Yeah when you realize it’s trackng your every move it becomes disgusting but performance-wise it’s ok. Brave, in purging every vestige of google from it, leaves a very lean and quick browser-plus unlike in firefox I can rearrange my bookmarks on mobile. Having them in chronological order added instead of “however the fuck I want to arrange them” always triggered me

I work in a marketing firm in Pasadena (with branches all over the country) and the manager of this branch set aside $50k over a year ago to buy BAT so that when the marketing industry is severely competed with he'll have a segue into the Brave ad marketplace. He met with someone working for Brave (not that eichen guy) and was told that BAT is going to also be able to be spent on premium content (hulu subscriptions, netflix, pay-per webcam...)

Don't sell unless you desperately need hard cash right now, and don't expect any increase in price for another few years

I'm not up to date with what they're currently doing, but I know that it's still in its early software release life cycle. Last I checked, they were (and probably still are) communicating and dealing with 3rd parties, which can takes years to complete. This is a HODL token, not a get-rich-quick token. Other cryptos don't need to deal with 3rd parties so their live release dates are quick (and most are already live and aren't succeeding)

Yes Congress has the power to legislate, and judicial branch can't legislate from the court. If over 2/3 vote, President doesn't have to sign. If under 2/3 vote, President has to sign. Not sure what legislation you're talking about. This isn't some Bezos-UPS tax exemption racket

Honestly even if they did just what he said that’d be a potent maneuver. If Mcrosoft, Google and Apple all locked Brave out of their services it’d be a death blow unless the Brave devs are already considering that possibility and have some kind of contingency. However, m$ et al haven’t blacklisted adblock-capable browsers as far as I know so that could be a good sign they’re willing to play ball-but that’s still definitely something to look out for

Archived thread suggested that March 12 is when the fledgling ad network goes live. I wonder if we can expect any big promotional events preceding that, I'd like to see more interviews with Eich. I like the idea of voluntarily supporting websites and individuals you enjoy and I wonder how the company is going to try and meme that culture into reality, and also if censorship will have any place in the BAT network. 4chan itself for example has long been struggling to find a replacement for J-list and other sponsors because of controversial content, and hundreds of millions of people are equipped with ad blockers now. A big question is how much a user gets for viewing an ad and how that's decided and how that evolves over time.

For a browser and token whose purpose is advertisements, I'm sure they have something in the works

>A big question is how much a user gets for viewing an ad and how that's decided and how that evolves over time.
Not sure how they decide that. Most tokens are priced based solely on the most current ask price. If they're smart they'll advertise it close to launch, which is probably a while from now since they're still getting promoters and clients on board (like pewdipie and other youtubers, journalism/news websites, and twitter)
