Im sorry anon. I tried really hard to get it moving. I got at least a million tokens bought on my end. I tried to influence some of the direction the company took, but ultimately I fail you, because it’s hey refused to listen. It’s over and I feel awful for misleading so many people.

>>51363431
fuck you for shilling me this piece of shit. should have realized that everything in crypto is pretty much a scam

>>51364641
I personally felt confident in the project. I was using Brave for a couple years before I even bought any BAT. I thought, “finally a crypto project backed by a product I actually use everyday”. Didn’t realize the team was completely incompetent. I thought Brendan was the best and most accomplished CEO in all of crypto. I fucked up and I’m will to bet I end up paying a bigger consequence than you.

I bought 500 bat today. I just wanted to say it out loud, I don't know, it feels good. I use brave browser and and I get around 50 bats a month from a website and 2 small youtube channels I have. I don't know if I should have big expectations, but it feels good. Have a lovely weekend, my I say, my companions.

please by frends

I still think BAT has a lot of potential, but I'd probably be demoralized if I bought and actually invested money in it. I just have a tiny stack from rewards for using Brave.

>>51365902
Can I ask you how much bat you've been able to accumulate just by using brave browser and for how long you've been using it? Thanks, fren

>>51365984

It's not much, I use Brave on desktop and mobile and probably average about 10 BAT a month between most. So I've earned about $20 USD worth at current value in that time. But Brave is a nice browser and I'm earning it for shitposting I'd be doing anyway. And obviously hoping BAT will appreciate over time as well.

>>51366048

Been using it about 6 months

>>51365902
Same, when I saw them start banning people from being able to cash out/receive rewards that is when I became concerned.

>>51366081
Was there any reasoning behind the bans, or they compensating for breaking something? Seems like they’re trying to backtrack from a mistake they made with rewards from a while back or something.

Brave is so scared of getting fucked by the government that they refuse to do literally anything with BAT. the token is useless and dead due to this cowardice

>>51366276

I really feel like this is what's going on. They're just laying low and not trying to make waves until they know for sure whether the SEC is going to buttfuck them for unregistered securities or not.

>>51366422
they have auxillary mechanisms already in place. either shit or get off the pot, and if they get off the pot, just tell us that theyre building up the war chest of features until theres clear regulations on crypto. i might as well buy just XRP at this point

>>51363431
>>51364641
I point out obvious flaws, and all you people can do is reee about John Faggot. It's not that I dislike Brave even, Brave's browser & web-oriented products are great, but BAT has little use case and bad tokenomics.

>>51365902
Same here. I'm sitting on about 350 BAT that I've earned from ads. A nice little bit of pocket change for me, but I'd be seething if I actually paid for them (assuming I didn't buy when they were at their cheapest.)

You fags are bearish over nothing. Search growth is up nearly 20% this month. DDG pulls in over $100m in revenue a year. Stop your fucking blubbering.

>"the company doesnt have any direction"

Imagine falling for this shitty FUD. Search is much bigger than any other gay feature yall want by many multiples.

Go back to your Pedcord and Plebbit, you copium fueled bagholding niggerfaggot. Maybe play a round of Minecraft on your way soiboy

https://community.brave.com/t/get-rid-of-the-kyc-requirement-to-send-and-receive-bat/385582/7

Reading this, you really get the impression this is going places...

So straight up, do you get BAT or do you get vBAT which can only be handed to certain KYC wallets that let you actually get BAT? I know BAT is traded at enough places, you could just swap it for XMR if you wanted and then cash that out however you normally do that. But if there's a direct KYC requirement to even get the BAT token in your wallet, lol, lmao even.

>>51367700
>So straight up, do you get BAT or do you get vBAT

Brave has been very clear from the jump that you get vBAT unless you're KYC'd. vBAT is completely centralized and controlled by Brave

>>51367553
fell for lebait. Get filtered newfag

Let me translate that for you so you can understand

Back to your Minecraft server, turbonigger

Wow, one of you fags worked up the courage to talk to someone outside of 4chan and discord. Congrats.

>>51367700
Lmao all the exchanges. Lmao.

>>51368674
>I bought a lot of a crypto that I think has no use case or tokenomics.
I don't understand. Also him saying "BAT Tokens" indicates he's either lying or is just an ESL shitter; probably the latter.

