Fork of Brave browser: here is the strategic idea of ​​Andrew Torba!

Brave Browser: what is it? The Brave Browser is a project conceived by Brave, well known in the crypto community for the BAT token see the BAT quote.

The Brave Browser aims to make its registered users earn BAT tokens through the display of ADS specific, depending on the different publishers active on that platform.

Recently, although not yet in Italy, another service has been activated, the Brave Rewards, which also allows internet users to view ADS and earn BAT tokens. Crypto communities often use this strategy, which is to give small wages to users for viewing different ADS.

Andrew Torba and his strategic idea

Andrew Peat, in August 2016 he had the brilliant idea of ​​creating the GAB, an alternative-type social network of the ultra-right type compared to Facebook and Twitter.

Its purpose is to create an innovative web platform that removes all forms of censorship so that discussions and comments on different websites can be started, built and completed, without taking any risk related to privacy or anything else.

Like Brave, this platform, with the increase of users and participants in the discussions, also intends to offer its users remuneration linked to ADS views.

The founder of the platform, in addition to having created it, also created a Fork by Brave Browser which has the task of promoting the adoption of the GAB. Since wages are not high, but rather low, Andrew Torba decided to create a Lightning Network wallet in which to deposit Bitcoin, instead of creating a wallet for BAT.

What is the GAB actually for?

The idea of Andrew Peat was brilliant, because he managed to create the dissenter. It is a plugin designed specifically for those sites that do not allow you to comment and create discussions. Thanks to Dissenter, this is now possible too!

The Brave Browser replaces the GAB

Unfortunately, however, this plugin is no longer found in the Mozilla and Google store, as it has been removed. In this regard, to compensate for this absence, the company has specifically created the Brave Browser.

It is a totally new product able to "circumvent" in some way the different limits imposed by both Google and Firefox. A positive feature of Brave Browser is theOpen Source: this is a peculiarity that makes it totally modifiable and reusable by anyone who uses it.

The first change: the Bitcoin wallet

Several changes have been made, the first ever concerns the removal of the support a BAT (Basic Attention Token), which is nothing but the very first coin used by Brave Browser.

BAT has been replaced by a portfolio Bitcoin, who gets along with the Lightning Network system. A certain rivalry as well as hostility has grown between the two teams, to the point that the founder of Brave Browser, Brendan Eich, wanted to accuse Andrew Torba and his team for having created a type of fork that he defines as "parasite".
