I keep getting less and less BAT rewards now compare to years past..

Thanks for sharing that website! I usually just go to the Brave website for updates...I wonder if Brave/BATUSD can capitalize on what Germany is doing against Google? I thought that I read previously of Brave getting involved in helping to break up Google's reported anticompetitive pratices...

Germany Targets Google Market Power in Expansion of Tech Rules
May 25 2021 - 08:51AM
Dow Jones News
By Sam Schechner

Germany's competition regulator is investigating whether Google is dominant enough to be subject to the country's new digital-competition law, broadening its efforts to brandish new powers against companies including Amazon.com Inc. and Facebook Inc.

Germany's Federal Cartel Office said Tuesday that it has opened a probe into whether Google, the main unit of Alphabet Inc., is of "paramount significance for competition across markets." That designation allows the regulator to impose changes to a dominant digital company's business practices under a law passed in January.

The investigation follows similar probes the Cartel Office has opened in recent months against Amazon and Facebook, seeking similar designations. Under the new law, German regulators can order companies it finds to be of paramount importance to cease certain practices deemed anticompetitive through a faster procedure than traditional competition enforcement.

Google "could be considered to be of paramount significance for competition across markets," given the products it offers, said Andreas Mundt, the president of the Cartel Office. "It is often very difficult for other companies to challenge this position of power."

"People choose Google because it's helpful, not because they're forced to, or because they can't find alternatives," a Google spokeswoman said, adding that the company will cooperate with the Cartel Office.

Amazon said it would cooperate with the Cartel Office, and pointed to its investments in Germany. Facebook didn't immediately comment.

Germany's push puts the country on the forefront of a new trend in efforts to curb the power of big tech giants. Pushed by competition specialists and activists, policy makers are increasingly seeking new laws that are aimed to ensure that new tech rivals can emerge to challenge bigger companies in the industry -- rather than relying on traditional, lengthy competition investigations.

The European Union in December proposed a bill that could force digital platforms designated as gatekeepers to refrain from some potentially anticompetitive actions, such as promoting their own products over those of competitors. The U.K. plans legislation empowering a new digital-competition unit to enforce codes of conduct for companies that dominate strategic digital markets. China, too, has been using competition rules as part of its tech crackdown.

The new German law, passed in January, would likewise allow the country's competition regulator to order companies it deems to be of paramount significance to stop certain activities, such as preferencing their own services or impeding the entry of competitors into a market through use of data.

In parallel with the investigation into Google's market power, the Cartel Office said Tuesday that it has also opened an investigation into Google's data processing terms, and whether consumers have "sufficient choice as to how Google will use their data." A spokesman for the office said the second probe could use the designation from the first to impose remedies.

The Google spokeswoman said, "German consumers have enormous choice online and we give people simple controls to manage their information and limit the use of personal data."

The Cartel Office says it also has previous competition probes open into Amazon, including whether it is influencing the prices of third-party sellers on its platform using algorithms. The Cartel Office said last week that if it finds the new law applies to Amazon, it could potentially use it to impose remedies on the company. Amazon declined to comment on the specifics of the investigations.

When it comes to Facebook, the regulator said in January that it will investigate whether it can use the new powers to impose remedies in an investigation it had opened in December. That investigation involves what the Cartel Office described as linkage between Facebook's Oculus virtual-reality products and its social media platform.

Agreed. Like stocks, crypto currencies will always have a good percentage of novice investors that base their buying and selling by following the herd. No analysis.

Unstoppable Domains and Brave to Provide Millions of Users Access to the Decentralized Web

SAN FRANCISCO — May 13, 2021 — Blockchain domain name provider Unstoppable Domains today announced a collaboration with privacy-oriented web browser Brave that enables native browser support for the crypto domain name company. With the latest Brave browser update, Brave users on desktop and Android platforms have access to 30,000 decentralized websites and 700,000 blockchain domain names registered with Unstoppable Domains.

