How to get free Basic Attention Token (BAT)?
Basic Attention Token (BAT) is an digital advertising platform between publishers, advertisers and users based on Ethereum ERC-20 utility token, founded by Brendan Eich creator of JavaScript and the co-founder of Mozilla and Firefox. The platform is integrated with the Brave web browser.
BAT token can be exchanged between publishers, advertisers, users and used to obtain a variety of advertising and attention-based services on the BAT platform. The token pays publishers for their content and users for their attention, while providing advertisers with more in return for their ads.
Brave browser
Brave is an open-source web browser based on the chromium that blocks the ads, malware and trackers that slow you down, chew up your bandwidth, and invade your privacy.
If you are interested in brave and BAT platform and you want to know how to claim your free BAT and how you can spend them follow the steps below:
step 1: Download the brave browser.
https://brave.com/
Note that Brave payments is available for the desktop. However, a future update will include mobile integration.
step 2: When the browser is downloaded and installed go to the settings menu.
step 3: Set the toggle button to 'on'.
step 4: Click on “Claim my free tokens”.
step 5: And now your BAT has been added.
How does it work?
Readers may choose a monthly contribution amount which is divided among the publisher sites they visit most.
The Brave browser anonymously monitors user attention and knows where users spend their time, making it the perfect tool to calculate and reward publishers with BATs. This service creates a transparent and efficient Blockchain-based digital advertising market.
Users viewing ads will be rewarded with BATs. BATs can be used for premium content or services on the BAT platform.
Publishers receive more revenue because middlemen and fraud are reduced. Users, who opt in, receive fewer but better targeted ads that are less prone to malware. And advertisers get better data on their spending.
To fund your wallet via cryptocurrencies no registration is required, users can add funds with BTC, LTC, ETH or BAT by making a transfer to the corresponding wallet address. Note that non-BAT funds sent to the Brave wallet will automatically be converted to BAT, and the balance will be held in BAT by your wallet.
For users who wish to convert fiat into BAT, you can do so by registering with Uphold or other exchanges. Note that for exchanges other than Uphold, a standard cryptocurrency network fee will apply to the transfer in addition to any exchange fee.
In the future Brave will add the ability to directly fund your wallet with a credit card in the browser.
(Please note that you cannot transfer BAT out of your Brave wallet. The Brave BAT wallet is unidirectional (as was the Brave Payments Bitcoin proof-of-concept system), and its sole purpose currently is to anonymously and securely contribute to publishers of websites of your choosing.)
