It is created by Brave Software, Inc., the parent organization, which was founded by now CEO Brendan Eich. Eich was also the co-founder of the Mozilla Foundation and served as Mozilla&#x2019;s chief technical officer and later the chief executive officer. He along with Brian Bondy founded Brave Software on 28 May 2015. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shortly after, on 20<sup>th<\/sup> January 2016, Brave Software launched the first version of Brave Browser. After a series of experiments and updates, Brave launched its first stable release, version 1.0 on 13 November 2019. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By then, it has a whopping 8.7 million monthly active users overall. And in November 2020, Brave reported having 20 million active monthly users and in September 2021, it passed nearly 36 million monthly active users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_What_Is_the_Main_Intent_of_Brave_Browser\"><\/span>2. What Is the Main Intent of Brave Browser?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It is a privacy-first browser with default settings that disable online ads and website trackers. It comes with a multitude of privacy controls, where you can block ads, trackers, fingerprinting, and even enable HTTPS all the time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Brave Browser is available for Windows, Mac, Android, and iOS. While most browsers just throw around ads for users, Brave has a unique reward system for users to view ads and it rewards them using a cryptocurrency called BAT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Is_Brave_Browser_Chinese\"><\/span>3. Is Brave Browser Chinese?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>No, Brave Browser is owned by Brave Software Inc., a company based in the United States of America.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Is_Brave_Browser_Spyware_or_Malware\"><\/span>4. <strong>Is Brave Browser Spyware or Malware?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Brave Browser is not a spyware or a browser hijacker\/malware of any kind. As per what Brave Claims, it is nothing but a safe-to-use web browser built on the Chromium engine. Brave has also been quite transparent over the concerns of Brave being called spyware as all of their code is <strong>open source. <\/strong>They also help in auditing the source and verifying their binaries on the Debian Linux platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_How_does_Brave_Earn_Money\"><\/span>5. <strong>How does Brave Earn Money?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As of August 2016, Brave accumulated nearly $7 Million in angel investments, which included VC firms like Peter Theil&#x2019;s founders&#8217; fund, Propel Venture Partners, Pantera Capital, and Digital Currency Group. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In November 2019, Brave launched <strong>Brave Ads <\/strong>which is an Ad network wherein Brave software takes in 30% of the ad revenue and the rest of it is given away to the user. Brave uses a unique business model to generate revenue through BAT &#x2013; Basic Attention Token. When they launched BAT, through the ICO (Initial Coin Offering), they were able to amass $35 Million. Post this, they have not raised any funding through investors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Brave also makes money in the following ways:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Affiliate commission through links on the homepage.<\/li><li>Brave also has a shopping deals page called Brave Offers. It also generates revenue through this website, through commission from sales.<\/li><li>Brave VPN and Brave Talk Premium are paid add-ons and attract revenue.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Is_Brave_Browser_Free_to_Use\"><\/span>6. <strong>Is Brave Browser Free to Use?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Apart from paid add ons like Brave Talk Premium and Brave VPN, <strong>Brave Browser is completely free to use.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_What_Extensions_Does_Brave_Support\"><\/span>7. <strong>What Extensions Does Brave Support?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Brave Browser is built on Chromium, the same engine that Google Chrome is built on. So the good news is that you can get all the extensions that you get on the Chrome extension store on Brave Browser as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8_Is_Brave_Better_than_Google_Chrome\"><\/span><strong>8. Is Brave Better than Google Chrome?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As per the official statement by Brave Browser &#x2013; &#x201C;<em>With 3x faster page load times than Google Chrome, 133% less memory usage, and up to one hour more battery life, Brave is the browser that&#x2019;s built to perform.&#x201D;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, when it comes to safety and privacy, Brave offers much more than Google Chrome. You get Brave Shields which blocks fingerprinting and avoids trackers on websites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"9_Does_Brave_Browser_Sell_Data_to_Advertisers\"><\/span>9. <strong>Does Brave Browser Sell Data to Advertisers?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Brave does not have access to identifiable browsing data from the user. According to Brave, All the advertisement-related data is completely anonymous and is only used for accounting and reporting, but this data cannot be backtracked or mapped to any identifiable user.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"10_What_is_the_Brave_Rewards_Program\"><\/span>10. <strong>What is the Brave Rewards Program?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"604\" src=\"https:\/\/browsertouse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/7-1024x604.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9883\" srcset=\"https:\/\/browsertouse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/7-1024x604.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/browsertouse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/7-300x177.jpg 300w, https:\/\/browsertouse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/7-768x453.jpg 768w, https:\/\/browsertouse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/7.jpg 1109w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Brave has a unique incentive program for users to watch advertisements. Instead of just throwing in ads without consent and just &#x2018;productizing&#x2019; the user, it gives them the option to switch on optional adverts that pay them in Basic Attention Tokens (BAT) money for their &#x201C;attention&#x201D;. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Users may then submit donations in the form of tips to websites and content providers who accept BAT, with the option to keep the BAT they earned. The BAT Reward feature is quite a highlight of Brave Browser.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s how to set up and<a href=\"https:\/\/browsertouse.com\/blog\/6337\/enable-brave-rewards-to-earn-bat\/\"> enable Brave Rewards Program<\/a> and start earning BAT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"11_What_platforms_are_Brave_Rewards_available_for\"><\/span>11. <strong>What platforms are Brave Rewards available for?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/browsertouse.com\/blog\/8013\/set-brave-default-browser\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Brave Rewards are available<\/a> for Linux, macOS, and Windows.

