I've been using Brave for a while, so if anyone has any questions about it, I'd love to answer them.

This is an accurate description of it, but Brave also allows you to earn money. Brave blocks all normal advertisements by default. It then instead sends you a push notification style advertisement in the bottom right of your screen that you can click away in a second. You get paid for this advertisement whether you click it or not because why the hell shouldn't you get paid for viewing advertisements, and other companies get it instead? I'm the one viewing it.

That aside, I download Brave on all of my devices and created/connected an Uphold wallet in March and got my first payout in February. I'm sitting at $27.61 CAD today for just clicking away the occasional advertisement - again not even looking at it.

I think this is the main thing with Brave. If I am getting this much money in less than a year from nothing at all, imagine what advertising companies are getting when you don't get a cut of the profit yourself and they're milking millions.
