yeah i thought at one point i read that it was ment to pay the user to view ads which would make more sense, i get the whole support the website by paying them micropayments for there content, but has anyone mybe thought about the fact that users dont want to pay anymore and other ways to support yourself needs to be sought..... i cant see this working in the long run. i just tried it out and the browser is fine, but i also tried to watch a sports streaming site on brave and it just wouldnt work.......

Why should I pay a website a few satoshis to get rid of the ads when I can use an adblocker for free?
This doesn't make much sense to me.
It should be the other way around. The sites should pay us to bear the ads. I mean they are the ones who want something from us.
It's our time! You want me to watch your ads because you think you've got something interesting for me than pay me for that time.
That's how I see it.

Yes, I'm thinking the same. Maybe Brave Browser is targeted at people, who feel somehow guilty of blocking ads and morally obliged to pay something to the site's operator. However that's likely only a very small group of users. From my point of view, blocking ads is not only an option, but a duty, because many ads are annoying, invade your privacy, or can even be a security risks. Also I don't see why in particular the websites in the list should receive donations - most of them are owned by big companies / foundations.
Even with an adblocker there are still ways to make money of a website by advertising. Instead of using the big ad networks you can still link affiliate shops for example. Or you can offer your own content/products for sale. As you have pointed out, I think Brave Browser would be successful if it paid for adviews. But the way it is I see no significant use case for it.
ya.ya.yo!
It is new innovation on browser and will becoming bitcoin more popular although it is still beta, but we must be notice about security, speed of access, file size, advertising and another reasons.
They block the ads in the website and then tip the sites according to how much you browse them. They tip the actual website, by sending them an email and asking for them to verify the ownership over the domain with a TXT record. but I don't think it's going to get so popular, because people can just use regular adblocks and never tip the website.
I thought that this system is something else - it will allow users to get money by browsing sites. It is not about tipping site as much as earning BTC by not blocking ads.If what you said was the concept here then I don't see any reason why people should use Brave browser at all.
is this browser sure? no virus/tracking inside? someone realy test it?
Here is some more details about the subject.

Ok, So now you pay them, not to spam you with Ad's... what do they get out of that? They still need to advertise and if everyone blocks their Ad's
they will have zero sales and a bunch of money from this to do what with? I also thought they paid the users in micro payments, when they used this
browser. OK, so I also misunderstood this.

The website simply get tipped once a month, and the browser blocks the ads. so basically you get no ads (same as adblock in chrome) but the site still generates revenue because they get BTC micropayments. so everyone's happy, supposedly.

Lol, that's damn true, it is giving no sense to me too that we have to pay the websites with ads because we don't want to see them, but why would someone do that? As the mate mentioned above someone can have a adblocker for free that will do the work so why would someone pay anyone for getting rid of the ads?
I'm satisfied with Google Chrome with an Adblock Plus. I haven't had any problems with it.
For me it is the best browser ever created so far.
Get my point? A business can be successful if no one's ever done it before.

Where are the guys from Brave browser to discuss here on Bitcointalk?
I saw some tweets about this browser and was curious but after reading this it seems like a bit of a non issue, won't bother with it as ads don't really bother me enough to warrant using this.
There is no point for user to use brave browser instead of regular browsers, they don't earn to surf, they don't get complete rid of ads as brave browser themeselves will show their ads if you don't pay them and also not all site owner actually know about bitcoin/brave browser well to get payment from them. Regular browser with free adblocker plugin is enough for users.
I was reading this at Coindesk a few minutes ago and I thought I should share it with you guys. I thought I got their concept right when they first announced the launch of Brave but It seems like I didn't (after reading the comments in Coindesk) , so I'm still not sure If users who use the browser will get paid or the publishers of ads are the one who gets paid..
But for the users of the browser, i think that is very irrelevant in my minds but whether the browser in your picture is the brave browser? If that is correct I'm very like with their display.
