The Brave internet browser, which rewards users with cryptocurrency, has clocked up phenomenal growth. According to AppBrain, the Android app has now been downloaded 20 million times.
Brave aims to fix the internet by blocking ads and refusing to track user activity and location. The platform rewards users and content creators with a native cryptocurrency, Basic Attention Token (BAT).
The growth comes amid growing backlash towards Googles invasive privacy policies. Brave, and its crypto reward system could pose a threat to traditional web browsers like Chrome.
