BAT

Traded my $66 of earned BAT for some WEN months back and watched it drop 75% to where it is now. Talk about bad to worse.

I dont think most people have the ability to recognize innovation until its a new app on their fucking iphone. Cursory scan, this thread is shitting on BAT as a concept, and..   decentralized computing as a CONCEPT. Lol, get ur small brains tf out of here...

> It’s the onboarding platform for crypto people using Brave hate BAT. The #1 asked question in the Brave browser is how to turn off annoying ads, I don't want BAT. Companies are not advertising on Brave. Just a few maninstream companies that have been incentivized to try for free or try at a discount, never to return; and then mostly crypto related stuff. There is no demand for Brave ads, it's reflected in the price. $0.85 when Brave had 1 million monthly active users in Jan. 2018 and $0.16 with what 50 million monthly active users today. > How do you turn off Brave pop ups? https://np.reddit.com/r/brave_browser/comments/cpcowq/how_do_you_turn_off_brave_pop_ups/ > Pop Ups are totally unacceptable.

Forking Chrome with Ad Block built in instead of an extension and selling money grab tokens to dumb gullible investors has nothing to innovation. Brave downloads have nothing to do with the BAT token which nobody wants or uses. I said this back in early 2018 when they kept on touting 1 million Brave downloads and I kept on listing reasons why it's a money grab gimmick back in 2019. https://np.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/cflfh9/why_does_brave_need_its_own_currency_why_cant_it/euba6hr/ People fall for gimmicks thinking they're smart and lose money

I was big on Verge in 2017 and sold a day before Mcafee mooned it. Then I was big on BAT token for ages but sold it all 2022. Also LTC, sold all that. Also NAV coin...dammit I've lost fortunes. Now my favourite coin is Monero but my position is getting smaller and smaller, I keep selling it because the price doesn't do much.

BAT came out in 2017 how is it innovative lol.

Ha. Good call. That was a brief moment in time for me, but I am embarrassed to admit I once held a ridiculous amount of BAT for no good reason. I use the brave browser almost exclusively and love it, but holding that much BAT was such a rookie move. Live and learn 🤷‍♀️

$BAT it powers the world's best browser. Having the best browser is the start of anything you do online.

Suspicious-Local-901

Ooohh no, nostr is very different from Brave. Brave is a webbrowser that’s centralized and gives people some BAT for watching ads. Nostr in the first place has no ads. Nostr is like a whole new kind of protocol (not a blockchain by any means) where people can build all kinds of apps on. I use it mostly as a decentralized open source version of twitter (X). The best part about it being decentralized is that it can’t have any outages. And what I meant by getting sats is that you’re actually able to send people some sats if you like the stuff they’re making, or posting on there.

WittyScratch950

Hey sorry excuse my ignorance, but from my quick look into it, is it not similar to what brave was trying to do with BAT? I really liked that project but it never really got any traction.

gastro_psychic

This is because crypto is really popular in Japan? I seem to remember BAT having a lot of users there.

I've been accumulating my BAT for years. With any luck they get some price action, but I sure as hell wouldn't buy it xD

Back in the day, I used to lend my BAT on compound for like 1% interest. Is that still a thing on compound? I didn’t see it listed. Guessing no one wants my BAT lol

todamoonralph

One of the YouTube influencers I watch suggests buying new alt coins for the new cycle. Sez the old ones have had their day in the sun already. I hope he is wrong because I have a lot if BAT and am hesitatent to dump it and replace it with something new. BAT has been pretty consistent and has demonstrated staying power. I do wish it would return to a buck a coin .. I'd be dancing in the street should that ever happen again.

