This isn't an intelligent statement. I have used Brave for years and literally never see anything related to "crypto".
If you're trying to go "chrome but better" than Brave is a move in the wrong direction, given its bundled cryptocurrency and ad platform.
Perhaps you haven't heard of Chromium. If so, that may be because Chromium doesn't spend as much on marketing as Brave.

It's funny because I worked in that repository for a few years, and routinely built a custom "shell" (what Chromecast is) and when this guy suggested Brave my thought was... eh, yeah, sure, but I could also just roll my own or just run stock chromium :-)
I personally like that Firefox isn't based on webkit/blink.
What if you could take the benefits of the spending and jettison the side-effects?
It's called Brave, they have their own ad blocker in the source code written in C, so it can't be hamstrung.
