Mainstream advertisers beginning to adopt the BAT ecosystem!
What is Basic Attention Token (BAT)?
Basic Attention Token (BAT) is a revolutionary digital advertising and rewards platform. BAT was created from the inventor of JavaScript and co-founder of Mozilla & Firefox. The BAT platform rewards users in Ethereum-based BAT tokens for any ads they choose to see. BAT locally matches ads to users without any tracking or data collection required. Basic Attention Token is integrated into BAT-enabled applications, such as the Brave web browser. Brave browser is a fast, BAT-enabled privacy browser that blocks all 3rd-party ads and trackers by default.
The BAT token is an Ethereum-based ERC20 utility token, utilized as the unit of account within the overarching BAT platform:
- Advertisers transact in BAT tokens to purchase advertising space (user attention) within the BAT Ads network. Advertisers may also pay in fiat, which is then exchanged for BAT behind the scenes . Advertisers can use a self-serve ad manager or Brave’s managed account services to launch their campaigns. To advertise, please visit https://ads.brave.com
- Publishers and content creators receive user contributions (e.g., tips) and ad revenue in BAT. (Publishers/creators use the Creator Dashboard.)
- Users earn BAT tokens for opting into Brave Ads. (Users use BAT-enabled applications such as the Brave browser.)
