      Brave Browser

      Just stumbled across this:

      Brave - private, secure and fast browsing. Support your favorite sites with micropayments - Brave features blockchain-based tokens which can be used to reward content creators.

      The new Brave browser blocks the ads and trackers that slow you down, chew up your bandwidth, and invade your privacy. Brave even lets you contribute to your favorite creators automatically
      What is Brave Payments?
      Brave Payments is a system that allows you to anonymously donate to content producers that you like. All you need to do is create a BAT wallet and add an amount. Then, when you visit websites, Brave Payments automatically distributes microdonations based on the time you devote. You can customize your list of favorite websites. You can even “pin” specific sites to receive a certain amount every month. It’s like becoming a patron. With regard to your privacy in Brave Payments, we do not know which BAT wallet is associated with the lists of sites that you choose to support. In other words – you, the user, have access to your browsing report but Brave (the company) does not have that information

        If you like brave, you might like pre-search. Earn tokens at your desk just searching with pre-search instead of google.

        Presearch

        And if you're into earning money check out Gems - Decentralized Mechanical Turk on the Blockchain - all based on micro tasks. You can earn up to $40-50 dollars a day. Now that's nothing for us. But in other parts of the world... then you'll recognise why this project has more potential than most.

          So we blockchain slave labour on $2 an hour with no rights and no representation. Loverly. Globalists must be creaming in their pants at this one.

            Get back to your keyboard!

            Actually you're already performing the micro-tasks and you don't even know it. The only difference is you're not getting paid for it. How many times in the last week have you faced the captcha challenge when logging onto a secure page? Identify which pictures contain a bus etc... did you know you're helping Google's AI to become smarter by answering those questions? You're working for Google. Well Gems takes it a step further allowing web developers to integrate to their mechanical turk to their websites. The task is performed but this time both webmaster and user are rewarded. Additionally it is doing a lot more than identifying objects in a picture, but also gestures, or which way a camera is moving.

            Do you get it yet? The network effects? No? Ok, here's another example. You know when you're on youporn and you select a category for a group of videos.....

              I help the AI become thicker by answering incorrectly. It's not smart enough to know the answer so let's me in anyway.
              Maybe tomorrow, I'll want to settle down. Until tomorrow, I'll just keep moving on.

                      I've recently learnt of two new projects that are like discovering Bitcoin in 2010.

                      Very exciting.
