Cryptotab vs Brave browser
-
Browsing speed
Using a browser is all about its speed . And When it comes to speed of browising Brave is more faster then cryptotab and is even slower them crome browser. When compare with brave, firefox, crome and internet explore cryptotab came in fourth place and brave in the first place.So you can decide from here.
-
Reward system
Both the brave and cryptotab rewards its users for using their browser. But in this case cryptotab is much better than brave browser because withdrawal can be done just after reaching the minimum threshold and don't have to wait for 30 days like in case of brave. And the payment is in BTC.
-
Transparent ownership
When it comes to the owner of the company cryptotab sound bit fishy. The owner of this browser is unknown and it provides only an email to connect their team. They do realy pays but cannot guarante for how long it will be. But brave have a highly qualified team lead by former firefox developer Brendon Eich.
-
Privacy and extention
Both provide a good system of privacy but brave privacy is more advance than cryptotab as they are developing a new fingerprinting method of privacy. But in case of extention cryptotab provides about 150 types of extention where as brave have a limited extention.
-
Ads blocker and tracker
Both have an adblocking feature but brave ads blocking feature is way more effective than cryptotab . As it also save time in browser.
-
Data and power consumption
Brave browser doesn't consumed less data and power where as crypto tab consume high amount of electric power due to its mining process which could cause a damage to the device in long term.
Conclusion
From the above comparison there is no doubt that brave is more better than cryptotab and is more userfriendly and more advance than any type of browser.