“We are excited to work with Unstoppable Domains to enable decentralized DNS to a wider audience. At Brave, we see Web3 as a stepping stone to the future of digital ownership and decentralization,” said Brian Bondy, co-founder and CTO of Brave. “Unstoppable Domains was a natural fit for us, giving our users access to the decentralized web with the ability to visit any .crypto domain name. From registering .crypto domains to hosting an NFT art gallery, to sending and receiving crypto, the possibilities are limitless for Brave users.”

Brave Becomes First Browser to Offer Native IPFS Integration

Brave Integrates .Crypto Blockchain Domains, Expanding Access to Web 3.0
Brave users can access 30,000 decentralized sites and 700,000 blockchain domain names.

[Investors3]

Unstoppable Domains’ .crypto websites now available via Brave browser
HELEN PARTZ
6 HOURS AGO

In contrast with traditional domains stored on behalf of users by custodians like Google Domains, .crypto domains are stored in crypto wallets.

Major privacy-focused browser Brave is the latest browser to integrate support for decentralized domains by blockchain domain name provider Unstoppable Domains.

Brave announced Thursday that its browser now provides native support for the crypto domain name company, allowing users to seamlessly access ".crypto" domains via desktop and Android applications.

The new feature unlocks access to 30,000 decentralized websites and more than 700,000 blockchain domain names registered with Unstoppable Domains. Through the integration, the Brave browser is supporting a decentralized network not relying on the traditional Domain Name System, which is often associated with privacy issues and other risks like hijacking, denial-of-service attacks and phishing attacks.

A Brave representative told Cointelegraph that the new browser integration uses Cloudflare's DNS over HTTPS method to resolve Unstoppable Domains by default. The integration can be also configured to resolve over the Ethereum blockchain in the Brave settings, as Brave co-founder and chief technology officer Brian Bondy noted. “There is an additional setting which can only be set from settings displayed below named Ethereum. When this is set, the resolution will occur on the Ethereum blockchain directly and the page will result in an IPFS CID,” he explained.

In contrast with traditional domains that are stored on behalf of the user by custodians like GoDaddy or Google Domains, .crypto domains are stored in cryptocurrency wallets. When a user claims a blockchain domain, it is minted as a nonfungible token, or NFT, on the Ethereum blockchain, providing full ownership and control. Such domains can also point to content hosted on the InterPlanetary File System or to cryptocurrency addresses, simplifying the process of sending and receiving crypto on wallets and exchanges like Coinbase.

“Unstoppable Domains was a natural fit for us, giving our users access to the decentralized web with the ability to visit any .crypto domain name. From registering .crypto domains to hosting an NFT art gallery, to sending and receiving crypto, the possibilities are limitless for Brave users,” Bondy said.

“We see Web3 as the future of the internet, where everyone has ownership and control of their own content. Brave’s integration with Unstoppable Domains means easy access to the decentralized internet without the hassle of browser extensions or custom DNS settings,” Unstoppable Domains co-founder and CEO Matthew Gould noted.

As previously reported by Cointelegraph, .crypto domains have already been available on major mainstream browsers since February through Cloudflare's integration. In April, crypto-friendly web browser Opera expanded its .crypto support to browsers on all platforms including iOS, Android, Windows, Mac and Linux.

Download Brave browser and you can start earning BAT or you can buy it at Coinbase or any other exchanges..

[AFvet86]

I am using coinbase. It doesn't look like I can get those using it. What do you use?

[Investors3]

The Brave Browser uses BAT to reward publishers and advertisers, in addition to potential customers that choose to view ads...I figured that new investors of BAT might take the time to read older articles, so i just referred to the February article, where the company had reached the milestone of 25 Million. Welcome to this message board and I hope that Stockvaper is correct that we will be a major competitor of Google; especially in price!

Here is the link for the February article that explains the 25 Million users...

[AFvet86]

Thank you. Never heard of VET but it is definitely on my radar now.

[lakingsphan0427]

Welcome aboard AFvet.. I love my BAT and have been invested here for few years.. Got all my tokens from $0.09-0.12 and haven't sold a single token.

