Why is so Brave different from other browsers?

It is fast - very fast

Brave has probably given me one of the most awesome browsing experience have ever had. Even though it is built on Chromium, I’ve had astonishing results browsing compared to Chrome.

My daily Browser went from Chrome to Brave without hesitation. And because Brave is built on top of Chromium, all the plugins I used to have on Chrome are compatible with it.

High anonymity and security

The Brave’s Shield is probably one of the best options out there to block Ads, Cookies, unwanted script, and all.

It allows me to block all the unwanted things that happen behind curtains that we don’t see but don’t want. It gives me a choice on how much information I want the website to have.

Brave introduced an Ethereum based token that rewards user attention. It can be safely exchanged between users, publishers, and advertisers.

If a User accepts to see ads, every time he sees an ad, he will receive a certain amount of BAT Token.
The Publisher will receive a significant portion of the ad revenue as BAT Token.
A User can choose to give some of the BAT Tokens that he earned to a publisher that he wants to support.
A Publisher can also give BAT Tokens to another User or Publisher to promote his work.

Here is an excellent video about the BAT (Basic Attention Token) to fully understand it by the creator of the Mozilla Foundation, Firefox, and Javascript.
