Hey guys :) Today I’ve got a full list of partnerships and collaborations for one of the most promising projects in crypto – the Brave Browser and Basic Attention Token (BAT) cryptocurrency.

In this piece, I dive into each and every one of Brave & BAT’s partnerships to give you all the juicy details worth knowing about.

Before we dive in, I’ll give you a quick summary of BAT & Brave:

Brave offers its users a fast, privacy-oriented web browser, combined with a blockchain-based digital advertising platform powered by the Basic Attention Token (BAT) cryptocurrency.

Brave Browser users benefit from a better, private, secure, less cluttered, and faster web experience and earn BAT tokens just for browsing the web. Additionally, Brave users can tip their favorite content creators with BAT and opt-in to privacy-preserving Brave Ads to earn more.

Overall, Brave & BAT are revolutionizing the way publishers and content creators monetize their content while providing a better browsing experience for users.

That being said, I hope you enjoy the comprehensive list of Brave & BAT partnerships below. Oh, and if you haven’t seen my previous partnership articles on Hydro (HYDRO) and Tezos (XTZ), be sure to check those out as well.

Hope you enjoy!
