Brave Browser is out to change the way we interact with the Internet. Their idea is to give users the option to earn free BAT (Basic Attention Token) when using the browser. Meanwhile, supported with more control over user personal data.
When blockchain technology gave the world a clear opportunity to change the financial sector, and many others as well, Brendan Eich – creator of JavaScript and co-founder of Mozilla (Firefox) and Brian Bondy teamed up when they saw an opening that could be used to change how the everyday user experience the Internet.
“With your old browser, you paid to browse the web by viewing ads with your valuable attention. You spent your valuable time downloading invasive ad technology that transmitted your precious private data to advertisers — without your consent.” reads their webpage.
Brave Browser – available on Windows, Mac OS, IOS, and Android – gives users who value their personal data the option of earning BAT rewards. It is through their Brave rewards program – which is completely optional.
So How Do You Start Earning?
Installing & using Brave Browser
This is by far the easiest route to your free crypto. All one needs to do is install the browser and use it for 30 days to earn free BAT. They give out monthly grants of 25 – 40 BAT to users randomly.
Watching ads on Brave
Another simple way Brave users can earn rewards is by opting to view advertisements. Opposed to blocking them. To start, you need to click on the BAT triangle log, then turn on rewards and ads. From there, you choose the maximum number of ads
Brave Rewards For content Creators
This is probably the most exciting of the Brave rewards options. Through this program, content creators like YouTubers, Bloggers, and Podcasters can now earn BAT tips directly through their preferred content-sharing website.
To get started, one will have to add their site/channel to the Brave rewards program. From there, fans and followers can start typing creators directly in BAT. Even create a monthly schedule to support their favorite content.
Referrals
Lastly, Brave users can also earn up to $7.50 worth of BAT by referring other users. With using a referral link that they give to all users who sign up for the Brave Creator program.
That said, giving users the opportunity to get some free crypto while they surf the web is not the only reason that Brave could be the next best browser. It also promises to smooth out one’s experience of the web by “reimagining the broken surveillance economy” that dampens the experience.
“The ads and trackers used to monopolize your attention drain your computer’s resources, resulting in a browsing experience that’s not only less private, but considerably slower.” as per Brave.
In dealing with these issues, the Brave browser promises to remove a significant amount of latency to the Internet experience and also makes your browsing more secure.