>>51369104
A lot probably means 200.

Will this make us rich or not

you literally get the token for free watching tranny porn retard not everything has a value to others

>>51370050
No. Sell now and don't come back to these threads, they'll only put sweet lies in your head.

>>51363387
BAT is a huge piece of shit. It'll never moon.

>>51363387
thats what you get for listening to /biz anon.
sold a long time ago and bought MATIC as it seems BAT is going no where, MATIC on the other hand is stronger than ever.

on the plus side I did get like 40 BAT in august from rewards, breddy gud

>>51367783
>vBAT is completely centralized and controlled by Brave
Themis will fix that

>>51370667
I tick over 24 for me even though it was telling me that I was going to get around 5.9 for that month. I can't remember the last time that I didn't get at least double the amount of BAT that I was told that I would.

>>51371792
some of us actually bought this shit

>>51372003
So did I, but I sold a year ago. Better to settle for less, rather than fall for the sunk cost fallacy.

bros..... whens it gonna be our turn?

>>51373646
they should pull a bing/presearch and reward people for using the brave search engine (paid in BAT).

we need more uses for this shit. The monthly buy-ups for ads isnt enough

this shit is dead as a doornail

>>51375695
I mean yea but it’s not like they’re just gonna close up shop and give up that easy. There will be a point where they fight back for their position. I just don’t know if they slacked off all summer and have nothing to release or if it’ll even matter anymore with no budget left for marketing, or wtf is actually going on down there, because they’re so secretive about everything. For all I know they could release a whole suite of new feature tomorrow. There’s no certainty about anything. They’re all over the place

>>51371139
Lmfao remember Themis what happened to that

>>51375997
>remember Themis what happened to that

literally nothing

>>51375942
What are you talking about? They have been releasing news almost every single week. Are you expecting them to release big picture items every 3 months? These things take years. Look at any dead ICO shitcoin from 2017. Most of them havent released anything in 5 years. Same goes for these 2020 coins, almost no significant updates. You can look at braves github and see that its being actively developed every day. Theres tweaks to the UI, rewards system, news reader, wallet, etc etc all the time.

The bitching and moaning in these threads has gotten so bad lately. Imagine still bitching when the search engine is on track to potentially flipping DDG in less than 2 years. You are looking at some serious ad spend if search ads start to take off and both the search engine and browser grow.

thank u op for this informative post. i have tipped you 10 bat tokens. have a nice day!

>>51381390
speaking of which, there needs to be a way to tip 4chan posts

>>51364641
You should have realized that but you have a low IQ. It's not your fault you're a retard, retard.

>>51382011
i dont get why the chans isn't brave verified. it could easy get it some (free) funding. we could even double the jannies pay for how much they hang out in these threads.

>>51383194
>we could even double the jannies pay

interesting thought. Can anyone run the numbers on how much jannies would get paid if we could DOUBLE their salary? I'm just guessing, but I'd assume it would be quite a bit of money!

>>51383216
You’re never going to believe this…

>>51363387
It'll rally if brave actually started advertising again. otherwise it'll just stay stable.

>>51383229
Believe what?

>>51383236
4chan Jannies, as a matter of fact, do note receive pay at all. Zero dollars. Their salary for doing a job is literally nothing, none, $0.00, not a single penny. They literally work (presumably hours, if not days or weeks or even months) for free.

They do it FOR FREE.

>>51383264
I simply refuse to believe this. It can't be true.

>>51383264
>>51383236
>>51383229
>>51383216
>>51383295
wtf? why do they work so hard policing our threads for zero (ticker: 0) pay? isn't that a little bizzare?

>>51383264
>They do it FOR FREE.
4chan might not pay but they’re definitely getting paid from outside organizations. They could be crowdsourcing a fuckton of BAT if they would wake the fuck up and push our threads to the top.

>>51383318
>>51383295
Tens of thousands of mods on reddit do it for free. I created a few subreddit, one of then with over 500k subscribers and I check in on thr subreddits maybe once every few months. But I have mods under me that moderate every single fucking day for 8 years, I think it's how they find meaning in life. If I booted them from the moderation team they would lose a large part of themselves.

