But don't you think that people get much more interested in something they actually own as opposed to something they could or couldn't buy?
Well, good point. In this sort of case, I couldn't think of anything on the top of my head besides Lolli. Probably earning BAT/BTC through casually browsing using the Brave Browser, but unfortunately you'd need to submit KYC/AML information(which I don't suggest you'd do) to collect the few dollars worth of BAT/BTC you earn each month hence why they have a bad reputation here on Bitcointalk.
Is there a particular reason why you don't suggest submitting KYC info to Brave / BAT / Uphold? I mean, apart from the hassle of doing so?
Basically, as much as possible I would like to
not have my personal information out there unless completely necessary(PayPal, local banking, etc). The more centralized companies that have a hold of your personal information, the more likely that your personal information will be leaked online sometime in the future. Along with that, I'm not saying that Uphold is doing something shady, but we don't really know what they're doing with our information. We might not know, but they might be possibly selling it.
