>>52662350
I still like him but man, has he dropped the ball. Again, today, on Twitter, I've seen him Retweet obscure shit about why such and such Covid medicament should revoked or whatnot. LET IF FUKN GO, JESUS. At this point, I'd be happier if someone else takes over the project.

And yet for some reason I'm still not selling my BATs. I've married these bags. And Brave is still a good browser.

>Again, today, on Twitter, I've seen him Retweet obscure shit about why such and such Covid medicament should revoked or whatnot.
It's literally the most ridiculous shit I've ever seen. If only he cared as much about his fucking company.

possibility of Brave OS

Twitter insider here. Elon is serious about the Tesla phone. It’s pretty much a forgone conclusion around the office that Brave would be the default browser. I’ll update here when I get more details

The Bear market hurts, man. Stop fucking us Bobo.

>>52663691
He can't even make a fucking swag store and you really think they are going to make an OS?

>>52664571
Shut up

>>52664620
Can't just blame it on the bear market. Luke was spouting off about how this would be a "bear market gainer" and then they literally just don't release anything the entire time.

>>52664651
I agree. Still an uphill battle with the market, but thus far they've only overpromised and underdelivered. Believe in the project - just disappointed.

Also the growth stats have been fucking atrocious. Everything has stagnated and they aren't innovating at all. The search engine blows fat cock because it gives the same censored bullshit results as Jewgle. They might have their own index, sure, but either they are censoring it or Google has curated the narrative so heavily that even a totally independent indexed search engine spits back the same propaganda trash anyways.

But then again, if that were the case then DDG and Yandex would give similarly shitty results

Thank you for playing

This is the old one, not the "new" one they're working on.

Who knows what the fuck is going on there. If Eich had any balls he would do exactly what Elon is doing. No more work from home, everyone back in the office and oh by the way half of you fucking niggers are fired for never accomplishing anything. People that work at this company clearly don't give a fuck about innovating. A bunch of work from home lazy fat fuck trannies might work for a publicly traded company with unlimited blackrock dollars getting thrown at it, but not for this.

I think Eich might actually fail and just run out of money. I can't imagine how many miles away from profitability they still are at this point.

there is literally an equation he published which explains price stability

>>52666428
you lying faggot. In January 2018, the fat scammer tweeted that BAT would outperform BTC
> How about 10 BAT in one year from today, you pay me if BAT:BTC >= 0.00015 (max to date is 0.000145), else I pay you. Safe if BAT is worthless as you contend. How can you lose? ;-) - Brendan Eich @BrendanEich · Jan 24, 2018
> https://twitter.com/BrendanEich/status/956237347649069057
Not only has it lost massively to BTC but it's less than 1/3 of it's USD value.

>>52662350
>>52666428
>>52666911
Yes, BATTies invested in a:
> FAT LAZY BOOMER FOUNDER who never made money despite being early on the Web so he created money grab token to scam low IQ investors in crypto
> LAZY DEVELOPERS who
> Have not developed anything in 5 years
> (1) BRAVE is a fork of Chrome with adblock built in instead of a plugin
> (2) BAT is an ERC-20 token that every scammer creates with a few lines of copy pasta code
> (3) SEARCH was a company that was acquired after collecting free money from low IQ crypto investors
> Now instead of developing utility the lazy and idept team is fiddling with NFTs, Newsfeeds, Video Chat, Integrating Shitcoins into the Wallet, etc

The NUMBERS DON'T LIE. BAT is WORTHLESS:
> 57 Million Monthly Active Users on Brave
> 1 million in revenue in September
> ~1.7 RED AMERICAN PENNIES PER BRAVE USER kek
> Number of successful businesses that make 1.7 pennies per month per user = ZERO. ZERO!!!
TAKEAWAY:
> User growth stalled / in decline.
> Inability to monetize Brave through BAT after a half decade, earning 1.7 cents per
> Large Brands bought ad campaigns and never came back. Ford, Coke, Chipotle, Paypal, every major advertiser has abandoned Brave. No bluechip advertiser in months.
> Taking Digital Ads and stripping away what makes them valuable (data that helps advertisers sell products) essentially means BRAVE ADS = WORTHLESS

>>52667031
What this shows is that Brave downloads and usage have no bearing on the token. Glorified Ad Blocker. Token used for money grab gimmick. A fraction of the users actually turn on ads - people will pay NOT to view ads.

BRAVE users != BAT shitcoin holders

Brave fans:
Love privacy
Hate big tech
Hate ad industry
Hate government
Probably use Linux, free software

BAT fans:
Don't care much about privacy (use public ledger crypto, rationalize KYC)
Love nu-big tech (web3)
Love ad industry (it'll cause BAT to moon)
Love government (regulation and institutional adoption will make BAT moon)
Probably less tendency to use Linux and free software

BATTies OFICIALLY got scammed.

>>52666973
You know he was already the OP but just switched his VPN? Hes been here the whole time.

>>52667048
Doubt it's VPNs. Pretty sure he just has 3 devices. Easy enough to have a desktop and laptop on the same desk, and then phone post. Or something similar.

>>52667031
>>52667045
But BATTies are so retarded, they interpreted this as meaning BAT will hit a minimum of $40
> The math that gets us to a $40+ BAT within 2 years - BATTie fag 2 years ago
> tl;dr: BAT "value" may increase by 2,000x within two years, whereas $40 per token is only a 100x increase. Believable?

