Hey Publish0x Community,
The first contest we've held a few weeks back went really well. Almost 50 of you have let the community know why you're holding the tokens that you're holding, and you can read the articles submitted in the ShowYourPortfolio contests here.
PS. The winners of the SwitchToBrave contest were announced here.
SwitchToBrave Writing Contest - $200 in BAT Prize Pool
Now it's time for the next contest. One that will focus on BAT, and the best browser there is - the Brave Browser.
We love Brave. It's not just faster than Chrome, but it is a browser with an inbuilt ad-blocker that cares about your privacy. On top of that, it's built on the same engine as Chrome is, so using Brave will feel very familiar; It's easy to import all of your settings, including bookmarks, and you can use all of your Chrome browser extensions too.
The SwitchToBrave Contest is Simple
Show us a screenshot of your favorite crypto site (or any site!) when viewed with Google Chrome (or your current browser), VS when the website is viewed with the Brave Browser, and let us know why you think others should SwitchToBrave, or in case you have counter arguments - why one shouldn't download Brave.
If you don't have it yet, download the Brave Browser here.
Ideally, disable the ad-blockers that Google is seemingly desperate to make obsolete. This will show the start difference between how your favorite website looks with, against how it looks without a clutter of ads. I've compared CoinMarketCap when viewed from Chrome VS when viewed from Brave Browser - you can see the results in the screenshots near the bottom of this article.

Sample Article to Help You. Model it, If You're Out of Ideas.
Z, one of our more quieter team members (thus far) has written a sample article for SwitchToBrave contest, that you can model if you'd like. Read it here.
I've compared CoinMarketCap when viewed from Chrome, VS when viewed from Brave Browser
Even though my preference is for CoinGecko over CoinMarketCap, CoinGecko had surprisingly few ads, so would make a less interesting comparison.
Below is a screenshot of CoinMarketCap when viewed with Chrome from my desktop VS when viewed with Brave from my desktop. Notice a clutter of ads on Chrome (3 huge ads) and lack of them in Brave (0 ads!)
PS. You can make a single side by side image like this one in Pixlr Express.
I hope that many of you will take part in this contest, as I personally love the Brave Browser. Brave has become my main browser recently, and has already saved me a tone of time. Try the Brave Browser today. You'll be happy you did!
Time I saved and ads blocked thanks to the Brave Browser.
As always, join the Publish0x Telegram community, or write to us via [email protected] if you have a support related inquiry.
PS. Extra love from me if you tweet out your article using the hashtag #SwitchToBrave :)
Good luck to you all!
Cheers,
Igor
