on paper, it was supposed to skyrocket from all this adoption and actual use. I mean brave is probably the 3rd used browser, and you can get free money from ads.

BUT IN REALITY:
while you had ublock before, now you get annoying ads and popups for 1$ per month at most. And when 1 year of your life passes and you have watched ads all this time and made 12$, by that time the price would have dumped and you would have 6$ which would be a HASSLE to even TAKE OUT.
add the exchange fees deposit/withdraw and you would be lucky to get 2$ in your bank account. For having watched ads every damn day the past year of your fucking life.

And this is why...99% of people realize this on the 2nd day and just get rid of it.
The only people who still use BRAVE are 20 year olds with no job, hoping to "make it". Then they order a UBER and now they are -25$.

The same people who would probably suck my cock for 25$. Boom, now you dont have to watch ads for 5 years.

Jason Parser? He’s Rory’s dad. He’s got a problem with Sergey because when Rory and Sergey were friends when they were younger, Sergey used to raid the cupboards and eat everything in the house. It cost Jason Parser a lot of money to replace all the food Sergey used to eat. The final straw was when Sergey was staying at Rory’s one night and stole his car when they were 15 to sneak out to a McDonald’s drivethru. Rory’s dad Jason thinks Sergey is a bad influence on his son and does anything he can to stop them being friends or working together. Why do you think we haven’t heard from Sergey in so long? Jason Parser has been staying with Rory and Sergey has been in hiding shitting his pants.

No, actually YOU don't understand normies. Normies want money fast and are not in it for the long game. That's why they FOMO into BTC while its at 15K, not when it was 6k-9k months before.

You know they already have apps where you can take surveys and watch ads for pennies, right? And if people want to cash out their Brave rewards, they need to jump through even more hoops just do it.

The demographic is people who NEED the pennies at a time. People in the crypto world are gambling thousands of dollars at a time to make gains. They're not going to fuck around trying to earn pennies. Normies won't either. Anyways, I don't have to explain it. I used it, watched some ads, barely earned anything, and deleted it. Not going to waste my time on this earth watching ads for pennies. Keep coping holding this bag.

If after 3 years, your investment hasn't gone up, just admit it was a bad investment. I've been there, we've all been there.

That's not true. You're acting like the only people who use Brave do it to earn money. It's not at all comparable to taking surveys. Browsing the internet is basically a requirement to live these days, I might as well also get paid for it. I don't even notice or think about the ads. So far I've accumulated around 200 BAT across all my devices which is effectively free money since I'd be using them regardless of Brave.

1. The normies you speak of in your first sentence are not normies at all. Normies don't buy bitcoin, period, and you have a very skewed view of the general populace if you think that's the case. If you want to conceptualize a normie from an economic perspective, simply think of them as the debt cattle, the "sheeple" par excellence. If you want them to participate in the sphere and capture their attention, make it easy.

2. The surveys you mention are *chores*, Brave is a fucking *broswer*. One is a thing you would never fucking do, the other is a product you use every day of your life. Notice the difference? You don't even watch the ads either, they pop up and go away and you keep the BAT regardless.

3. The future of BAT is not meant to be a bunch of dildos withdrawing 6 bucks at a time to their checking account, but rather utilizing their earned BAT for either tipping purposes or for use in in-browser purchases.

It's stunning how you fail to be wrong in so many dimensions. The retard who think's he "gets it".

I use Brave on my PC. I like it.
I gave up on BAT though when it stopped working in my browser. I click "claim rewards" and nothing happens. I had like a couple bucks of BAT at one point. I still use the browser, but it no longer gains free BAT even though it's configured too.
I figure I must have disabled something in a hidden setting or something, but I can't find it and I gave up months ago. Not worth my time. So BAT is dead to me.

Still use Brave.

Brave ruined BAT by treating it like it doesn't exist. They're deathly afraid of getting ass fucked by the SEC so they won't even acknowledge it anymore.

The original project split off into two teams, BAT team and Brave team, and Brave does little to nothing to promote/integrate BAT nowadays. BAT team is like 2 people who have no idea how to attract attention/users and are completely reliant on Brave. Once you start to realize how Brave and BAT are actually VERY disconnected, you realize why BAT is so worthless.

One weird thing about BAT that isn't talked about too often is that although it's clearly a shitcoin and its price has been pathetic since day 1, its chart has never gone to 0 and flatlined like a lot of the 2017 shitcoins did.

It has never mooned. It has never flatlined. It just stays in its sad little range and inches toward 0 without ever really threatening to go there.

BAT's chart has to be one of the most unique charts in crypto. Maybe I'm wrong. Pic related; most 2017 ERC20 tokens ended up looking like this chart.

Not to mention that BAT led the 2019 bullrun, months before BTC caught on. All-time low sats value means you'd be an idiot to sell BAT now. BAT will never get you lambos but it's one of the safest alts to trade because it has acceptable volume, a consistent floor, and correlates poorly with the rest of the market.
