$ (BAT) Basic Attention Token

One thing I don't understand about BAT; what stops it from being farmed? If you have multiple accounts on one router, will they all get BAT? If so, that seems incredibly, incredibly exploitable.

Unironically this. I regret all the BAT I had to sell to make ends meet, but that's always been the story with me and crypto.

Why are you so poor all the time? Can't you just, like, auction off KF to the feds or whoever wants the digital equivalent of chaggot

Because I have to pay for Internet infrastructure that a website this size doesn't ordinarily have to pay for.

I receive zero information about the donor, so it's hard to use it to verify donations for true and honest.

Anti fraud is part of Brave Foundations job. People definitely try.

Had a pretty chunk of mobile BAT built up and decided to throw it out this way. Thanks for the browser suggestion ages ago, my PC browser BAT actually bought me a decent dinner yesterday after it broke 2 dollars. Fun fun fun.

I've always donated my ad viewing BAT to Null, not a shit ton(sub 100), but I hope some of it got to stay in his wallet to start pumping.

I did however throw my coof bucks into BAT, Not as early as I'd like, but under 80 cents, so I've made a nice profit already.

You get BAT based on how many ads you see, and it only displays ads while you're using the computer.

There's also a limit to how many Brave installations you can link to Uphold, but that limitation is set and enforced by Uphold, not Brave.

I'd be grateful if someone more knowledgeable here wrote down a babby's first guide to this whole thing, since I feel that may be a worthy investment, but I'm a complete and utter noob in crypto who kinda sorta learnt how stocks work leass than a year ago and I feel like a kindergartener who walked into a corporate meeting. Like, if I wanted to buy 10 bucks worth of BATs with a card and just see what comes of it, is it strictly necessary to verify my identity with photos and everything on some website I've never used before? Or post an already existing guide, I'd be much obliged.

It's easier in my experience to just go the kyc route because the wallet that Brave uses for the in-browser rewards (Uphold) already requires it to withdraw and Coinbase I was already verified on, plus earned $9 in free BAT back when it was dirt cheap just for setting up a coinbase wallet app on my phone. But if you absolutely loathe the idea of KYC I believe Kucoin exchange still sticks to the "answer some yes or no questions and we'll leave you alone" approach to KYC. Have never had to submit any ID docs there to trade or withdraw.

If you decide to just go ahead and use KYC I recommend Coinbase since it's well established (they're looking to get listed on the stock market, doubt they'll be doing a rug pull anytime soon), and if you do go with Coinbase, be sure to use Coinbase Pro (all approved CB accounts have access to pro, it's basically just a slightly more in depth market trading side of the site, that comes with significantly lower fees). 0.5% fee on CB pro and you can add funds to your CB account from bank and immediately trade with Pro. Is nice.
 
BATs appeal is that it makes digital marketing efficient. Something that is super inefficient right now. Filecoin is a crypto that also works to make an inefficient internet industry more efficient. Data storage. And that bitch is worth 70 bucks. data storage does not hold a candle to what digital advertising is worth. The final form of BAT could be something else.

Thanks for response, but it looks like this particular wallet is unavailable in my country, bless the Eastern Europe. Looks like I'll have to do some proper deep research, after all.