Money grab hype and scam gullible crypt investors. I said this when people were asking what's the next big hype in early 2023. Of course some people made big if then went early and pulled out but like all crypto bullshit, most people lose money > (I'm going to need to look up AI coins to see what they do) Just like 99.9% of crypto, they take money from idiots and rug pull. See DeepBrainChain, SingularityNET, etc. https://np.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/10qyi2n/what_will_be_the_new_hot_thing_of_the_next_bull/j6t7sn4/ I said this about the bullshit supply chain hype back in 2018/19 where most of the people lost most their money on Ambrosus, Exim, Modum, OriginTrail, Te-Food, Vechain, WaltonChain, etc. https://np.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/bh503m/bloomberg_the_50_trillion_dollar_supply_chain/elqk6e7/ People are always falling for this hype tech on in crypto that provides some type of utility and doing research. Crypto is mostly filled with gullible and techincally illiterate and every time you look deeper, you see it doesn't work. Like in 2018/19, people who invested in BAT kept on touting big brained genius Brendan Eich, creator of Javascript, creating some type of advertising revolution with the Brave browser and if you're not invested you don't understand. I looked into it a bit, and you easily see it's a money grab token and I posted this back in 2019: https://np.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/cflfh9/why_does_brave_need_its_own_currency_why_cant_it/euba6hr/ - BAT is a gimmick and it'll never be adopted - Brave browser has less than 1% of marketshare - Users use Brave to block ads not view them - Viewing ads is optional, only a fraction of users will choose to view ads for some obscure crypto token - No advertisers will pay BAT to poor people who want to view ads on a browser with less than 1% market share with a fraction of the users who actually view ads. Advertising is all about hitting demographics with money. - Right now, the project has granted to crypto companies to look like they are advertising. Very misleading - Ads appear as system notifications, that you click and never even have to view. I am not sure how they think who are hate ads will choose to turn this feature which is even more annoying on - Can't cash out BAT. It's not in Ethereum blockchain. It's BAT's own centralized database. - I've had my BAT that I earned reset to 0 plus the 5 when I received my grant for the month which isn't mine to withdraw but donate to others. Again, don't you love the fact that they don't grant you BAT on the blockchain but their own centralized database which fucks up and loses track of the number? - Eventually you'll have to do KYC to withdraw BAT. Now again, what percentage of users who want to block ads, will turn on ads to earn BAT and do KYC? - Finally, Brave has already been forked and will be forked more. When it comes to it people will use Brave or Fork without caring about the BAT

This is part of why this conversation is always so hard to have. "Crypto" is not a asset class, or a type of company. It's simply an immutable ledger with varying degrees of programability. Even if we just focus on ERC20 Ethereum tokens, a subset of crypto, they can be: \* A wrapped asset, like wrapped Bitcoin \* A stablecoin, like DAI \* A governance token, like AAVE \* A deposited/staked investment receipt, like cDAI for "DAI in Compound Finance" \* A untradeable tracking of debt, like AAVE debt tokens \* A utility token, like BAT \* A "Software As A Service" fee token, like LINK \* Untransferable point system, like a videogame and so much more. Not to mention, it can be a combination of the above, i.e. a governance token with utility that can be used as a fee in software as a service products. Before we can establish fundamentals, the first part of the discourse needs to be categorizing it. Otherwise, theres a counter example to every single point, cause there is no enforced consistency between cryptos. So far, we've pretty much just created categories for "Stablecoins" vs "Crypto", and sometimes we throw in "Utility Token" and "Governance Token", but we need to take it further, and talk about the separate use cases as distinct

Over 6+ years ago, Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong tweeted: > I think most or many user generated content apps on the web today (stack overflow, YouTube, Facebook, Reddit, quora, github etc) will all get rebuilt on the decentralized web and every upvote/like/star/follower/etc will send real money to the creator of the content - January 2, 2018 https://gist.github.com/travisbrown/ef999d98e9f79c05221bebb36563e3ec There is no indication of anything like this being built on crypto 6+ years later. Still VCs and Foundations generating hype and dumping worthless tokens on gullible crypto investors. Also remember 6+ years ago, Brain Armstrong was hyping up 2 projects as having legitimate use cases, utility and primed for adoption -- and these were the first 2 ERC-20 tokens listed on Coinbase: - BAT is -88% since 2018. - ZRX is -98% since 2018. No use case, no utility, just money grab tokens. > What do you think every other thing outside of crypto is like too? Outside of crypto companies actually: - produce products and services that people buy and use everyday - generate millions or billions in revenue from people who use their product or service - generate millions or billions in profit - employ tens of thousands of people providing them with income, benefits, stability, retirement plans, etc The product crypto produces is tokens, almost all of which have no utility and are hype up and dumped by founders, insiders and VCs who become rich/richer at the expense of gullible crypto investors

