In episode 145, we're excited to welcome Luke Mulks, VP of Business Operations at Brave and Basic Attention Token, an ecosystem of software dedicated to protecting user privacy and rebuilding the internet by putting power back in the hands of users. We discuss how blockchain can built a safer, more user-driven internet, Brave's success in onboarding millions of users to crypto, creating an accessible user experience in Web3, and much more.--Three Key Takeaways--A key step in building a user-first internet is creating accessible tools that are meeting internet users where they are at. In the case of Brave, they recognized that billions of individuals use internet browsers that are operated for-profit by extracting user data and selling it to the highest bidder. By creating a familiar and accessible browser, it's an excellent way to onboard individuals to Web3.By releasing Basic Attention Token (BAT) as a cryptocurrency, as opposed to going with a traditional rewards programs, it ensures decentralization by putting ownership in the hands of holders, while preventing the company behind the token from having too much control, including the ability to arbitrarily stop the program or release more tokens. By going with a cryptocurrency, it also opens the door for future use cases and applications that come with smart contracts.Web3 has a long way to go towards creating an accessible UI/UX to onboard the next billion users. To address this, it's important to not overcomplicate Web3, and make it easy to begin engaging in the space through tools individuals use every day. It's also important to embrace competition, including a multi-chain future where different projects find their niche in creating a more accessible UI/UX.--Full shownotes with links available at--https://www.cryptoaltruism.org/blog/crypto-altruism-podcast-episode-145-brave-bat-building-a-user-first-internet-powered-by-web3--Support us with a Fiat or Crypto contribution--Learn more at cryptoaltruism.org/supportus--This episode was recorded on Zencastr!--Interested in starting your own podcast?

What if you got paid for surfing the web? An explanation of BAT (Basic Attention Token) Welcome to the Cryptohunt Jam, where we spend one minute a day explaining crypto. In plain English. Today, we'll present you with an intriguing new way to look at the internet: What if YOU got paid for surfing the web? Sounds ridiculous, doesn't it? In a world where big tech companies not only steal your data, but also make money selling it to advertisers, you never see a single cent. In fact, they do all that to sell YOU something. Yet there is browser that promises the opposite: Brave. It looks and feels just like Chrome or Safari, but with a twist: At its core, it wants to protect your privacy by aggressively blocking trackers and advertisements. And there is a big twist: You can get paid in Brave's "Basic Attention Token", short BAT, when you accept ads. You are literally getting paid for your attention, hence the name. It's the dream of Web3 proponents: Turn the business models of big tech on their heads. But is it going to work in the long run? We think there is a good chance. Ad blockers, VPNs, and consumer laws are already aggressively clamping down on ads, giving big tech less access to your data whether they want it or not. And when you look at Brave's business model, it is really not so different from Google: Brave sells their advertisers access to your screen instead of just being the browser in between. The difference? You control the show and get in on the action. This podcast is produced by Cryptohunt.it, the easiest place to learn crypto.
