The Brave browser has announced the update of its new version that will support almost all the Chrome extensions and features that will come by this year-end. This development will bring its native BAT token into the limelight and give a potential boost to its prices.
Brave, an open source web browser has announced the development plans for its upcoming browser’s 1.0 release. Developed by Mozilla co-founder, Brave will be based on Chromium and will use the native interface of Chromium instead of its current Javascript UI and HTML.
The browser claims to come with an inbuilt ad blocker, script blocker, and tracking protector while being integrated with HTTPS. Moreover, it offers protection against WebRTC leak and anti-fingerprinting.
According to the update, the new Chromium-based Brave browser will be coming later this year that will be compatible with almost all the features and extension APIs of Google Chrome.
The most interesting feature of the Brave browser is its native BAT token (Basic Attention Token) that can be used for advertising and attention based services. Brave basically facilitates crypto-based transactions between content producers and consumers.
It has been stated that the new version is not yet ready for release, hence doesn’t have any launch date. The latest version still has Tor private tabs, brave payments and sync like critical features that remains to be added. They are also working on its iOS browser update and are in the middle of moving from UI Web View to WK Web View.
The users of Brave will be further given the option to see private, opt-in ads soon. For this, a 70 percent revenue share in the form of BAT coin will be distributed on advertising earnings.