Apple&#x2019;s guideline 3.1.1 prevents apps from allowing users to give or tip a person, company, or service unless it is purchased via an Apple in-app purchase. We hope to see some flexibility from Apple and allow Brave Rewards on iOS devices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"12_What_is_BAT_How_do_you_get_paid_in_BAT\"><\/span>12. <strong>What is BAT? How do you get paid in BAT?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Basic Attention Token(BAT) is a cryptocurrency token based on Ethereum, which forms the fundamentals of the Brave Browser business model. It is a cryptocurrency token based on the ERC-20 standard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>BAT&#x2019;s tokenomics revolves around three main parties &#8211; the user, creator, and advertiser. Advertisers must purchase and own BAT to show ads on the Brave Browser. These ads are then shown to the user, where the user then receives the BAT spent on the ad, with a 30% revenue going to Brave. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Users can then either resupply BAT back to the market by selling them and allowing them to be re-bought by advertisers, or they can choose to tip creators using Brave Auto Contribute. Where creators can now utilize or sell BAT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"13_How_to_use_BAT_as_real_money\"><\/span>13. <strong>How to use BAT as real money?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You can use BAT in two ways :<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Contribute BAT to creators:<\/strong> Using the auto contribute feature or by manual contribution, you can contribute BAT to your favorite content creators who have opted for the rewards program.<\/li><li><strong>Transfer BAT to wallet: <\/strong>You can also transfer BAT to a crypto wallet and then once you verify your wallet, you will be able to sell it in an exchange for a fiat currency hence using it as real money in the future.

On the Brave Rewards page, you can verify these wallets and transfer your BAT to these wallets. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"577\" src=\"https:\/\/browsertouse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Brave-wallet-link-1024x577.png\" alt=\"Verify Brave Wallet\" class=\"wp-image-6348\" srcset=\"https:\/\/browsertouse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Brave-wallet-link-1024x577.png 1024w, https:\/\/browsertouse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Brave-wallet-link-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/browsertouse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Brave-wallet-link-768x433.png 768w, https:\/\/browsertouse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Brave-wallet-link-1536x865.png 1536w, https:\/\/browsertouse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Brave-wallet-link.png 1562w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"14_How_do_you_earn_money_on_Brave_Browser\"><\/span>14. <strong>How do you earn money on Brave Browser?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some quick tips on how to <a href=\"https:\/\/browsertouse.com\/blog\/6400\/earn-money-with-brave-browser\/\">earn money on Brave Browser<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Earn BAT Using Brave Ads<\/strong>: As a Brave user, you can turn on Brave Ads to earn free BAT for getting ad notifications and surfing the web.

Similarly, users can also receive BAT token grants. These grants are available monthly and given to completely random users. You may receive a grant in your first month and not receive any for the next 6-7 months.

Shields is a feature in Brave Browser that protects your privacy by ensuring your usage is harder to track from site to site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Various websites include all kinds of trackers which can follow you across the web. Shields blocks this type of content that poses as &#x201C;trackers,&#x201D; keeping you safe while also speeding up your browsing experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Brave Shield protects the user through the following means:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Blocks most ads and the trackers that come with multiple websites.<\/li><li>Discards cookies other than the ones from the sites that are actually bring visited.<\/li><li>Makes your browser harder to recognize and follow without cookies.<\/li><li>Upgrades you to secure connections as and when websites support them.<\/li><li>Blocks malicious code and malicious sites.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>While the default settings on Shields provide you with solid protection without making it harder to browse. Additionally, you can fine-tune settings within the Shields panel.
