Brave expands Basic Attention Token platform to YouTube

I think this is a service I'd use if it were available as an extension rather than a browser in its own right.

Here one item of the Brave-FAQ:

Why build a browser and not extensions for top browsers?

Extensions face API and performance limits. Our own browser lets us put our best foot forward on speed and deep integration of private ad-tech. We may do extensions if our users find themselves browsing in other browsers often.

=> give them feedback if you’re interested

> Why build a browser and not extensions for top browsers?

I happen to be working on this right now http://browsercoin.com, if anybody is interested in beta testing it out, my email is in my profile.

> Extensions face API and performance limits. Our own browser lets us put our best foot forward on speed and deep integration of private ad-tech. We may do extensions if our users find themselves browsing in other browsers often.

Basically, their FAQ answer is debatable because the Chrome API is more than enough to support a Patreonesque model, if you have uBlock and other privacy focused extension, you don't even need to download a heavy browser client.

Hence the name BrowserCoin, I'd be open to feedbacks on what you would like to see happen with it.
