BAT - Basic Attention Token ICO (31-5-17)- Worth Investing?

[icohunter1024]

I like the sole idea behind this token. Today's internet is struggling against malicious ads that annoy users and track them having no mercy on anyone's privacy anymore. That coin aims to solve that and bring transparency to advertisers and also provide them with ads being displayed properly and in a way that won't bother the user but encourage him to click it.

The withdrawal of token from wallet is not available. How can I withdraw tokens and translate them to exchange address?

You mean from Brave browser?
I was able to transfer them to Bancor wallet

How do you do it? I do not see a window for withdrawal tokens. I can just refill my wallet in browser

Did you register here as publisher? https://publishers.basicattentiontoken.org/
May be you are using browser only as user.
After registering you need to create Uphold wallet, and then I received there few BATs because people installed Brave with my link
Apart from that even though my Youtube channel is about blockchain and cryptocurrencies nobody sent me even a cent))
Even when I asked to send a cent to test the system (and promised to return it)
But I think it works, as it worked with these bonus BAT which I withdrew to Bancor

What is Bat(BAT) Coin? - Everything you need to know

Digital advertising is adopted worldwide in every field which is also a great source of revenue for the organizations but currently, it has been monopolized by big firms like Facebook and Google. These organizations get the vast advantage of it as they hold approximately 73% of the market share of the total ad revenue globally.

Thus, to overcome this, Bat coin came into existence.

What exactly is Bat coin?

Bat stands for Basic Attention token. It is the blockchain-based digital advertising token which is running on Ethereum. Basically, Bat coin cuts the requirement of middlemen while doing advertising and it makes the advertising process more effective by paying users to view the ads and also publishers receive the revenue directly.

Bat coin was launched in March 2017. By ICO’s, they raised the fund of around $35 million within 30 seconds.

Their main goal is to fix the issue with current digital advertising system in which users are getting tracked without their knowledge and later that could be the reason of fraud due to which the publishers need to face major consequences.

The Team behind Bat coin

Brendan Eich is the founder and chief visionary of the Bat coin. Brendan is the person who created JavaScript and co-founded the Mozilla project leading to Firefox.

Apart from that, this team involves advisors named Zooko Wilcox, founder, and CEO of Zcash and Ankur Nandwani, product manager at Coinbase.

How does Bat coin work?

To use the BAT, the web browser named Brave is required which is created by the BAT development team. So, basically, it is based on Smart contracts and using which, the advertisers send ads to the users in a locked state with a certain token payment. After seeing that ad, the user will get some portion from the received token payment.

Moreover, in between, Brave browser also get some token payment and the final remaining token payment will be credited to the publisher who hosts the ad.

Bat can be used in the browser for premium articles, donations to providers and other kinds of data services.

Where to buy Bat coin?

It can be purchased within pairs with Bitcoin (BTC) from any of the exchanges like Bittrex, Binance and Liqui or it can also be paired with Ethereum.

Otherwise, a user can first purchase Bitcoins and later on it can receive BAT in exchange for those coins from the mentioned exchanges.

Once a user starts using the brave browser, he can receive those BAT and early users are being rewarded with up to 5 BAT.

Seems Mozilla may be having its hands involved in HoloToken:

BAT caught my basic attention lately, and I have been trying to understand the platform.  I will read a bit more about it before adding a bag.

[CoinCodex]

Civic partnered up with Brave browser to provide KYC servicers for the Brave's verified publishers.

[TucoRamirez]

Civic is pretty shitty.  Nice how you use one post with 2 links to your website under the guise of posting something BAT related.

[MrWhiteBites]

BAT in a good BUY Zone, should be plain sailing from here.

[clasico]

In this price, I think it's buy zone for BAT. if Btc showing good move, I mean not hit support level 6k. I think but will going up and up from here.

[COPARTT23]

BAT is a worthy project with a large audience that believes in it is almost the final product. Expect a listing on one of the largest Coinbass exchanges that is already a great achievement for the team

[jacafbiz]

BAT is just one of the few projects in the space that is doing things right, if 50% of projects in the space can deliver what BAT team has done, no one would be talking about adoption rate ad usage of these tokens, though there has been several questions asked about the utility of the platform but for me that is less worry as more people download and use it things will improve

You guys should check out Brave Browser, it's really awesome. Adblock is perfect and sites work way faster!

[Flodner]

Recently I received 19 BAT (somebody installed and used Brave with my link)
Also finally I was able to confirm my site http://cryptotexty.com/ as Brave publisher, (in past I wasn't able to do it, I confirmed only Youtube)
May be somebody can setup BAT payment for this site as for publisher?
Let's test it! And moreover site is about cryptocurrencies
I'm asking you to use some minimal amount (for example few cents), I'm just interested to test it

[bitsmola]

I think now is good time to buy BAT. I love use Brave, it is the Best browser!

[erwan]

Through the private and anonymous third-party ad-replacement system which Brave + BAT has developed. Please have a look at the introduction guide to BAT if you haven't already. reddit.com/r/BATProject/comments/7cr7yc/new_to_bat_read_this_introduction_to_basic/

I use it too, i just wish they used Lightning payments on Bitcoin instead of BAT.

This is the first I'm hearing of BAT but from what I have read about it I like the business model but only time will tell if they are legit or not. My advice would be be to research further and to see who is backing them up. Please be careful while investing in new coins as many of them have very interesting business model but are usually scams.
