Well it's not in my habits to post more than one or two posts per day (even less some times), it's pretty rare actually, but i cant withstand that inner longing to write about something I read!

I was Blabbering around with my smartphone when i saw a very interesting publish about Brave and @trumpman's favourute Token BAT. To be more specific, Brave with it last update, partners with Uphold to launch a wallet that users will be able to transfer their BAT tokens out of their BAT Rewards and convert them to many digital assets and fiat currencies! Till now Brave users was able to contribute their tokens only to online publishers, but now with this partnership that will change.

Users have the option to connect to their Uphold account and be directly rewarded for their attention while browsing with Brave. They can otherwise store BAT earned from Brave Rewards in the wallet.

Well that's pretty cool if you think about it (still in Greece the Brave Rewards isn't available but that's another story), now you can transfer that rewards to uphold and exchange it for BTC, ETH or even Euros and USD, being able to do the opposite filing your BAT wallet and contribute your tokens wherever you want, an actual use with no restrictions. That's great news for it's 7 million monthly active users and over 280,000 Verified Publishers of Brave browser, but also great to whole cryptocommunity!

In my humble opinion, it's a move to the right direction that facilitates it current users, giving also the opportunity to new users to explore and adapt with the amazing Blockchain world through a great, clean and very fast browser that reward it's users!

A quote of JP Thieriot sayings, CEO and co-founder of Uphold.

Brave has become the first crypto ecosystem to jump the chasm into mass market relevance. Nobody is even close. It’s a huge, noble and wildly relevant mission to take back an Internet that has made all of our proclivities, susceptibilities, and private information the central products of a few dominant players. Taking on the juggernauts might seem quixotic, but for the fact that Brave is driven by the inventor of JavaScript and the incredibly creative and talented team he’s assembled.

Once you complete the registation with Uphold, a Brave-branded BAT “card” will be created in your Uphold account and it will be directed to connect to your Brave browser to your Uphold BAT card. You will see also other cards that probably are ready to connect them, with a wallet for crypto assets and bank account or credit card for fiat currencies.

Brave does not store any identifying information about its users.
