Can you cash it out? Considering how few web creators even accept BAT, I can't see it having any value of you couldn't...

Of course, you can pretty easily see it traded on exchanges. [0]

There’s over a million web creators accepting bat just from brave [1] and while that’s not everyone or even a big percentage it’s not “few web creators.” If you don’t want to give to web creators you’re free to cash out and donate cash to charities. So that’s a plus that’s not possible with other browsers.

Note, I don’t use the crypto feature in brave, I’m just annoyed by people spreading FUD about stuff.
