Tfw everyone here laughed at me when I told them this would take off

He's literally teasing a whole research paper

>bought my BAT stack at ten cents not too long after the ICO.
>up 80%

Fucking comfy.

PIECE

OF

CAKE

They wont be laughing soon.

They will probably buy in and sell the entire ride up to $5 with their tiny stacks that get increasingly smaller as BAT steals market share from the rest of the worthless vaporware coins.

how does an advertiser pay? in bat or in fiat?
and if brave gets a % of the bat from ad sales, won't brave end up owning all the tokens eventually theoretically?

advertisers pay in fiat, and the sale is finalized in BAT. No because BATs have to be given out in exchange for attention for the system to even work.

Brave is going to be sitting on a hoard of their own tokens, simultaneously reducing the circulating supply and making the company itself richer. Of course, they will give some away as grants to keep getting people to download the browser. Brave will be a force to reckon with shortly.

but the advertisers are paying for the attention already right? so does the flow go:

advertiser buys bat from brave in fiat at current exchange value

publisher gets % of BAT and Brave gets % of bat

... what happens if people like it as a store of value, lmao... and it... it runs out? how will people advertise?

swing trade now ?

> What is supply and demand
It never runs out, just goes up on value, it will be a store of value and actually used for goods and services

It's got a big market cap and is divisible into like 18 decimal points tho in my humble imho opinion. You can't run (probably)

^^^

is there a place to sign up to advertise, i can't see one?

I think they're approaching established "blue chip" third parties at this stage and will make it more inclusive after a short time. That's just a complete, worthless guess on my part though.

Just go to the contact page and send them an email. You should be able to advertise for free and it will be funded by the UGP. They are running trials, and fine tuning everything so they dont have a full public self service module running yet.

Jow Forums will never understand BAT, just like they never understood ETH.

To expand on that, Jow Forums is a little bit of an autistic popularity contest. LINK won the INTJ autistic kids' minds by shilling hardest at the right time and targeting the right kind of INTJ mindset, this whole "IT'S GOING TO MAKE YOU RICH, AND THE NORMIES WILL HATE YOU" mindset.

Brave/BAT represents something completely different, it represents bringing crypto to the masses, the fucking brainlets and the normies. Jow Forums's autistic reasoning cannot possibly relate to this type of thing, and so they fucking hate it and denounce it and proclaim it as useless.

we'll see in the long run I guess

BAT holders are much more practical than any other coin. We can see the performance metrics rising, and we know that they are getting closer to widespread adoption everyday.

Other coins do not have this luxury. They rely on partnerships, and the news cycle. Their hopes are that they can con other retail investors into buying their bags or redistributing their portfolio in a way that other bagholders will pick up the slack on their bag. Basically they want to trade turds or scam someone.

BAT holders don't need to con anyone, and their value prop is simple enough that retail investors would actually be interested in it because the business model is simple enough to understand. Even if nobody invests in BAT token the advertisers will still have to.

With all the other tokens out there, the value prop is to just sell to a greater fool. Don't be surprised if you see BAT start the next bull run, and lead the charge into top 3

I'm not stupid, and I see the value, however i fail to see how a competitor could not enter this market and steal marketshare. I seriously fucking doubt this will be a top 3 coin?

That being said, I love Brave, and I love the BAT concept even if i'm unsure what the *unique* (key word unique) value proposition of this token system is. Couldn't there be competing advertising networks? seems more logical than this thing shooting up 100 billion plus in like two years lol but stranger things have happened.

Either way this is what i've been accumulating, since it's easy to buy on coinbase, but those are just my reasons why i have no significant portion of my portfolio invested at this time in BAT.

God I hope BAT starts the next bull run. Just to see all these Jow Forums idiots get blown the fuck out.

>i fail to see how a competitor could not enter this market and steal marketshare

Brave already has quite the headstart in publisher/ad network partnerships. Any competitor will need to catch up on this first. If Brave/BAT is successful, other apps will start integrating the BAT system as well. Network effects should make it hard for copycat products to gain traction.

Maybe some tech giant with established industry relationships could launch a rival product quickly, but I can't quite see who would do that. The very idea goes against Google's or Facebook's business model.

i mean it's a bit of a popularity contest isn't it? any browser can simply release a blockchain friendly update, introduce their own token and bam

A single content producer of note could change the game on how people are tipped

ya feel me?

They have to establish formal relations with advertising companies and content producers tho

Jow Forums have been in it since ico so don't feel special

top 3 HAHAAHHA

What if BAT becomes the conduit for digital content royalties? When I upload something, that content is linked to my Brave wallet, and when that content is posted somewhere which receives BAT, it funnels a portion towards me. Can someone please explain to me why this isn't feasible? Basic attention measured beyond advertising?

Its going to be number 1.

Shhhh...don't arouse the wrath of the Bogs.

>buy high
>sell low
Well done, lad

try not to kys when it hits $5 next year

2/3 my stack was bought at 2k sats, the rest was $0.38. I think I might be able to unload some of this if things don't shit the bed. I know how depressing it is to see it go that low but man I don't believe you pulled the trigger...

I literally shorted btc the day i sold my bat too. I've seen nothing but a sea of red.. Thought I'd be better after the years of regular stocks.. I've definitely lost good health over this recently. Happy to be alive

Hah i was convinced btc was about to drop. I was so scared it could go another - 50%.believe what you want its my losses not yours

Dude, now is probably the BEST time to buy crypto

You have no clue how much pain I've been since i sold. I fucked up hard.. Its been going up since the minute i sold

That’s a cool idea. Might be possible in the future.

Please tell me you’re LARPing

Lost some LINKs trading this piece of shit.
Never again, stay below 20c forever, piece of shit.
