BAT is one of the best cryptocurrencies to hit this space in a while.
Created by Brendan Eich, developer and CEO of Mozilla Inc, this token is the native token of the popular Brave browser.
And while there are communities all over the internet(mostly just Reddit) hating on BAT for no obvious reason, this token really matters in the long run.
Why?
Let's find out.
BAT has one main purpose, and one main purpose only.
And that is to become the currency of the internet.
Sounds obvious? That's because it is.
BAT wants to be the token you use when you want to tip your favourite content creators. Or when you want to pay for subscriptions(eventually).
And this token matters a lot, regardless of how much people hate on it.
You see, the advertising space is pretty wack right now.
Consumers get nothing in return for advertisements eating up their bandwidth.
Brave and BAT change that by rewarding users with actual money(in crypto of course) for viewing ads, photos and (eventually) passively mining BAT.
And this will spark a revolution in the digital advertising space.
There will be new companies trying to imitate Brave. And Google and Facebook would eventually have to step up their advertising game by giving rewards to users. Or Brave will eventually take over.
BAT will be the token of the internet.
And this is why it matters.
