and even if you do click on the add you can exit it immediately and still earn BAT.

>>28442593
You should stop being friends with retards and Mozilla trannies.

>>28443283
>You will get ZERO bat if you do not click on the adds
You don't have to click or interact with the notification in any way to earn rewards. You can dismiss them .01 seconds after they pop up and you've earned the rewards for it.

>>28442403

For me, it's the BRAVE BROWSER®. The best internet browser. I even download the BRAVE BROWSER@ on my phone, tablet, laptop, and desktop because the BRAVE BROWSER® DEVELOPMENT TEAM is so friendly and more than willing to oblige.

One time I asked for 3 ads to be blocked and they blocked three. I said, "Wow, three for free!" and the nice friendly BRAVE® worker laughed and said, "I'm going to call you 3-for-free!".

Now the BRAVE BROWSER® greets me with "hey it's 3-for-free!" and ALWAYS blocks every ad, cookie, and tracker. It's such a fun and cool atmosphere with my BRAVE BROWSER®, I use it at least 7 times a week for my daily browsing needs which include work, pornography, school, and stalking my whore ex wife on facebook.

I even use my BRAVE BROWSER® to browse Read It®, it's amazing! What a great BRAVE BROWSER®.

>>28442403
It is literally Chrome, but with free coinerinos. Why not?

>>28443569
This shit is fucking malware

he's here guys, only took 15 mins from start of thread lol

>>28443654
see>>28443569

>>28443283
This is wrong, you get paid regardless of clicking or not

>>28443790
Stay poor then and use jewgle chrome you fucking retard

>>28443790
They have less than two dozen advertisers though so none of that shit matters. You get the same ten adds every day on repeat. They are just selling clicks basically and unless they get more advertisers BAT will fail

>>28443938
Not in my experience. I clicked every add the first month I had it and never clicked after that. I definitely did not get BAT the few weeks that I ignored the adds

>>28442403
I recently enabled brave rewards and have already gotten 1 dollar(not alot, but as a neet, it's nice to see)), whish I started using it when I first started using brave years ago, also wish I didn't abandon brave for firefox a couple years ago, swtiched back after the whole banning isn't enough article by firefox and wish I never switched to firefox and instead earned free money.

Brave is a great browser with or without the BAT. I have about $300 in BAT just from using Brave for a year or so. Judging from how many of you are playing with a few hundred dollars here trying to hit it big in crypto why not just use the fucking browser.?

>>28444062

Totally baseless statement get fucked.

You should have been using it this whole time. You wont have enough time to accumulate this much though so you will have to market buy a chunk.

90000 bat bros

>>28444155
You get the same amount of BAT earned if you ignore every ad notification or you click on every single one and advertised site for hours.

>>28443815

>>28442593
unless he gave you a nettop with ARIN registrations for the ip addresses he's a parroting retard who will only ever work help desk

>>28443466
It's free money either way you fucking retard

>>28444062
The US has 91 active ad campaigns alone. You get the same ads because you don't diversify your browsing enough to get new ad categories.

If you're doing nothing but shitposting on /biz/, fapping on the hub, and looking at exchanges all day, then you'll get the same several ads.

It's almost like you've been in this thread just spewing bullshit when you know fuck all about anything.

I think it is best to just buy it but I guess if the price keeps going up and you want to use their fucked up weird browser wallet or whatever the fuck it is then knock yourself out

>>28444757

>>28445162
It doesn't.

>>28442403
I mean its free money but it's not a lot, I got 4.6 BAT last month (like $2.70). if you're already using chrome I dont see a reason not to switch, it's actually faster than chrome in my experience.

How long does it take to create a fucking wallet? It says creating wallet but nothing ever happens.

>>28445728
What you mean?

This is just from a year, maybe a little longer.

Idk it's pretty nice, even if all it does it take $5 off my internet bill a month

Most of the retards don't realize BAT has a legitimate chance to upend the internet ad industry, which basically makes the internet (in its current form) fucking possible.

Looks at how much shitty tech stocks and crypto are valued at and think for your fucking self how potentially valuable BAT is.

I wouldn't really recommend it, I think it sounds better on paper than it is in reality

BAT has cost me so much. I split investments between BAT and Link. Anyone here have some old bat memes with the giant in the team pic?

>>28446150
I also held LINK and BAT when they were the same price... I am regret. But BAT has more actual potential than LINk ever did so...I sheepishly still believe

I was going to invest in BAT last week, but I put it into DENT instead.

