What is the Brave Browser?
Brave is an open-source and free browser that blocks ads and trackers and enables you to surf online more anonymously. It’s built on Chromium, an open-source engine, just like Google Chrome and (soon) Microsoft Edge. This means that you can add most of the Chrome extensions to Brave, by simply browsing the Chrome Web Store and adding the extension you want to use.
The brave browser was founded by a famous person Brendan Eich, Who is known for the invention of javascript. Brendan Eich was also the co-founder of Mozilla, which created the Firefox browser.
Brave browser is made upon the chromium engine with some tweaks to get more privacy, security, and speed.
Brave Browser is available on iOS, Android, macOS, Windows, and Linux platforms, and you can download it and use it completely free.
What is Basic Attention Token (BAT)?
Brave Browser’s native token is called Basic Attention Token, or BAT for short. It’s built on Ethereum blockchain, and it can be exchanged between publishers, advertisers, and users. At the moment of writing this blog post, BAT’s price on CoinMarketCap equals $0,228369 USD.
