What is Brave Browser
Brave is a free and open-source web browser developed by Brave Software Inc which was founded on 28 May 2015 by CEO Brendan Eich (creator of Javascript and former CEO of Mozilla Corporation) and CTO Brian Bondy] based on the Chromium web browser.
On 20 January 2016, Brave Software launched the first version of Brave with an ad-blocking feature, and announced plans for a privacy-respecting ad feature and a revenue sharing program. It blocks ads & website trackers and provides a way for users to send cryptocurrency contributions in the form of Basic Attention Tokens (BAT) to websites and content creators.
Browser Business Models
Browsers like Chrome, Microsoft’s Edge and Apple’s Safari don’t care about making revenue through browser because their parent organizations value them for non-monetary reasons as well as their ability to produce revenue in different way.
But browsers like Firefox, are just the opposite: They generates revenue using any of below known options : Search royalties, Indirect market penetration, Improved tracking & Marketplace fees.
As Brave Browser blocks ads & website trackers they can’t generate revenue like what Firefox or other browsers do hence they introduced unusual business model: it strips out ads from websites, replaces them with its own ads, then allows users to send money (cryptocurrency) to sites they like.
