Whenever an advertisement is displayed to you, brave awards you BAT which you then pay a percentage of to the site owner.

Brave also controls what kind of advertisements you can see and prevents things like auto playing videos and full screen ads from cropping up.

It also allows you to apportion micro payments to content producers.

Won’t weigh in on whether this makes brave groundbreaking or not, but this is at least part of what it does that makes it unique.

It also has this whole interface it exposes to advertisers and content owners I don’t fully understand.

Optional micropayments incorporated in to the browser, paid out to content creators based on site usage.
