What they don't tell you is to get the BAT tokens you have to KYC with some outside service I feel a browser that has it's root's as a "privacy" browser should really re-think the way the rewards are sent out why should a privacy browser make users KYC to get the rewards for viewing adverts?

Very poor if you ask me and it's not even made clear when you start viewing ads that KYC is required or you don't get your BAT tokens

Isn't it not necessary for KYC to get a BAT token in the browser? Like I used Brave browser as surfing the internet but now I don't use it for some reason, but I will try this browser again for Android phones and I don't think this browser needs to root the cellphone.

Yes it is needed you have to give KYC details to some company called uphold to actually get your BAT tokens yet it's not telling you this until you try and claim them I think it's a terrible for a browser that says it's privacy focused to push ad's to users then require they KYC to get the funds via come company.

Brave should OUTRIGHT state to users when turning on the ad's YOU ARE REQUIRED to KYC before you can claim you BAT.

Very poor practice if you ask me.

I have been on this reward program for long but I still do not understand how it works. I had many referrals who used brace browser last month, none of the rewards showed afterwards. Please, can you give me more explanation on how I can get BAT or how to watch ads to earn?

Brave browser to block web fingerprinting with randomisation

By making your browser constantly appear different when browsing, websites are unable to link your browsing behaviour, and are thus unable to track you on the web.

I have also installed the Brave browser and am starting to use it a little. Of course, it’s difficult to take and switch to a new browser, but as practice shows, we must go forward and use new innovative solutions to improve our life and business. I also want to note that the Brave browser gives you the opportunity to earn money on viewing ads, which makes it very attractive to the entire community. It so happened that many need extra money and the Brave browser can help with this. The use of blockchain technology only improves the demand for the browser and makes it the top offer on the market.

This is pretty awesome because just by using the Brave browser up and viewing ads from it, you can already have a privilege to be rewarder with their Basic Attention Token (BAT). What I can just say is that this is a good promotion strategy to be able to make use of Brave browser. I have used Brave browser before and what I can say is that it is a good browser. I just cannot remember the reason why I have decided to uninstall it before. But maybe because of this, I would try reinstalling it once again and see if it is true and if the BAT is worthy. Anyway, it is already March 10 in the forum so I guess it was already 2 days after the launch of the project which is March 8 so I expect there is already an existing reward policy for viewing ads using Brave browser. I do hope that this will be worthy talking about the BAT because the browser itself is already good. I am up into the BAT more over since I have already tried Brave browser before.

Daily Users of Brave's Blockchain Web Browser Pass 4 Million

Brendan Eich, the co-founder and chief executive of Brave and former CEO of Mozilla, recently tweeted that Brave also has 12.2 million monthly users. As such, roughly 30% of Brave’s monthly users utilize the browser daily.

If the project is really decentralized then they would launch the earn program for viewing advertisements for all countries and not only for the selected one.

I have been using brave browser for about 5 months and I am very satisfied with the experience so far. I'm not even using it for earning. It is much faster compared to chorme or firefox (I tested it for a few sites myself) and it have many useful tools already built in. Like track blockers and add blockers. It is also safer for users because they don't collect user data directly.

The biggest disadvantage of Brave browser is it requires users to fully complete KYCs in order to be legit and receive BATs. I am not going through their KYC requirement just because I want to receive some BAT from their advertisement views.

Don't be too greedy and self-disclose your identities, then self-destroy your privacy and your money in the long aspect.

I hardly get 3 ads daily and I don't want to go to KYC so I guess I will not make BAT out of viewing their ads or any other program that will reward members with their shit coin, but I do love their browser, a good alternative for the browsers I'm using for the last ten years but they will never beat Chrome.

I really like Brave. It seems like it is much more faster than other browsers and of course earning BATs is a really nice innovation. So far I have earned 22 BATs from the beginning of this year. Not too bad.

I'm in the same boat as most here, I love the idea behind, it's an awesome project and have everything to goes well, BUT this process of KYC to redeem your Bat is horrible
I'll not risk have my entire browse history and documents to the project, unfortunately

I'll do some tests in a controled enviroment (VM) but without KYC, to test the browser and see the earnings

I have used brave browser but i haven't earned any tokens yet. I haven't found any specialty in brave browser. I have faced few threats when i used this browser from my antivirous software and i deleted this. But i appreciate their promotion as many users of this browser get tokens and earned.

Brave browser has been releasing and giving away BAT token a long time ago, and i really like how you could earn it from just watching ads and you can receive a bat token by just sending it to someone who has their own youtube channel. And this browser is also safe to use, that is why not only crypto users used this browser.

Brave (BAT) Releases Browser Fingerprinting Protection; Monthly Active Users Cross 12 Million
https://brave.com/whats-brave-done-for-my-privacy-lately-episode3

“This approach is fundamentally different from existing fingerprinting defense approaches; current approaches attempt to make all browsers look identical to websites (an impossible goal). Brave’s new approach aims to make every browser look completely unique, both between websites and between browsing sessions. By making your browser constantly appear different when browsing, websites are unable to link your browsing behavior, and are thus unable to track you on the Web.”

Brave deemed most private browser in terms of 'phoning home'

New academic research published last month looked at the phone-home features of six of today's most popular browsers and found that the Brave browser sent the smallest amount of data about its users back to the browser maker's servers.

Few days ago I tried brave and liked it till I learn that stupid KYC thing. Instant uninstall.

Fuck KYC.

I am not handing my passport scan to some random overseas guy. This project is useless like this.
