Brave is a cryptocurrency. No thanks.

  I don't see that at all. I've been using Brave for years and nothing to do with crypto. There is a BAT thing, but you can disable it.

      I said that, but you can disable it. Can you explain your comment? Is it forcing me to use crypto and I'm not aware of it? Am I mining?

          From your same source > Since April 2019, users of the Brave browser can opt in to the Brave Rewards feature. I have used Brave for years. I've never seen any of their ads and hardly see any other hands since they have a pop-up blocker.
