Throughout 2018 I liquidated most of my ALT holdings into BTC, present portfolio mix sits around 90% BTC, 10% ALT. Recently started researching options to increase my ALT exposure by another 15-20% and after a few days i found myself depressed that despite the fact ALT investment options continue to proliferate on a daily basis, now numbering into the thousands, I did not find a single ALT that had enough meat on the bone where I felt comfortable reducing my BTC position to take position in an ALT. Not one ALT I researched where perceived risk/reward was such I could say in honesty reducing BTC investment by any percentage for (insert name here) ALT made sound financial sense. Fact, having been in ALTs since 2014, most of what I see now in 2019 (same as 2014) has me thinking putting my money into a pile and burning it would be the better investment, at least then I wouldn't need to suffer over an extended period of time waiting for inevitable (insert name here) ALT implosion, collapse & death spiral to 0. But yesterday happens and through discovering and installing Brave browser I come across BAT (Basic Attention Token). BAT checks all the boxes for me and if they continue to execute with high success on their business model potential positive returns in BAT seem exponential comparing against the other ALTS I've considered. I look at BAT & see through its integration with Brave the potential one day to stand toe to toe with a Google, Facebook, Youtube, et al. and not just stand, but win. I'm thinking I've found my next new ALT. But I have a problem in the duration & depth of my knowledge regarding BAT is super thin, I've known of but nothing about BAT or Brave until taking a deep dive into all things BAT these past 24 hrs., so pls if you got dirt on BAT help me out, gimme the goods, tell me what I missed, why it's pure guano, give good reasons I should let BAT fall off my investment radar. Not looking for opinions on other ALTs to invest, only opinions on why it should not be BAT. Side note - BAT investment yea or nay, I have found a new default browser for all my devices in Brave, if this is your first time hearing of it do yourself a favor and check it out for free download here ----> https://brave.com

OT - This is more a question of philosophy, not a follow-up to discussion in original post
If a thread for Basic Attention Token gets no attention, not even a token response, could you say forum is bASIC-resistant?

Honestly the way BAT is conducting their coin I am impressed. I actually have around 20% of my hodlings in BAT right now! Considering it's one of the few coins that coinbase will allow on their platform, and the fact that it has been 7X of it's current value means a lot. https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/basic-attention-token/ I will hodl BAT for years to come, I will love when it is worth $1+ hopefully one day reaching $10+ for being a high quality crypto!

Thanks? ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Brave for mobile is the best phone browser on the market, for desktop it needs some polishing. They are amazing products, but judigng by the token economics I don't think there's much room for growth.

Don't know much about BAT and am not even sure how i can earn it but i have been using brave browser for a while now. Its really cool and i love it's privacy and anti tracking features not forgetting the default search engine Duckduckgo ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) The availability of Tor browsing feature in it is a total win for me.

I know about BAT since the first day they launched their ICO and I remember how successful their ICO was, I never used the brave browser I just invested a little in it buying from exchanges, not in ICO phase, the team behind the project is really good it is for sure not a bad investment. Don't know much about BAT and am not even sure how i can earn it but i have been using brave browser for a while now.
I think you can earn BAT while using the browser however you are not allowed to withdraw it you just allowed to tip with it, I am not 100% sure since I never used the brave browser before. The availability of Tor browsing feature in it is a total win for me.
That is the first time to hear that they have this feature I might actually try it soon.

It's why I am using brave now. You just click on open new window with Tor and boom there you go. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftalkimg.com%2Fimages%2F2023%2F07%2F19%2FnutBI.png&t=665&c=W7oQR92lH29Ivw)

I'm also using Brave right now and I see this as one of the most promising projects that can cater millions of internet users, those who are involved in cryptocurrency should use this in support of Cryptocurrency based project.

I agree with guys like Fluffypony who thinks it is a scam. The browser might be a good product but I don't see a purpose for the token. The ICO was just a cash grab. You don't need to print your own money to protect users privacy. It also seems like cashing out your tokens from your Brave wallet is a bit of a hassle according to this reviewer. They still have a lot of things to smooth out with their platform. KYC requirements for Brave Rewards and low payouts to websites where Brave ads are running isn't going to attract many people.

Enjin Coin and Basic Attention Token are very profitable next days because there is a speculation that Samsung Galaxy S10 will support this coin in the native wallet.

I own some BAT for 1.5 years, I like how they develop constantly, too bad they are on Ethereum, this will cause problems in the long run.
