Yeah i know, but i havnt seen any of those grants ever. im pretty sure they burned their whole stack in early 2019.
That might be true. When I signed up on mobile I got a 20bat grant, which I donated over here immediately. Since then I've gotten probably 40bat in ad revenue from using brave on my desktop which has also all gone to the farms. Also from what Null said in the OP here, he was getting a good amount of Bat from their UGP for shilling the browser. (I'll probably look more into it when Im home, researching on mobile sucks ass)

I've done about the same. It seems that will continue to be possible, so it's not a dead loss, although if they think just partially fucking us is going to stop the horde of chimping out psychos, they're sorely mistaken.
 
Only the complementary ones they hand out as freebies are not transmissible, but that isn't a big deal, doesn't usually amount to much.

The grant I got converted to $US 5, not much on it's own but a significant amount when you've got hundreds of people directing it Null's way.

It's also a pain for those of us in regions where there are no ads offered. As yet, Uphold doesn't allow Visa or Mastercard funding so it's a real PITA for those of us outside the US banking system to get funds into Uphold in order to have them transferred to Null.
 
They do not work in my region or something, does that mean I cannot receive free coins to send this way?

I got an initial grant of 20 BAT for using Brave on mobile. No grants since then, though, and ads aren't available in my region. Even that initial 20 BAT helps, though, if Null can actually receive it.

Are the payment processors like Skill and Neteller used by offshore casinos an option for KF?

Our situation is uniquely terrible.

the most KF thing that can be said.
consider updating the 'supporting the forum' at the bottom of the page, still says youre on brave BAT program.
 
Interesting, the tweets in that chain that Eich was responding to are deleted. Did someone forget to archive?

Might as well repost this here, since this thread will be more active for a while:

The current OP is my attempt at explaining the tenuous situation any US based company in crypto is in.
How will this affect things going forward? Like someone else said, I wouldn't mind another merch drive.
 
I donated my remaining 5 BAT earlier today without encountering any error message or refusal, and Brave still provides the "Send a Tip" button when I click on the BAT icon on my browser while on KF. So, what, did the BAT I just donated vanish or go back to the Brave devs? It's super disingenuous if they're going to continue the superficial appearance of allowing donations to the Farms without actually sending the tips to the intended recipient.

Fortunately, the amount I had left on-hand wasn't much more than pocket change, so it's not too devastating for it to disappear into the void, but it's still frustrating and confusing.
 
I've only ever gotten BAT from ads, never saw any of these "grants" people are talking about so I don't even know what changed. Did I miss the free crypto train?
