You're missing one of the earliest points in my response; the tokens people were "sending" to creators [were from Brave]. We gave the user 5 BAT and asked them who they'd like to support with it. User's could pick a creator, and we would work on notifying that creator that [BAT from Brave had been directed towards them by Brave users]. All of that aside, the feedback from users around this time was phenomenal, and helped us redesign the system into something substantially better.
- x4e 5y agoAh OK, I thought they were able to donate BAT they earnt from ads, that is definitely different. Still misleading, but better.
- jonathansampson 5y agoWe didn't have the ability to earn from ad-notifications at that time. These events and changes (https://brave.com/rewards-update/ https://brave.com/rewards-update/) predate the launch of Brave Ads, which we introduced in April of 2019 (https://brave.com/brave-ads-launch/ https://brave.com/brave-ads-launch/). I wouldn't say "misleading," as this suggests deliberate deceit. Our UI/UX was nascent, and naïve. The feedback we received was timely, and incredibly helpful. I'm pleased we were able to turn around the updates quickly, which have since served to make for a substantially better experience
