Litteraly doesn't matter somehow. Is that the token economics? I mean the product is great in theory, but what gives value to the token?

OGN & BAT just threw out a partnership. Hella nice!

>>18249121
been in BAT for ages, #1 holding ($ wise) after Bitcoin, yet it does nothing. It likes to sit in the 10-20 cent range and sometimes during a mini 'alt run' it'll peak near 30cents, which a 1-2x isn't terrible, but when others run 5-10x in the same time (during down/bear markets) it leaves holding a big bag of BAT to be desired. Great products in this market don't make money, hype and FOMO does. The team with the most funds in marketing and promo. will succeed here.

>>18249179
I think long term it helps - theoretically the more people earning/holding BAT decreases the supply. More advertisers buying BAT through campaigns increases demand. But I'm not really well versed on BAT's tokenomics.

>With Origin, the new Brave Swag Store is hosted entirely on IPFS, a peer-to-peer distributed file system, and includes zero tracking cookies or scripts.

oh yeah that's pretty cool

>>18249325
agreed, it's been an extremely disappointing investment but from a pure business standpoint, I like what Brave & BAT are trying to do.

>>18249325
Based and depressing pilled

>>18249253
ZANO OGN and BAT sir. Need some privacy in there too.

>>18249121
I don't care, it's my token. And if, ultimately, BAT fails to take off in the years to come, it will mark Mr. Eich's first *big* failing of his career.

I trust them.

I lost all my faith in Brave when they announced that shitty Binance widget. Brave team must be really desperate for money or just too fucking retarded to realize how chinks operate.

>>18250049
good point

>>18250104
you're retarded, it's totally optional and is just a little widget you can have on your new tab screen. Stop being a reactionary idiot

>>18250214
You are the retard here.
It's enabled by default and it bloats the browser for no reason.
Why couldn't they make it optional to download? Why it had to be built-in?

Brave is following the Netscape steps. It won't last once real competitors show up.

>>18249121
>1 million new Brave users in March edition
>almost 1 million BAT bought by advertisers in March subedition

Bullish as fuck. Everyone is staying in, downloading Brave and soaking up the supply. Great time for advertisers to launch campaigns as well. Regardless of price, the numbers Brave is constantly putting out always reassures me.

>>18250104
It's literally just a widget. Can be removed anytime and for crypto users, its an easy and convenient way to trade. You're really reaching there, Lad.

>>18250049
Based

>>18250360
>It won't last once real competitors show up.

first-mover advantage could go a long way here. Brave can make some insane crypto-related pivots that no other mainstream browser could possibly do.

>>18250360
Such as? Brave is 14 million+ strong with some of the biggest names out there running ad campaigns. It's going to take a very long time and its going to be a huge uphill climb for any competition to gain traction.

>>18250369
That thread you were in last night was epic you need to post more stories

>>18249179
The advertisers give value to the token, they buy it to run their ads. As OP said:
>almost 1 million BAT bought by advertisers in March
BAT is backed by the attention of Brave users and the advertisers willing to pay for that attention.

>>18252669
Been in bat since Jun 17. I'm always in this thread thot poster probably remembers me. I have over 1m bat. I've basically capitulated. I don't know, it just doesn't go up. It's been rough.

>>18253255
>over 1m BAT
>capitulating

Damn dude. If you’d care to make a serious post I’d love to hear your thoughts on why you’re feeling that way.

Heard some anon posts ASS and TITS in these threads, is it true

>>18253485
Price never fucking pumps, bar for two events coinbase and ads release, both were pathetic.
It is literally trading at the same level as July 2017. Browser is good by the KYC fucked them, token has no value. The argument that market demand will push coin is retarded, it never happens. They need 10x the monthly buys of the highest month (10m), to even put any sort of upward pressure. Even then no one fucking wants it cause kyc and uphold sucks balls.
The token sucks. Link holders refuse to sell, bat holders will sell the second they get it.

>>18252768
Kek. First time I've had booze in about 3 years. 1 shot and next thing you know, I'm shit talking influencers who were a pain to work with and posting all kinds of pics lol.

>>18253255
How you been, lad? Hope you're staying safe out there. I honestly sold a bit myself before the dip to put into other investments (non crypto related). It has been a bit rough, but Im going hodl the rest of my stack for a while I think.

>>18253884
Welcome aboard, Lad. I always post T&A and joined by a few others usually. What you want to see, Ill post it next.

>>18254332
holy frig, who is she

>>18249253
FUKING AYE! pretty good shit for ognnnnnn

>>18249121
This coin is fucking garbage

>>18254332
I’m going to fucking coom

>>18254092

>Assets that don't let me 100x my money 15 minutes after I buy them are shitcoin

Rotten brain, due to crypto-driven dopamine spikes.

Uphold is the problem here.