Yup. BAT has a great business model.

the only thing they've tried to build themselves is self-serve and they couldn't even do that. wonder whose OS they'll buy kek

That webm is fucking huge

NIGGER COIN.

by the way can anyone explain to me why the fuck I am seeing ads on this website now? What is this fucking bullshit? The entire point of this fucking browser was to block the fucking ads

>>52669235
Well, at the very least, spamming the same copypasta over and over isn't my style. You're not going to get any interaction that way, as it doesn't accomplish anything.

Similarly, becoming a jannie just to nuke threads is very low IQ. There's more effective ways to wipe out threads that take much less effort. But the entire board has become infested with the most retarded jannies imaginable.

Anyone who takes the vaccine is a conspiracy theorist. They believe that some scam liquid in a needle is better than your bodies natural response. Vaxxers should be fucking banned on social media and their assets seized.

people still unironically own this 2017 sack of shit?

"The Sunk Cost Fallacy describes our tendency to follow through on an endeavor if we have already invested time, effort, or money into it, whether or not the current costs outweigh the benefits."

Me owning BAT basically.

>>52669970
I’m a deli Jew. I’m like Meyer Lansky in his prime (I’m the type of kike you don’t like but I’m the kike you need) and BAT is the only coin I hold. Anecdotal, but it’s the only token that makes sense and the only crypto app I actually use and by use I mean I use it every single fucking day. In fact, I’m using it right now. I know for a fact I’m not the only jew that feels this way.

>dcg holds bat

>>52669322
Use the custom ad block function, it works perfectly. Just as good as with an adblock plugin.
The ads on 4chan are not that obtrusive, but it`s very easy to block them.
The feature is also useful to get rid of annoying elements, sometimes even mitigate paywalls if the site has weak design.

>>52671185
We know.

>>52662350
I hold BAT, it just is one of the best coins

>>52671269
it`s super useful

Something I've slowly realized is that BAT holders are much more to blame for BAT's constant depressingly and horribly shitty price action than anyone at Brave ever was. Even the original LINK holders memed their token into a fucking twitter bot army

BAT holders just buy and whine. They barely create anything, very few even code, they don't create additional use cases or fun ways to use BAT. Check the BATproject reddit if you think I'm wrong, or any of these threads

>>52663012
Okay vaxie

>>52671269
On mobile dumbass. On desktop I use ublock in conjunction with brave

Faggots ITT as per usual. Shame BAT performed the worst compared to the BTC, ETH, and DOGE in my portfolio but oh well still gonna slurp these prices while i can.
Anyone who went in 100% on BAT was a fucking mad man.

>>52671401
Largely I agree. Barely anyone ever shills it. 88k batproject reddit memeber and often there will be less than 100 mentions of $BAT per day on twitter is common. Very few people shill it.

>>52671720
You'd think bagholding would motivate people to go shill their bags and try to create something out of nothing. Or even just fucking create useful communities to help other bagholders

nope, it's just a bunch of whiney pajeets crying and screeching at Brave. It's pathetic

>>52671401
Because we’re a bunch of poor pajeets trying to run BAT farms in the back of 7/11. Most of use don’t care about the price as long as we can get more BAT every month

>>52671763
>You'd think bagholding would motivate people to go shill their bags and try to create something out of nothing. Or even just fucking create useful communities to help other bagholders
We've tried that dumbass. There's only so much the community can do in regards to shilling something when the team won't give it any fucking utility or work on it at all

>>52671876
>>52671586
every one of your 10 posts in this thread is so angry, you're in a bad place and you either need to find something else in life or shill BAT harder because right now you're doing an awful job at it

>There's only so much the community can do in regards to shilling something

100% absolute blatantly false and LINK is the only proof you need. LINK was shilled to $50 and there's absolutely no other explanation. BAT community has done a poor job getting the word out there and that's the truth. I mostly blame the OG BAT holders, the original whales. They were fucking cowards. the original LINK holders weren't afraid of the SEC or anybody, they pulled all the strings they could to make that coin moon and look what happened

>>52667045
>privacy
Privacy is based, normies can't relate this.

>>52671763
It motivated me. I skilled the shit out of it for months, made 30+ memes probably. And it was kind of fun. I put in the effort because I strongly believe stuff like that can have a cascading effect. You never know who you'll influence or how. Even if it isn't you directly influencing them.

On the reverse side I think all the negative BAT spam in these threads has a larger effect than most people here acknowledge. He's doing great job fudding only because he is consistent. Everyone who randomly decides to look into BAT and will see a seemingly well thought out FUD although a lot of it doesn't hold up under close inspection it muddies the waters. The strength is in how persistent he is.

>>52672336
I like your effort and your rationalism. You're one of the good ones

>>52664620
You can just make sure to take advantage of the bear market and also keep your assets in self custody.

>>52671876
Utility is key, that is why I only buy assets with real life applications like identity management, defi etc rather than some token that does not provide any real life solution

Someday we will have our day BATbros... someday...

anything on the call today?

28k more to go on gemini before it hits a record low on tokens held on the exchange. They will probably refill and then when payouts hit then even more will come off.

>>52673964
Exchange supply doesn’t matter as much anymore with all these DEX protocols
