For the first time ever, we'll be seeing answers to both of those questions. BAT holders have a reason to be worried, but they're by no means doomed. Gab is forking Brave to create their own browser, and while on the surface it is a Gab vs Brave war, it really is a war between BTC and ERC20 tokens.

We'll have two browsers with pretty much equal userbases - Dissenter and Brave.
One will use LN, the other will use BAT.

Which one would you prefer and why? If you use neither of these, would you elaborate why that is?
Thanks to BAT we have browser, but that is all, we do not really need a token.
So Gab Browser makes a sense because how many of us have Bitcoin? But how many have BAT?