>>18249121
Best browser

Worst crypto

>>18254573
That’s a man

>>18254092
I would think throwing down $100,000+ would mean you're in it for the long haul, all or nothing type of deal

did the token have value when you bought it? It probably has more value now more than ever before. I wouldn't get disheartened just yet, I mean the gameplan doesn't seem to have changed for anyone on the BAT team. Nobody is leaving. Project has new useful updates every other month.

totally understand the frustration though. It's price action is that of a true and utter shitcoin

>>18254573
Not sure. That one has eluded me for sometime and I don't have the program I usually have. Just save it and repost it in a few days I might can find out later.

>>18255344
Uphold is a huge issue. Was hoping to have the Coinbase integration by the start of the summer.

>>18253202
>504k tokens
God damn. Someone is about to spam ads for the next 3 years.

Is anyone really thinking that is going be a high value token?

I like the project but I doubt it will hit $2.

>>18256880
I don't know. If it catches on and people see the price rising, content creators will want to earn it/take donations and will start shilling it.

The way I see it, the tinder is sort of being put down right now. There needs to be a spark that can only come from "price go up". Once people see that, it's going to light a fucking fire, because this project is an actual useful token with an entire infrastructure behind it.

I might be delusional but that's my thoughts on BAT, and I've been around this token for too long.

>>18256606
I've been in these threads for a while and honestly I can't take this anymore. I'm a good looking dude and I've got plenty of money and I'm freshly single. How the fuck can I get this girl to hang out with me at a party I throw for one day in a cool location

>>18253202
And yet its price haven't move a iota since last year, if with the growth it had the price didn't move apart from classical shitcoin moves, what reason is there to think it will rise long term?

Pretty tough for many BAT holders because many bought when there was so much research and information on LINK on biz which has been borne out.

Really nice project but remember the Anna Karenina principle.

>>18257229
just be yourself dude

>>18257450
>Really nice project but remember the Anna Karenina principle.

can you expand on that? reading up on it now, but what do you mean by it?

and yeah I think my conscious decision to "invest" in Brave/BAT over chainlink definitely weighs heavy on my mind, and the minds of all the other /biz/ bat boys.

>>18252669
>>18252768
I remember back when nobody knew where you were getting these photos from, I asked and you started the stories. I missed last night and I unironically feel cucked lmao.

>>18257153
As awful as this sounds quarantines might be the spark. People are going to be home for the next month and will be looking for ways to make extra money, most of which are too lazy to do anything than browse the web.

>>18257450
If I had invested in LINK instead I would have been a millionaire when it hit $3 but I still have more faith in the BAT team in general. Smart contracts are reproducible, good distribution plus solid use cases are not.

>>18257614
>People are going to be home for the next month and will be looking for ways to make extra money, most of which are too lazy to do anything than browse the web.

I think this is true, but feel like all the pieces aren't in place yet to really light the spark. For example as anons already mentioned, Uphold is the only "way out" when you want to go from BAT to USD. That's a huge roadblock. On top of that there are (allegedly) still glitches with in-browser wallets, people (allegedly) lose BAT every month/week and that would be upsetting to lots of users. To top it all off, normies just steer clear of cryptocurrency in general, and there's no Big Name authority to convince them it's not shady garbage yet.

Hopefully with people being inside 24/7 for a long period of time, people will start to take notice that Brave/BAT are a legitimate way to start making money off of online content. I mean even moreso than Bitcoin or any other cyptocurrency imo.

Imagine having every single one of them squat above your face and just let lose with massive shits. God I would love to drown to death that way.

>>18257552
Volatile payment tokens are an issue and there were many threads that discussed this thoroughly. The lack of strong tokenomics was the reason I sold out in late 2018.
>>18257614
>Smart contracts are reproducible
What does that mean?

uhhhhh I’m thinkin based!

If you're good looking and well off financially, you have it in the bag with a simple invite long as you're not a complete nutjob or you sperg out and go full retard with social interaction. Do you 2 already know each other?

>>18257614
Holy shit, you've been in these threads forever too, lol. Glad to see a lot of us still here. You didn't miss much, roasted like 3 influencers in a long winded rant.

>>18257763
He's back! How you been, lad?

Based thotposter, I might have to unironically start coming to these threads more

>>18257294
Brave team buys from Uphold's supply. The price wont be affected as long as Uphold has enough to cover all of it's custodial transactions, as soon as it passes that threshhold it will be moon time. In the meantime Uphold should be where you buy BAT if you want to see a price increase.

>>18258269
>as soon as it passes that threshhold it will be moon time
Sure thing anon, and when would that be?

>>18249121

Hello? Based Department?

>>18258292
>The price wont be affected as long as Uphold has enough to cover all of it's custodial transactions
When Uphold needs to buy from the larger circulating supply to cover Brave ads.

>>18258232
Make sure you do, lad. Consider downloading Brave and stack up some free BAT as well.

>>18258439
desu I will probably end up trading most of it to LINK but I still like the idea of getting paid to watch ads.

>>18258366
Yakuza 0 is based going to finish it after seeing this post

Brave is putting up some serious growth. If they keep this up BAT will be the only crypto token people even care about.