>>51383548
You already know where to go

>>51383548
>I created a few subreddit, one of then with over 500k subscribers and I check in on thr subreddits maybe once every few months. But I have mods under me that moderate every single fucking day for 8 years, I think it's how they find meaning in life

beyond pathetic

>>51383431
>4chan might not pay but they’re definitely getting paid from outside organizations

I absolutely believe that. We need to find a way to corrupt these idiot jannies so we can get like 5+ BAT threads going every day with infinite spamming bots

Eich still thinks he’s a virologist?

>>51384026
who gives a fuck what brendan posts about on twitter you fucking mongoloid. Get over it and move on

>CEO needs to be shilling his ICO token 24/7

fucking retard

>>51384040
He doesn’t have to do anything. I just think it’s funny the guy is obsessed with conspiracy theories.

Most tech people focus their time tweeting about tech.

GUYS I JUST SOLD ALL OF MY BAT

>>51384065
I guarantee Brendan Eich is 100x as smart as you. Maybe stop being a pretentious ignorant asshole and just respect what he has to say? ESPECIALLY if you're invested in a project directly related to him and everything he's done.

I can't imagine being as low IQ as you. How do you even make everyday decisions. Unreal

>>51384100
Is he also smarter than every virologist?

The guy has Dunning Kruger and you express your opinions like a 15 year old. Shouldn’t you be on Tik Tok right now?

>>51384140
Considering no virologist can find the origin of a fucking coronavirus i would say yes he is

>>51384140
>Is he also smarter than every virologist?

not every virologist disagrees with what Brendan tweets/posts, in fact he's often literally retweeting or posting the opinions of virologists/scientists he agrees with

>The guy has Dunning Kruger
the fact that you can't express this properly is ironic, but also consider that maybe you're exhibiting dunning kruger effect too. That ever cross your mind? Respect what intelligent people have to say. If you don't think Eich is intelligent, why the fuck are you even invested in BAT/Brave? Sell your internet browser token and move on you absolute retard

some people got so caught up in the fucking covid nonsense that they're infuriated when anyone expresses other viewpoints, even if those viewpoints are backed by science/data, it's fucking insane

I don't disagree that Brendan Eich probably spends too much time talking about covid shit, but to think that he's a "conspiracy theorist" when a lot of the viewpoints or reasoning he's expressed have been accurate his overall view on COVID bullshit has been spot on... absolute 0 IQ and I'm embarrassed that you're even invested in BAT

>>51384176
Only 99.999% of virologists disagree with Brendan. You win.

>>51384204
i lost all faith in him during his covid freakout phase, but it wasn't because he was "expressing other viewpoints", it's because he appeared to not understand basic cause-and-effect relationships.
i remember specifically he was posting "proof" that masks didn't work because north carolina and south carolina had the same covid infection rates despite only one of the states having a mask mandate.
i asked him what the actual mask-wearing rate in either state was and he had no answer. he just assumed that since the mandate was in one state that 100% of people would wear masks all of the time, while in the state without mandate no one would wear masks and then extrapolated from that false premise that masks don't work. i found a different resource that reported the mask-wearing rate in either state and they were the exact same, therefore one could not make any conclusions about mask efficacy. when i confronted him on this he started to screech about how his son tripped and hurt his knee because of his mask that was messing with his proprioperception or something faggy like that.
now, masks ARE bullshit. and so is covid. but eich's extremely amateurish data analysis skills realllllllllyyyy shook me. i honestly thought he was a fucking genius but now i think he's just a retarded autist who secretly wishes he was gay

>>51385463
>>51385686
really kicking myself that I decided to "invest" in the same token as you retard redditors. Guess I'm just as much of a midwit as you dumbass faggots.

Guys what's up with the 30 BAT purchased recently? https://brave.com/transparency/
Are they trying to tell us something? If this is not a typo then it must be a test for search ads or self serve? Maybe their search ad partner will have to have USD converted to BAT and the 30 was a test for it?

>>51385686
I remember him getting asked about BAT underperforming against Bitcoin, and he went off about "according to our multivariate analysis, blah, blah, blah, BAT most closely tracks with ETH" entirely forgetting that BAT has performed even worse against ETH.
