lmao I thought I was in 2017 again
enjoy your dead coin

>>18704082
love brave but BAT is never going to be valuable ever.

>>18704082
BAT is a bluechip crypto. There's no need to shill it. Do you see people shilling coca cola? of course not.

>>18704120
>Ethereum and Ethereum affiliates partner with Brave
>Release utility on Brave

Thats literally all that has to happen for it to become astro fucking nomical. Im not in BAT whatsoever but lets be real. It can pop off.

>high market cap
>still worth pennies
>has a unique selling point

what bothers me is that idk how easily you can earn BAT just by using Brave. it will never be valuable if everyone is mining to some degree

>>18704120
I don't own BAT, but BAT and Brave might be the most legit project in crypto in my opinion.

>>18704082
>Here's a coin I don't see /biz/ mentioning very often.
lol.

About Brave: I haven't earned any BAT in my Brave browser in weeks.
No idea why, I didn't change any of my settings. I just stopped earning any BAT a few weeks back.
I tried turning off rewards for a day then turning it back on, that was about a week ago. Still 0.0 BAT expected for April.

have you installed an ad blocker recently?

>>18704221
For real lmao its a crazy idea and was well implemented. I can totally see BAT taking off. In some wierd cyberpunk universe.
*female robot voice*: "Thank you for your attention. Zero, point two fife basic attention tokens have been deposited in your MiChip. Thank you."

>>18704265
lol even in that scenario it still wouldnt be worth much
>>18704156
okay then youre better off investing in the platform...the successful erc20s would be spending gas which would drive up the price of eth

>>18704263
Thanks for responding.
No I did not, but I'll look at what other security settings I might have enabled.

Patiently waiting for the BAT thot poster

BAT is the next big crypto hiding in plain sight. Brave has 14m users, near full circulation, and BAT held on exchanges is the lowest it has ever been.

Brave is trying to build a global ad platform, and is growing at over 10% month over month. That is the type of growth you double down on rather than ignoring. Publisher ads, state level ads, the sku and self service platform are very close. Couple that with expanded utility like 3rd party apps or VPN services etc and you have one of the biggest web 3 giants.

>>18704381
Goddamnit fine. I'll sell some bitty at 8500 and get a bag

>>18704381
Forgot to mention that it's one of the few coins listed on major exchanges and defi protocols. The fundamentals have only gotten stronger while the price has stayed the same. When it pops it's going to compound.

>>18704221
There are a number of legit projects, but BAT is the one that is seeing front end adoption.

>>18704381
Nothing in the second paragraph is going to make bat moon if the first paragraph wasn’t enough already. This is a fundraising token given away en mass for free even after the ico. It’s never going up.

>>18704432
This is idex shitcoin tier shilling. A project this size needing to hire pajeets to pump it tells you all you need to know about it.

>>18704189
I make like 30-40 BAT per month, I'm sure some people could make significantly more but probably not more than double that, assuming they're not gaming the system somehow. I doubt the typical person (in a broader sense than crypto-enthusiasts and general internet dwellers) would make more than me. I don't know if there's any plan to reduce the rewards (currently 0.05 BAT/ad) if the price were to increase to an exponential level like a dollar or more.

>>18704224
using a vpn by any chance?

>>18704862
Nobody is speculating on the token price so it's not going up like other tokens. The difference between BAT and other tokens is that it has to be purchased, and those speculative tokens are going to one day have to provide a product with users or they will dump to zero after funds run out.

>>18704224
Go in your localappdata folder and check when the bundle_state file has been updated. If it hasn't been updated in a log time delete it (I'd u want just rename it). Make sure your browser is closed when u do this. Reopen it, go on google.com , update the catalog again, and u should get ads again.
Also bBAT is the biggest shitcoin out there.
T. hacked ur mon

I am unironically in BAT, I have about 9,176. I'm trying to trade BAT/ETH and it's been hit or miss, once I think it's going to take off it doesn't.

What gives me hope is seeing how it usually holds historical supports and how it pops off every now and then.

From a fundamentals point of view Brave is going to be a very popular browser one day. two of my friends already use it and I never even mentioned it to them. But not quite sure how the economics of it will do, it's kind of made to buy and spend. Idk how many hodlers there will be

>>18704189
>>18704862
The amount of BAT you make just by using it and viewing ads isn't enough to keep the value of the coin itself down. It's just a cool little feature.

I'm optimistic on getting a bag now because as >>18705112 said, if you look at the history of the price of BAT, now presents a valuable opportunity to get some at a good price. It is going up form here, even if it doesn't moon. I'm not talking make-it-level gains here, but a nice little chunk.

>>18705112
Theres a fixed supply and in theory advertisers should be buying more and more and users will thin the supply out more and more.

If brave hits 25m users by the end of the year there will only be enough BAT for each person to hold less than 60. I have like 10x that in just my browser wallets.