AFvet you should look into Vechain (VET) it blends well with your moniker :)

I've been in cryptos since 2014 and I think VET is by far have the biggest potential next to LINK.. That project is an awesome project and still dirt cheap.. I really think VET will be the top 5 cryptos or worst case scenario top 10.. I've added more last night now own 54Kin which 49k of those bought at 0.0889..

Atleast put VET on your radar..

[AFvet86]

Daily fluctuations don't bother me. I got btc @15k a few years ago and watched it go down.
I use Brave every day.

[stockvaper]

Good job.... Don't let the daily fluctuations scare you. BAT has done very well in the long run and will continue. It's the next Google, but without offensive ads, loss of privacy and technical tyranny.

BAT, last 3 months:

14% of Americans Own Crypto Right Now – Here’s Who’s Actually Doing It Right

...the number of crypto investors is set to double this year, according to the report, that profile could change. Today, more than 21.2 million adults, or about 14% of the U.S population, own cryptocurrency such as Bitcoin or Ethereum. Gemini’s research revealed that about 13% of those polled shared intentions to purchase digital assets within the next 12 months...

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/study-reveals-crypto-biggest-investors-132102315.html

[stockvaper]

BAT's gone up 526% so far this year. (5 months).
If it matched that gain in the next 7 months it would be at $6.94 at YE.

For every $1.32 you invest now, you'd see $6.94 at YE.


Math shows your path to wealth Grasshopper.

Hell yes!

Brave is now available for download on the Epic Games Store for Windows users, making it seamless for gamers and streamers to experience the Web like never before.

In addition, Brave supports streamers and content creators with Brave Rewards. Brave users are rewarded for their attention when they opt in to view privacy-preserving ads, and they can seamlessly support their favorite gamers and content creators via the integrated wallet in the browser. There are currently over 1 million Brave Creators. Brave has also established strategic partnerships with Splinterlands and Gala Games to provide additional rewards and value to users through gameplay, tournaments, and collaborative NFTs (non-fungible tokens) with the Basic Attention Token.

“We are excited to build this relationship with Epic Games and continue to expand our user base of more than 29 million into the gaming community,” said Jan Piotrowski, Vice President of Business Development at Brave. “Brave is on a mission to enhance online user experience, and through the Epic Games Store, we are able to offer our fast, privacy-oriented browser in a convenient and accessible way.”

This note presents lessons for all publishers based on six months of data from Dutch publisher NPO, after it removed 3rd party tracking.

Additional revenue data from the Dutch publisher NPO reveals the real-world impact on the revenues of websites of various sizes of removing 3rd party adtech and tracking.

As a previous note outlined, NPO removed third party tracking from its websites at the start of 2020, and sold advertising exclusively by using contextual targeting. The previous note revealed that NPO and its sales house, Ster, enjoyed a leap in revenue as a result.

This update adds the month of June 2020, allowing a six month view of the publisher’s revenue increase, and slightly updates and increases the previously published figures for the first five months of 2020.

Good news! Also it appears as though Bat is recovering nicely after yesterdays panic.

BAT huge news!! Most successful token!

$5 we run!!


Basic Attention Token (BAT)

The devopers of BAT note that it’s crypto-asset for “the new Internet economy.” They pointed out that the $330 billion digital advertising industry is “failing users, publishers and advertisers.” The Basic Attention Token aims to solve the “endemic inefficiencies and privacy violations hobbling the digital ad industry.”

BAT has seen “stunning” results since its integration into the Brave browser’s global private ad platform: 25.4 million monthly active users, 9.2 million daily active users, 1 million verified creators accepting BAT, “millions of wallets created, thousands of ad campaigns with leading brands, and growing utility in the most innovative names in blockchain gaming,” according to the Basic Attention Token website. The results “make BAT one of the most, if not the most, successful alt–coin projects to date.”

Good day to use the Brave Browser. Google is slower than trying to run underwater lately.

(I suspect they need more distributed storage again).