Just look at the notable people who have launched crypto projects staking their reputation to milk the crypto cash cow. If people like this have no integrity and sell you useless shitcoins to get rich, you can be sure almost everything else out there is also a moneygrab scam. - BAT creator, Brendan Eich created Javascript and co-founded, Mozilla. He saw $$$ and said BAT was project that was going to revolutionize digital advertising and in January 2018 on Twitter, he said he was willing to make a bet BAT would outperform Bitcoin. January 2018, Brave had 1 Million monthly active users, get in now while BAT is cheap at $0.75! (In 2024 Brave has 75 Million active users, BAT is now $0.24) - AVAX founder Emin Gün Sirer is a Cornell professor and respected in the Bitcoin community. In 2016, he stated that there is no innovation outside of Bitcoin and Doge was the only other interesting crypto to him because it was used for charitable things. He launched his own chain in 2020 and in 2021 posed under subway signs saying "We're all going to make it." He now says all the innovation is going to make Bitcoin obsolete. - Algorand founder Silvio Micali gifted himself 20% of the supply of tokens and "the Foundation" used money collected from investors to buy FIFA partnership, buy some dead filesharing companies like Napster and Limewire in order to hype up a project and laugh straight to the bank.

Payment tokens are a completely dead narrative. BAT is another shitcoin that comes to mind with this problem.

TheMissingNTLDR

Brave Ads and BAT

Elean0rZ

Oops, you responded to the thread rather than to me, so I didn't see this until now. To your first question, fundamentally, the only thing that matters is whoever holds the private keys to the coins in question, but let's back up for a sec. If you purchased your coins/tokens by paying fiat currency (USD or whatever) on a typical regulated centralized exchange (CEX), you would have gone through KYC (know your customer) with the exchange, in which you would have shown ID. So when you do something from within your account on that exchange (e.g., buying/selling/trading), the exchange has records that associate those actions with your name. While your coins are "on" the exchange, what that really means is that they're held in wallets whose private keys are controlled by the exchange. In that respect it's no different from when you deposit your money in a conventional bank. In a literal sense, that money isn't yours; you don't possess it; you can't do anything with it unless you ask the bank to do it for you; and, worst case, if the bank goes under, you could theoretically lose it all. So when you trade on a CEX, just like when you, say, move funds from one account to another at the bank, they're all basically virtual transactions in which the CEX or bank just shifts assets that it possesses from one account to another, each of which is associated with a real live person in the bank's or CEX's records. Now think about what happens if you withdraw cold, hard cash from the bank. There's a record of the withdrawal, but once you have coins or bills in your hands, everything you do downstream of that is essentially anonymous, unless (say) the serial numbers of the bills were recorded or whatever. With crypto it's similar in that, just as your name isn't on the cash you withdrew from the bank, your name isn't on your crypto coins/tokens. As soon as you withdraw from the exchange to a wallet for which you control the private keys, your assets are no longer associated with a regulated address with recorded personal info. The address is just a string of letters and numbers, with no further identifying features. HOWEVER...the blockchain is, by definition, an immutable record of every transaction that has every occurred on that network. So if (say) Joe Smith starts with some assets at Address A at the exchange, which has his name associated with it, and then moves them to anonymous Address B, and then anonymous address C, or whatever, that chain of transactions will be visible for all to see (with the exception of a very small number of privacy-focussed blockchains like Monero, but that's a conversation for another day). At minimum, it will usually be possible to say that Address C interacted with Address B, which interacted with Joe Smith's Address A. So while addresses B and C are indeed anonymous, if someone really wanted to track things down, they could trace the transactions back to the exchange, and if that somebody was a regulatory body, they could then potentially subpoena identifying info from the exchange. Now, back to the original question, in a technical sense, as far as the blockchain is concerned, ownership is solely defined by who holds the private keys to the assets in question. If I have the private keys (= passphrase, more or less) to some coins, then I have the power to control those coins, and therefore they are "mine". Your coins are "yours" because they are associated with an address for which you control the private keys. Nothing more, and nothing less. Names are irrelevant. (The blessing and the curse of blockchain transactions is that they're irreversible, so if I send my coins to the wrong address or get scammed or whatever, there's usually no recourse. As soon as my coins are sent to an address for which someone other than me controls the keys, I have no technical ownership over them. Even if there were personal information affixed to them, there's no practical way to get them back if they end up in the wrong hands.) To your second question, the Ethereum network is just a platform. It (and all blockchains) can account for a practically unlimited number of addresses. When you asked "if Joe Smith sends his BAT to the Ethereum network, is it the same address that I'm sending my BAT to", that's about the same as asking "if Joe Smith sends his email to Gmail, is it the same address that I'm sending my email to". That is, the question doesn't actually make sense. Point one, you don't send your email TO the Gmail; you use Gmail to send email. Likewise, you don't send BAT or any other token TO the Ethereum network; you use the Ethereum network to send tokens, including BAT. Point two, Joe Smith presumably has his own address that's distinct from yours. Of course, if he knows you or wants to for any other reason, Joe Smith could send email to your email address, just like he could send BAT from his Ethereum address to yours. Let me know if this is helping or making it worse haha.

