You Can Now Move Brave Browser Rewards On-Chain With a Solana Wallet

Brave, the company behind the privacy-focused Brave browser, is bringing on-chain Solana payments with its long-time Brave Rewards program, the company announced on Thursday. The on-chain Solana feature, Brave said, will allow Brave browser users to transfer BAT tokens from their local machines to a self-custody Solana wallet, without involving a centralized exchange. “We chose Solana as the ideal network for the launch of on-chain Brave Rewards given its high transaction speed and low fees, whi...

Brave's New Image and Video Search Doesn't Rely on Google or Bing

Privacy-focused internet browser firm Brave announced on Thursday the launch of its latest feature—a custom image and video search feature that doesn’t rely on Google or Microsoft’s Bing to serve up media. Brave says search results will now only serve images and video results from its own index, removing the need for users to choose between Bing or Google for such assets when using the crypto-friendly web browser. “It was always our intent to be 100% independent from Big Tech, but we built this...

Brave Users Have a New Way to Cash Out Their BAT After Viewing Ads

Privacy browser Brave has long believed that if web users are subjected to ads, they should be compensated. While using Brave, each ad that customers agree to watch nets them a small amount of Basic Attention Token (BAT), Brave's own cryptocurrency. You can recirculate that BAT to content providers you enjoy or, being the greedy crypto user you no doubt are, you can trade it for cash or other assets. A new integration makes both easier. Gemini, the crypto exchange founded by Cameron and Tyler Wi...

Brave Is Leaking Browsing History From Anonymous Tor Browser

Brave, a Chromium-based, privacy-first browser that integrates the anonymous Tor web browser, has been leaking private .onion addresses to domain name system providers. Tor obscures users’ web browsing activity by bouncing web traffic across a global network of relays. That makes it near-impossible to trace a user’s web history, making the browser a perfect home for anyone in need of privacy: mostly activists, dark web drug barons and hackers. But the bug, addressed in a beta and soon-to-be-...
