    Publishers that refer someone get about 30-40 BAT (depending on the region they user is from). 1500 BAT is way out of league with that; nobody is going to give you that much for installing Brave. These scammers re likely just collecting their referral bonus and moving on while giving nothing back. That's the best case scenario...

    I still don't get what the advantage is of having a full node on a phone, unless you're concerned about 1. Malware compromising the phone 2. Access to lite wallets being cut off (e.g. Coinomi's blockchain servers that support the wallet) For most, I think a mobile wallet app is sufficient. Maybe I'm missing something though.
  3. ProjectJourneyman
    If you have to do KYC, it's not really a wallet, it's a service. With wallets (like Coinomi) you control the keys, and the funds are yours. Any service that requires KYC and will lock down your funds otherwise cannot be considered a wallet.

    I guess it depends on how much you have, and what you're protecting against. It does seem like a nice way to sock away some BTC separately from anything else you have, perhaps great if you're in an unstable area or if you might be declaring bankruptcy...

    I verified KYC so I could get airdrops, but then found out I am not eligible because I'm in the USA. Kind of hard to say I'm not at this point πŸ˜„ It does make the app rather useless for me though, I already have other wallet apps.

    There seems to be a bit of confusion between Coinbase the *service* and *Coinbase Wallet* which is a standalone wallet for which you own the keys. With the service, you can't do ERC20 tokens. With the mobile wallet, you can. The Blockchain app does not do general ERC20 tokens, as far as I know. My preference is Coinbase Wallet because it's flexible. A wallet that just holds ETH and BTC (and a few others) are a dime a dozen IMHO.
  7. ProjectJourneyman
    You don't need to use the Coinbase service to use the Coinbase Wallet. They're separate, where the wallet is non-custodial (you own your own keys)

    Heh, you quoted me quoting another user, those weren't my words. I think Brave works great.

    A properly secured modern phone (pin/pattern) will make it hard to retrieve any information. Your mobile wallet will add additional layers of security. So unless you're without another device for a long time you will be likely able to retrieve your funds more quickly than anyone could access them from the phone.

    So long as you don't stumble on a fake Metamask clone, I say Metamask is an important tool in your toolset. You can interact with dApps directly from your own browser, rather than anything built-in to a mobile app (poor experience there)
  11. ProjectJourneyman
    No, that's not quite correct. You can't directly withdraw BAT earnings from the mobile browser *yet*, but you can from the desktop browser. If you are a content producer you can "tip" yourself to withdraw from the mobile browser. Or just wait until they finish the wallet sync (not sure about schedule at all)

    I haven't seen enough of ETN to make me think it's much more exciting than a myriad of other coins vying for my attention, but I will say it follows through on the promise of the cloud mining; the coins became available, I could send outside of the wallet (and they have value on exchanges). That's more than a lot of coins can say.

    The next bull run won't look like the last one, so blindly investing in the last big thing may not make you rich. Bitcoin will probably gain in the next bull run, but other smaller coins may make a bigger gain. The question is which ones...
  14. ProjectJourneyman
    Sadly, few coins ever go out of existence. A tiny fraction get delisted due to fraud and complete project shutdown, but in most cases coins just languish and never really go away, they just stay at a low value and contribute to the noise in the crypto space.

    It's not selfish - they pay 50% of their ad revenue to users. If there are no advertisers in the user's region, then there is no advertising revenue to split. Half of zero is still zero -- Brave isn't funding this from their own pockets as a charity.
  16. ProjectJourneyman
    I think the only way to resolve this is if the team has a strategy and someone who has time allocated to analyze the posts. It won't work to just have users accusing each other of being bots.

    It's so alluring, I like free stuff as much as anyone else. However I get frustrated with myself that I keep spending time on them because it's low-return on your time, but also mindless and short bursts of attention. It's better to go deep and learn something (or build something) that take more time and has more potential for return.

    What we do NOT need are halfway private coins trying to jump on the bandwagon. Coins that offer optional privacy are not privacy coins in any way. The numbers how that the limited use of the privacy features render the transactions that attempt to do so very transparent. MimbleWimbleCoin is a pretty good option though. It's very similar to BTC, except some major improvements like that it implements the MimbleWimble protocol.

    When your attitude is to get rich with no work, your chances of success are low. Take each opportunity to learn and hopefully turning what you have into more, but always keep learning.

    Thanks for sharing, sorry to hear that this happened to you. Warning users of the details can also help, if you think it would help anyone else avoid it.

    Even if the ads don't earn you anything, Brave is an amazing browser. On mobile it can turn multi-page articles into a single page.

    Wow, that's serious money. And actual money, not just a huge amount of their own coin, which means they're serious about moving in to this space.
  23. ProjectJourneyman
    Because it is so well known, it's a target for scammers. I wouldn't touch TON in any way, even if it's completely legitimate. It was sold at peak ICO, and Telegram got a lot of money for it. Then they just sat on it and did nothing. Good deal for them.
  24. ProjectJourneyman
    If you don't hold your gold, it's not your gold. I suggest if you want actual gold, then acquire it physically. Even though backed assets are of no use unless they are audited and the results are verifiable, many people don't check or care so you get a lot of fake backed coins. Beware.
  25. ProjectJourneyman
    I'll consider it play money and attempt to swing trade it with whatever coin I'm investigating at the moment. I have trouble doing that with any coin I really like though, because I don't want to sell and miss out. Can't go wrong with keeping BTC or ETH in hopes for a bull run though.