todamoonralph

Thanks for responding! When I buy coins, are those coins somehow affixed with information that identifies them as mine? Since I sent BAT and Etherium to same address, is that my wallets address or is it the Etherium network address? .. if Joe Smith sends his BAT to the Etherium network, is it the same address I'm sending my BAT too?

Elean0rZ

I can't speak about Tangem specifically, so this is more general. As a general concept, you should understand that no crypto asset is ever "on" or "in" ANY wallet. Your assets are always just a bunch of digital 1's and 0's on the big, shared ledger we call the blockchain. Wallets are simply graphical interfaces that allow you to interact with your specific 1's and 0's via something called your private keys, which are essentially your unique passphrase. A wallet's job is to hold your private keys and make it easier for you to interact with your assets. (The difference between software and hardware wallets is simply in the degree and nature of the security with which they do so.) Think of it as something like webmail (perhaps you have a Gmail or Hotmail account). Your actual emails are floating around on various servers somewhere out there in the digital wilderness. You access your specific emails via a passphrase, and to do this you need an interface like a web browser (Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari, whatever). Your emails aren't "on" or "in" Chrome, even though you see use Chrome to see them. Anyway, when you "send" a crypto asset, the shared ledger simply records that those particular 1's and 0's are now associated with **that** address (and therefore its private keys) rather than **this** address (and *its* private keys). More specifically to your question, ETH is, of course, Ether, and runs on the Ethereum network (blockchain) as you would expect. What you may be missing is that BAT, short for Basic Attention **Token** is an Ethereum ERC-20 token. Oversimplifying, that means that it is code that's built and runs on the Ethereum network (hosting tokens like this is one of Ethereum's core functions). In other words, both ETH and BAT are Ethereum-based assets, so they are both associated with Ethereum addresses. The reason your ETH and BAT can live happily together in the same wallet is that they're members of the same family, so to speak. It's like saying, this person lives in this house, but that person's kids *also* live under the same roof. They're related. Not sure if that helps!

PreventableMan

>What are the barriers to using crypto in this way today? The real world merchants with huge turnover does not offer this & your second point of "this will only go up, always hold" is hurting crypto so much. Remember BAT? Well, everyone held instead of putting it back to the community. I would argue that one of the main reasons for BAT's semi.disappearance is that we never used it. The community destroyed it.

