Not sure why you are downvoted.
I guess users could also send the tokens elsewhere to try and find an exchange that doesnt care about money laundering laws - but governments get quite involved in crypto.
Or is transfering tokens not possible?
- gjsman-1000 5y agoNot with Brave, it is not. All of your tokens go into Uphold, and you must go through full KYC (providing your Driver's License and SSN), before you can move them to any other wallet. And no, the tokens your browser says you have, they aren't actually yours or transferrable until your KYC Verification is complete. The amount of tokens in your account before you complete Uphold verification is more of an IOU BAT until you create an account and get the actual BAT. This is what is also egregious. Yes, BAT is decentralized when you move it around in wallets, but as far as the browser is concerned, all BAT you earn from receiving ads is actually quite centralized.
- kerng 5y agoThanks for clarifying - that indeed should have a big red warning sign for anyone signing up trying to collect BAT via Brave.
