Hi everyone Anidel aka @ankarlie here. In this blog I want to discuss with you how to earn cryptocurrencies using Brave Browser and Basic Attention Tokens.
What are Brave Browser and Basic Attention Tokens?
Brave browser is a web browser very much like Chrome and Firefox. In fact it was created by one of the the co-founder of Mozilla (company composed of previous employees of Netscape) Mr. Brendan Eich. What is really awesome about this web browser is its excellent AdBlock, tracking and security protection.
Basic Attention Tokens are, as the name implies tokens that can be use to exchange for goods or services rendered. In our case as payment for the attention users give when they see advertisement while browsing the net; as a reward for publishers who regularly publish original and interesting content. This token is so awesome when it launched it sold out in less than 30 seconds raising a cool $36M USD (wow that was like more than $1M USD per second.)
Recently, the blog site of BAT informed the public that the newly upgraded version of Brave browser vesrsion 0.19.95 has enabled a feature that gives users the ability to reward publishers such as Youtube publishers.
One just need to activate the internal BAT wallet of Brave and Load some BAT into the wallet using BTC, ETH, LTC or BAT. You can also load using fiat money using Uphold remittance services (We will discuss this in detail later on this article). Before you go about doing this please note that this is at its initial stages only and funds transferred their can only be transferred to BAT accredited publishers. (There is a work around to this so no problem).
How do we earn exactly?
There are two main ways to earn. First is by enabling Brave Browser Ads and surfing the brave enabled sites and second by getting rewarded for being a publisher of original content.
Earning by browsing Brave enabled sites:
The first thing you want to do is enable Brave ads. By default Brave browser blocks all forms of advertisement including Brave ads.
Second you want to enable you BAT internal wallet in Brave.
The Brave Payment Dashboard will appear after you switch it on. This shows you your current balance and the option to adding funds:
Once the "add funds" Icon is pressed it will bring you to this dashboard where you can find the different means on how to fund your internet wallet.
You may fund the wallet using the shown currencies or you may use the payment processor Uphold if you want to use credit or debit card.
Earning by being a publisher:
The first thing you might want to do to earn as a publisher is to activate your Brave Publisher Account here.
You can either be a site operator or an individual creator. Currently for individual creator Youtube is the only site available for the moment.
Once you are a verified brave publisher you can earn from the many sites that Brave will support soon.
That's it for now guys. I hope you found the article useful. If you have any questions or comments please feel free to comment below. Don't forget to Upvote, Resteem and Follow. until next time guys bye! (sorry for the errors will edit regularly)
ADDENDUM:
Work around on transfer the funds you have sent to your wallet: *** Just reward your own content in youtube or Brave activated sites***. These sites usually have this icon:
If you have not done so please consider "steemgigs" as one of our witnesses, simply visit https://steemit.com/~witnesses and type in "steemgigs" into the first search box for witnesses. WHY? search for @surpassinggoogle it is his witness account. As other spread hate, fear and uncertainty rooted in greed. He spread love, compassion, generosity and patience to all even to his detractors.

Great info, Anidel! Thank you. As I said before, you are so much more on top of this stuff than me. I am often more concerned with my art things (photography and haiku) and my brain kind of turns off when I start to research anything money related. So it is nice to have your posts to read everyday keeping me informed about all of this. Please keep up the great work!
Thanks David. I don't have any other choice but to learn this stuff because i am living of my earnings from cryptocurrencies :) Thanks for stopping by and see you around :)

Very usefull article, thanks i will try.
Those are called jalousie windows you may google it to know more about them.. and yeah i have rabbit teeth lol ... about the advertising thing i am not sure maybe if there are some issues about it i am sure Google will contact them first.
Oh those are aluminum screens and the ones you are pointing too are access windows so that we can close the windows via its levers.These are really old designs.... okay who :)
Or better yet they might think it is a brilliant model and buy them out.
The "pay to view ads" model is very prone to ad fraud from bots viewing the ads. The reason this model is different is because they'll have solid programming in place to prevent fraud like this, so when someone pays to show you an ad, they can be pretty confident it's actually a person viewing the ad, not a bot.