This is just assuming people are earning from browser rewards. The sku is coming soon which functions as a payment system. A $5 monthly paywall immediately eats up like 30 BAT

Why does this need to be a cryptocurrency niggle me this

>>18704082
Brave browser is awesome, no longer using Chrome, all Brave all day baby .
And it's cool we're getting BAT tokens for "watching" ads but i seriously doubt anyone is clicking and watching these ads.
Just don't see how advertisers would be OK with this setup.
I think what's needed is for advertisers to give people discounts for buying with BAT that would entice people to watch the ads and even to buy the products/services.

>>18705416
easy adoption in a crypto-currency filled time? If it wasn't a crypto what would it be, how would it work? If it was just brave's own token type thing they would have to handle all the transactions themselves as well.

>>18705447
>I think what's needed is for advertisers to give people discounts for buying with BAT that would entice people to watch the ads and even to buy the products/services.

Hey, that's actually a really good idea.

>>18705416
BAT is working on becoming a web standard. Brave software would be able to license their advertising system and other software out without the third party being able to hack the tokens or use counterfeit software. BAT would make a lot of tokens and businesses obsolete and it's getting closer and closer.

>>18704317
Hi, Lad.

>>18704898
>A project this size needing to hire pajeets
Where are the Pajeets?

>>18704224
Are you using a VPN? Are you getting other pop up notifications from other programs still?

A project this size needs a penis to match

i use brave and 4chanx and the option to hover over a thread in the catalog to expand and show posts gets unchecked every time i open a new tab. it's pretty annoying.

BAT is great if you're trying to support websites that lack access to normal payment processing

i like brave, but i would never use BAT

>>18704381

dont forget winklevoss just tweeted it the other day and about to be listed on Gemeni

>only 1 ad for this month
how in the hell am i supposed to get ads

>>18705447
Lobby the people behind brave with this brah

>>18704082
Been holding a bag of BAT for years.

It's a fun token because the team is constantly building, but it's also a terribly depressing investment that sometimes only seems to dump. Mixed feelings towards BAT. Hopefully people will realize it's basically the third best project in cryptocurrency one of these days.

>>18705673
How is that even possible I get one every few hours?

>>18705673
>>18704224
don't know what to tell you. I'm in the USA and I don't even have Brave Ads on the "maximum" amount; I have mine set to ~3 ads per hour on average and I've still gotten 275 ads this month.

>>18705813
>>18705743
wtf????????????

>>18705447
The advertisers run special discounts for brave users. Blockfi is one example. Some advertisers run ads just for exposure. I click on ads that interest me, and the other day there was one for planet oat oat milk. Heard oat milk mentioned a few times and I'm typically a whole milk drinker but decided to check the ad out anyways. Ended up buying some that week and it was pretty decent.

Those ads can be pretty effective at giving someone that last little push. Getting paid a couple cents for the ad subconsciously gives you slight brand loyalty as well.

>>18705754
>>18705813

>>18705813
i set mine to max and so far gotten 485 ads

>>18705833
wonder if it's possible for them to add some graphics to those ads

Anyone else had some ads slip through on YT and/or 4chan recently? That was happening to me for a couple days recently. I've also been getting a lot of ads for Brave merch which is a little odd if you ask me.

>>18705871
There’s a few bugs with the latest desktop update I’ve noticed. Sometimes it blocks everything and other times, a few ads slip on YT, Twitch

>>18705871
I've read some people are getting YT ads, but I've never gotten YT or 4chan ads the entire time I've used the browser. I really wish they could block Twitch ads though, would be based as fuck

>>18704082
The only way to withdraw the BAY you earn in Brave is to give those scammers your ID, address and SSN. These kikes are collecting my browser history and match it to my identity.
No thanks. The ~$2/month I could earn from this isn't worth it. I'll leave this to pajeets who need it to feed their family.

>>18705856
>>18705813
wtf sites do you guys browse

>>18705936
>These kikes are collecting my browser history and match it to my identity

blatantly false. Read https://www.reddit.com/r/BATProject/comments/8rk7h8/how_will_advertisers_be_able_to_target_certain/
for more information; also the browser is open source so you could just check the code. But that's objectively not true. Brave is objectively not collecting your browser history and matching it to your identity. Google, on the other hand, objectively IS doing this and it has been proven time and time again, but good Goys ignore it and onions out over anything Google-related. Anyways, you're a dumb fuck so keep spreading your shitty easily-disproven lies

>>18705936
That's what Chrome is doing u retard. If u look at the code or install a proxy you'll find out it's the least intrusive normie browser out there (yes even gives u more privacy than Firefox). They don't send shit back to their servers other than that P3A shit u can easily block

>>18704082
If you're gonna get a bag of BAT, you might as well get a bag of OGN as well. OGN just partnered with Brave for a Brave swag store that is run on the Origin Platform. Pretty cool stuff, plus if you hold OGN you get a 20% discount on Amazon (if you agree to lock up a tiny portion of OGN for 120 days)

>>18705974
They can say that, but I used Brave for a month and then tried to withdraw the BAT coins. They asked for my driver licence and SSN. So much for privacy lol

>>18706007
That's Uphold KYC u dumb retard. Nothing to do with the browser

>>18706007
1) that would be Uphold asking for that information, not Brave;
2) Brave still isn't collecting your personal data in any way shape or form, especially not recording your browsing history; and
3) KYC is necessary in the United States for legally withdrawing cryptocurrency/"cashing out".

