Braves New KYC and the Future of Crypto

Published: Aug. 11, 2019, 10:27 p.m.

b'Brave, a privacy-focused browser headed by Brendan Eich, is the creator of the Basic Attention Token (BAT), used in the Brave browser to monetize an attention economy that is fair to creators, advertisers, and users. Brave uses a third-party wallet service called Uphold to facilitate this process. They are now requiring KYC (know your customer information requests) for creators to receive rewards and withdraw BAT tokens to external accounts. Is this possibly the horribly inevitable future of peer-to-peer exchange of value??\\n\\nLinks:\\nhttps://beincrypto.com/brave-users-up-in-arms-over-mandatory-kyc-for-bat-withdrawals-to-external-addresses/\\nhttps://community.brave.com/t/brave-rewards-user-wallets-a-significant-update/72340\\nhttps://www.cryptopolitan.com/brave-users-face-forced-kyc-on-external-bat-withdrawals/\\n\\nVideo Version: https://youtu.be/0ml-8Mp_6TY\\n\\n- - -\\nCredits:\\nMusic is either\\nAviators - Infinity Awaits Us (Space Fantasy BGM | Royalty Free Album) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sisGSwT2eN0\\n\\nMusic by: Sirius Beat - The Cosmos\\nLink: http://youtu.be/Bkg08NvtvBU\\n\\nBackground video is either images from the Hubble telescope or\\nVideo from the Amazing Space YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CyExswc5j7U\\nRecorded by the SELENE Lunar Orbiter - images are copyright JAXA / NHK\\nSELENE , better known in Japan by its nickname Kaguya, was the second Japanese lunar orbiter spacecraft following the Hiten probe]\\n\\nProduced by the Institute of Space and Astronautical Science (ISAS) and the National Space Development Agency (NASDA), the spacecraft was launched on September 14, 2007.