IsaacNewton1643

Basic attention token. Assuming Brave isn't dead by then. But considering how well they've been doing. Pivoting to include AI in the browser, — in a private and secure manner. Acquiring a search engine and then upgrading continuing to upgrade it significantly. Brave talk, Brave VPN etc. They have a decent suite of products and keep expanding. Also the guy who made it, and a significant portion of the team were from Mozilla, The CEO/co-founder was a former CEO of Mozilla, he also created Java script. I guess what I'm saying is they have a good team with a proven track record and after 7 years still have not abandoned BAT. They also have added a wallet to the browser(not an extension, built from the ground up) soon theyre adding rewards going straight to Solana wallets, I believe with no kyc, but am not 100% certain, about 95%. Soon a significant portion of BAT will be bridging over to solana to pay out rewards that way. By this i guess im saying they are chain agnostic. They've stated it multiple times. BAT can be anywhere. They don't want BAT to be just for Brave too, although that may be hard to get others to use it for attention related things. But it has been used extensively in Defi. So anywaym 7 years, already. Its I think the 12th most distributed on chain token on ethereum? Or it was a few months ago, my numbers may be off. And who knows how many are in exchange wallets — because that's the main way rewards have been paid out. Im really excited to see what happens once a significant barrier to rewards(rewards needing to go to exchanges) is removed and the rewards can go straight to Solana wallets. I expect many people may give Brave/BAT a second look then, but I guess thats another discussion.

What most people don't **know** is **they are holding a shitcoin.** So many people got defensive saying their favorite project was not a shitcoin in the past... - IOTA is not a shitcoin. Look at the partnership with Bosch, Volkswagon, they are advisors to the EU digital currency initiative, etc. - EOS is not a shitcoin. It scales. Billions has been invested in it. A decentralized Uber and Social Media platform is being built on it. - Enigma is not s shitcoin. These are the brightest minds coming out of MIT - BAT is not a shitcoin. Brendan Eich is a genius and the creator of Javascript? Why would a genius be involved in a money grab shitcoin? ...and in a few years are going to come to a realization that projects like Algorand, Turning winner or not, are just another moneygrab shitcoin like the rest.

If you watch CNBC, they regularly print other major capos along side BTC. Besides Bitcoin, Grayscale has provided access to lots of other cryptos as well. Besides Bitcoin and Ethereum, there is almost zero interest from institutional and traditional finance for anything else. Institutional and traditional finance are not going to buy shitcoins and scams and make the numbers go up. So many shitcoins celebrated Grayscale making their shitcoin available as an investment over the years but nobody really bought it. - ETH $10 Billion - Large Cap Fund $600 Million - Bitcoin Cash $170 Million - Litecoin $146 Million - Solana $73 Million - ZCash $10 Million - XLM $11 Million - BAT $3 Million

I've been using Brave for a couple of years. Couldn't be bothered syncing up the BAT for the reasons you mentioned. The fact that the browser is the best I've found and the BAT is a bonus is really bullish though.

r66yprometheus

Brave Browsers utility coin, Basic Attention Token (BAT) for having ads activated, saving those up until the BAT/BTC makes it worth while.

IsaacNewton1643

They started a whitelist first for rolling out direct to Solana wallets. They're basically doing it first with people who are in the BAT/Brave community to see if there are any kinks before they do the full rollout. So they should have it up and running soon. I've seen tons of people.complain about problems with the exchanges and linking rewards etc. Not liking dealing with uphold, etc. Problems of people in whole countries getting kicked off because of their exchanges were afraid of regulations or whatever. So I think there is a very large group of potential users who have been unable to use BAT due to friction. And I'm hoping all of that disappears very very soon. It may cause a sudden change in the perception of BAT. Also since it's opening up the potential for easier reward payouts they may have an easier time implementing it with things like the search engine. Which once people realize... millions of users using BAT and its tied to a search engine etc.

livluvsmil

That’s cool. At least it’s tied to something actually being used. I tried to get BAT so many times and I’d connect it to one of the exchanges and then a month or two later I tried to access it and it’s like it was as never connected and I had to start all over on Brave again setting it up. Finally gave up on it.