So yeah, Brave isn't going to allow illegal activity via the browser just so some retarded pajeets can cash out their $4.37 in BAT. Better luck next time

>>18706057
They actually are collecting personal info : https://brave.com/privacy-preserving-product-analytics-p3a/ . Install a proxy you'll see the calls made to the p3a server

>>18706020
>>18706057
Yes it has to do with the browser. How do I send BAT to my wallet without giving these kikes my IRL identity? There is no way. It doesn't matter if they create another company and call it something else, this whole project stinks.
> So yeah, Brave isn't going to allow illegal activity via the browser just so some retarded pajeets can cash out their $4.37 in BAT. Better luck next time
K. So I'll leave this browser/token to pajeets and bagholding morons who don't care about their privacy.

Do you need to take babbys first zk class? Sounds like you need babbys first zk class.

You are a visionary and you are worried about Tachyon getting benefits in the future and still maintain it's efficaciousness. Tachyon network allows different businesses to be built on its network only that Tachyon remains a secured means of data transportation.

That's what's false. Install a proxy and see for yourself

That's for AML purposes, go cry to the government

>Our work on P3A is split into two initial phases. In the first phase, we will use a simple protocol that sends a single answer to a single question, one at a time. In the second phase, we follow up with a more complex protocol that incorporates technologies such as oblivious shuffling and secure enclaves to support more complex questions while retaining the strict privacy goals of phase 1. Our objective is to keep it impossible for us to associate any particular data with any particular user, no matter how much analysis we perform on the data collected.

Plenty of us and its suffering, I'd have twice as much link if I haven't bought into this meme.

It will never moon, in the event that price exceeds 1 dollar they're issuing more BAT tokens

>>18706187
>That's for AML purposes, go cry to the government
Not trying to bash brave but that's totally irrelevant, if you can't be anonymous and also take the tokens for yourself it is a problem regardless of what's the cause of it

>>18706608
have fun dealing with CIA glow niggers bashing your front door in. Best case scenario is you get a cease and desist from the feds.

>>18706630
What are you babbling about?

>>18706608
You are still anonymous. It would be like taking a check to your bank and cashing it. The bank has no idea what you did for the money but they still need your bank info to legally give you the cash. Brave doesnt have your information, and the only information uphold has is what's legally required to do business.

Go ahead and close your accounts with every major bank and crypto exchanges you hypocrites.

>>18706766
What are you making this about me you imbecile? Try reading my post again and ask yourself what was the point I was making.

>>18706005
Ogn price prediction?

>>18705919
I got one out of nowhere a while back but hasn't happened since. Must've been a hiccup or maybe Google's fighting back.

>>18706926
You are arguing for a full anonymous system. The system is as fully anonymous as the legal system will allow. Brave/BAT was never meant to be an ancap Monero users wet dream. That is an extremely small subset of people and they will be brought to heel with bitcoin atms and local bitcoins honeypots.

Not sure what the issue is.

>>18706005
Seems interesting. Thanks anon, I'll check it out.
>>18706461
well hindsight is 20/20 so I can see why maybe when you bought BAT, LINK would have been a better option, but LINK looks like it might be close to a dump (although the LINKmarines would never admit it) whereas BAT looks like it's gearing up for a pump.

>>18704082

>>18707232
If you hesitate betwin both link and BAT then sure TA is telling you to by more BAT right now.
Thing is in one year brave made plenty of progress, yet BAT price didn't reflected any of it. So one has to wonder what could possibly happen the the price to rise significantly
I still think it's a good holding as far as speculating on funny internet money goes, but dont go all in on it

>>18707437
Ah yes, dont buy the asset that has fundamentally improved while the price stayed the same.

Buy the asset that has not fundamentally improved but increased exponentially in price.

>>18707557
That's not what I said.
My point is that considering the absence of price progress despite the progress of the app one has to wonder if the tokenomics of BAT are not simply shit.
A cryptobased product can be excellent, but if the economy of the token is not built to reflect adoption then you won't make any money out of it

>>18707696
What tokenomics? Just lol if you think this market isn't 1000% based on pure speculation. Nobody is using any of these tokens for anything. BAT could be the only token that is actually used by a clear mile.
