Birds flying in a dark, cloudy sky

SPOOKY! 👻 vBAT not in custodial accounts is flying away! 🦇

By STUB | Crypto News with STUB | 9 Oct 2023


Happy spooky season, everyone. I was greeted by this scary notification from the Brave browser:

Action required: Connect a custodial account or your [virtual Basic Attention Token] vBAT will be lost

On October 30, 2023 at 8:00 PM, we will be discontinuing support for existing virtual BAT balances. Connect a custodial account before this date so we can transfer your earned balance to your custodial account, otherwise your balance will be lost.

Action required notification from Brave browser on losing vBAT without a custodial account

It's true. I haven't created a custodial account. The value of Brave's BAT has not given me an incentive to risk my personal data with their partnered custodians.

So, what should I do? It appears I can still send my vBAT via the Brave browser plugin. I'd like to donate it to a non-profit. Please comment below with your suggestions of reputable non-profits who accept vBAT. I'd love to donate it before it flies away!

Regards!
