Has anybody here used this one? I'm just curious about it, so I tried using it (didn't really spend any BTC; just opened the wallet to see what's in it)
Features that some might actually care about:
* It supports a lot of blockchains (including BTC)
* Allows you to generate 12 or 24 word seed phrases
* Allows you to import an account (through its private key - I don't recommend doing this Cheesy) or by connecting your hardware wallet
* Has a built-in market tracker - Explore page A page to check to see if the market is red or green.
* Has a swap & bridge feature Haven't tried this, and there are only a few providers listed
* Buy crypto/BTC via your good 'ol visa/mastercard

What I don't like:
* Can't send to many (or make multi-output transactions)
* Can't import a watch-only wallet, let alone build a transaction for it
* It's basically a hot wallet (unless you put this browser on an air-gapped laptop, which at that point, just use Electrum)  Grin
* Also, when it generated a 24-word seed phrase, it generated two words twice? IDK if this is fine or not


This is not a sponsored post for Brave Wallet (or was it Brave Browser Wallet?). Tongue

I haven't used it yet.
What about transaction fees, are there options, or is it a fixed rate set by the wallet?

For me, even though I have control for the private keys, existing wallet feels far more trustworthy, and Electrum remains my choice for Bitcoin, though I might consider Brave Wallet if I needed support for multiple chains.

I do not like wallets with terms of service.

Quote
Modification of Terms of Use
Brave reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to modify or replace any of the Terms of Use, or change, suspend, or discontinue the Service (including without limitation, the availability of any feature, database, or content) at any time by posting a notice on the Brave websites or Service or by sending you an email. Brave may also impose limits on certain features and services or restrict your access to parts or all of the Service without notice or liability. It is your responsibility to check the Terms of Use periodically for changes. Your continued use of the Service following the posting of any changes to the Terms of Use constitutes acceptance of those changes.

Quote
Termination
Brave may terminate your access to all or any part of the Service at any time if you fail to comply with these Terms of Use, which may result in the forfeiture and destruction of all information associated with your account.

Quote
Acceptance of Terms
Brave may, in its sole discretion, refuse to offer the Service to any person or entity and change its eligibility criteria at any time. This provision is void where prohibited by law and the right to access the Service is revoked in such jurisdictions.

Why is it that among the coin that anyone want to include while creating the wallet, solana and ethereum can not be unchecked, while bitcoin can be unchecked? Are they advertising for solana and ethereum? I do not like the kind of wallet that will not let people know how important bitcoin is while make other coins kind of more relevant.

Although, the wallet is open source. Some people might like it. It is an online wallet, it is better it should be used with very little amount of money.

Brave browser encourage ads, but which you will manually enable to be get paid a small peanut amount of money as you watch ads. Ads should be discouraged.

I use Brave occasionally, but I’ve never been interested in using its wallet. However, I think it’s better than Telegram’s in-app wallet.

* Also, when it generated a 24-word seed phrase, it generated two words twice? IDK if this is fine or not
In this context, it is safe. https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/59904/does-bip39-mnemonic-construction-avoid-repeating-words
Afaik, Even when aiming for 128 bits of entropy (12 words) under the BIP39 standard, word repetition can occur.

I created a Brave wallet a few months ago. I thought I could transfer BAT tokens, but I ended up not being able to withdraw my earnings because my KYC was rejected. 
I never use it for any other crypto; I just created mine because of the BAT token earnings.

I don't think a browser-based wallet like this one is safe, but it works just the same as MetaMask, I think.

Is this different from the brave reward wallet thingy we used to have back then? I think they even had people do KYC to claim their results. That was probably the time Brave's popularity started skydiving on top of getting acquired by Binance

People now have so many alternatives, and if it's not open source for a start. I am not touching it.

* Also, when it generated a 24-word seed phrase, it generated two words twice? IDK if this is fine or not
This has ever happened to me too with a certain wallet software, and it's Ok.

But why though?

This works very well:

Electrum for BTC
Rabby for Ethereum and co (all other chains)
Phantom for Solana

All in-wallet swaps charge an extra fee, just use any instant swap or dex.
