Brave, a privacy-oriented web browser with an integrated BAT token, is rapidly gaining popularity after the release of updated mobile applications for iOS and Android, as well as the launch of Brave Ads. The number of monthly active browser users has grown by 450% since 2018.

As the browser gains the interest of users, it seems that the level of demand continues to increase also due to positive feedback. This means that Brave users generally approve of the browser, after which the WoM effect is triggered: users tell their friends, families and colleagues about it. The pace of development of the popularity of Brave is impressive, and it is possible that soon it will be able to compete with Google Chrome.