>>28446412
Not even a cent.

>>28446644
Exactly, I'm still buying.

still using firefox, don't feel like contributing to the chromium monopoly

>>28442403
Using Brave in general is such a pleasant experience, I use it all the time (on mobile even exclusively). Though I never bothered with the BAT function, as I prefer no ads at all. I might start, though, as it's probably another way to support the dev team.

>>28446951
It just sends you notifications and you can limit how often it sends them per day.

The only good thing about Brave is that guy who funds organizations that protest against sodomites corrupting the religous ceremony of marriage.

I've never seen a BAT ad notification. I always just see ads when I open new tabs.

>>28448102
Maybe you have them disabled in the settings of Brave or your operating system.

>>28442403
Anyone ever noticed that the lion looks Asian?

>>28442403
Buy BAT

>>28447135
That was why I switched to BAT. I felt bad for him and was pissed at faggot firefox.

>>28450920
Got a 10k stack.
That's all I can manage right now.

>>28452363
you got suicide stack. you'll be happy when you got $400k fiat sitting in your wallet gl sir

>>28452806
Whoa. My mortgage might get payed off early then.

>>28443380
It shows a notification on the corner of the screen. The browser matches you to an ad on a list on the client side. Brave never gets your info.

I got over 100usd worth of bat by just using it for a year in phone and pc
(At the begin they sent some bats as gift i think)

No because you can’t actually withdraw them

>>28442403
Yes, its a crazy good browser as well lets you import your chrome bookmarks too
also free fucking money

>>28442403

I don't use browsers that track me.

>>28455896
Doesn’t track you. Retard fud.

>>28456114

Then why the hell does it use telemetry and still make requests the reward domains even if you choose to opt-out?

https://spyware.neocities.org/articles/brave.html

>But they delete your data soon after!

Yea like I trust them for a fucking second with that.

Ungoogled Chorium, Hardened Firefox, or Icecat are your options if you actually give a single shit about your opsec. I don't care if you use Brave to get BATs, but you're delusional if you think it's secure.

>>28456448
Okay retard. You are probably a homo.

>>28456448
>use telemetry
Do you even know what telemetry is? It is anonymous statistics on what features are currently being used. This allows the developers to get insight on what is actively being used.
>still make requests the reward domains even if you choose to opt-out
What is wrong with that? Are you afraid of wasting a tiny amount of bandwidth?

>>28457176

Anon the ideal amount of data I want to send to anyone about my habits is zero. Anything higher than that means you are not focused on privacy.

I don't care if you do it to make money. Just don't pretend Brave cares about your privacy, because it doesn't.

>>28455757
Yes you can.

>>28457475
Then disable it? Brave is transparent with what analytics that they collect. Here is the list: https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/wiki/P3A

Why the fuck am I not getting ads on my machine anymore but all my other machines do? This makes no sense!! THE TIME I WANT ADS I DON'T GET ANY!!

/g/ here, it works using a local neural network to target ads. You're tracked, but it's not uploaded. There are two other concerns with with Brave, but the ad system itself isn't one.

>>28461857
/g/ can suck a dick, I manage over 12000 endpoints and a WVD farm using Azure, Jamf, MEM and SCCM, and I say it's fucking malware.

>>28442403
my BAT wallet is now at $60. started around this time last year. You're not going to make money on it, but it's a nice little bit of pocket change for just occasionally clicking an ad

I'm going to write a bot that clicks on these ads all day just to drive this shitty fucking coin and shittier browser down.

>>28442403
I have >600 BAT strictly from browser use but I've been using it for a long time and I believe the rewards are somewhat less now. Of course like all things crypto, the "too late" mentality ends up costing peoples vast sums years down the line. Man I remember stopping mining ETH cause the pace was "bullshit" but in todays terms I'm a fucking moron for thinking that.

>>28443720
hmmm would it not be TM instead of R? lawanons wya?

>>28446301
Imagine thinking BAT is bigger than LINK, particularly in 2021. You still just don't get it.
Long time BAT fan here but luckily went all-in LINK after October 2018. Did cost me about 2k LINK though as split some fiat purchases.

>>28462767
Yeah some of those early rewards very nice. A long, long time ago now though.

>>28462873
You can use either after you've properly registered a trademark.

what are people's predictions on BAT? think it'll keep mooning?

>>28442403
heh no poorfag. paying me $20/mo in BAT to waste my precious time seeing ADVERTISING?

fuck off. my time is more valuable than that and (Yours) is too.