IsaacNewton1643

Basic Attention Token A lot of things have been changing over the past few years. Brave acquired a search engine and great it to over 800 million queries per month. Thr browser itself has ~70m active monthly users ~26m daily. They got rid of the old vBAT system, which was basically Braves private ledger to help them keep track and pay out rewards. But it was off chain. Users had to KYC with a 3rd party exchange and have their rewards sent there if they actually wanted to have posession of their BAT. This was a huge hurdle for most users. Probably turned away a significant amount of users. No one wants to KYC and send their crypto they earn through an exchange. But they said it was basically their only option at the time due to limitations of ethereums and millions of small transactions. Anyway they are getting rid of KYC and are sending rewards directly to solana wallets now. It sounds small but I think it's huge. A lot of people got of the BAT rewards system, or were turned off to it because of KYC and linking an exchange. This could bring in a huge influx of users. That's basically most of it. They are marketed as a privacy/security browser. Which sounds ideal for crypto. The userbase has been growing. All of thr BAT is in circulation. Theyre also have added an AI assistant to the browser, with premium options, image generation is coming soon. Will have an option to pay with BAT. They haven't added BAT rewards to search yet which could be big. Anyway dont feel like typing more. Am kind of busy. Feel free to ask questions if i wasn't clear or if you want to know more. Now I dont think it will be the next 100x, but I do think big things will happen eventually. Its at an all time low in SATs and Brave is about to greatly increase access to the token.

Thanks. The main thing that got me into it was I liked the browser. Then I realized there was a token. They recently started getting rid of KYC and have a built in wallet and their own search engine. They've said they're committed to implementing BAT more , they're just a little slow. I'm hoping eventually with the user base ~70m monthly browser users and around 900 million queries per month on their search engine that eventually it will take off.

I’ve never used the browser but personally I’d never buy BAT. I think there are much more promising projects out there

BAT - no product market fit yet, apparently.

My advice, don't buy any utility coin. They always over hype and under deliver and without adoption no one wants the coin... BAT, ADA, BCH are just some examples.

>the issue its they pay people who enroll in said coin, so whay people do as soon as they get it its sell it. Is this the same problem BAT had? I was always confused as to why a coin that almost had applicable monetary value never really took off.

Unless i read coinglass wrong Grayscale has been loading up on BAT, why?

Not sure why BAT has so much hate. Probably just the people in countries that don't get high payouts or advertisements.

I think it’d be cool to see BAT trade at $10/double digits sometime in my life

>ANKR: $50 LINK: $35 PNG: $35 BAT: $35 BTC: $35 AAVE: $30 LRC: $25 XLM: $25 LTC: $25 I would consolidate all of this into something that's AI related

Get rid of XML, LTC, LRC, BAT, PNG, ANKR and move them all into something better. I would suggest SOL, ETH, BTC, LINK. I think you will see the ones I mentioned fly high sometime from this April to fall of 2025. The others are kinda meh and some really haven’t done that well or have crap utility. That’s my opinion anyway and I’ve been in crypto since 2017.

BAT? Come on, man. Why not BURGER? 🙄

https://brave.com/transparency/ Solid project with 67 million active users and BAT is still way below ATH

BAT is way below its high from last cycle, and Brave browser has gained millions more users in that time.

It has to be DOGE. I think BAT for tipping would be much more useful but doubt Elon would add any features that wouldn't be under control of Twitter.

BAT. The brave browser works great and a lot of people have been using it for a while now.

You can buy on most CEX for no commission. It launched on all top exchanges, has good potential as it’s an omni chain blockchain and has huge backing, coinbase and BAT project launched it.

BAT to the moon!

Great to see BAT moving again. It could go mental this bull run now that self serve ads are live, and is currently miles away from last ATH.
