Brave Crosses 25 Million Daily Active Users

Privacy-focused internet browser Brave has hit the 25-million-milestone of daily active users. 

Releasing the news on Twitter as he does each month, Brave’s CEO Brendan Eich, noted that the number was a new all-time-high and was up 4% from December.

Eich also noted that monthly active users (MAUs) had crossed 59.21 million (3.8%).

Brave offers users a free, privacy-focused browser which offers opt-in advertisements in that reward the user in the company’s utility token Basic Attention Token (BAT). In short, unlike most browsers, Brave will actually pay you to use the software.

And although the company is growing significantly, the growth has not been reflected in the company’s native token.

While much of the crypto market is in an upswing, BAT is down more than 27% over the past year and is now out of the top 100 tokens by market cap.

Our take

No affiliation or anything, but if you haven’t tried Brave browser yet, we suggest to give it a whirl.

The best feature is definitely the built in ad-blocker. Also cool that you can slowly accumulate BAT, if you’re into that.

Honestly, we just value it cause the founders value your privacy. The Brave team is far more trustworthy than Google, Safari, etc. 🛡️
