Today, very exciting, is Near Protocol and Aurora. Near represents the next generation of blockchains, helping to bring Web 3 to the masses. And Aurora is an Ethereum Virtual Machine, or EDM, built on the near protocol. And as a brave version
1.42, as many of you know, Aurora is now available as a preloaded blockchain for all brave wallet users, enabling access to fast and low fee transactions. You can actually read our blog about this partnership and integration. Just go to brave.com/blog and it's like one of the top three
One of the three most recent blogs I believe. But please do that after this basis. Let's give our guests the full floor here and our full attention. For anybody visiting from outside of the back community today, of course, welcome, welcome, one and all. We are the basic attention token community, of course.
Most of you here know us, but I got to do the walkthrough for anybody new, anybody who's stepping in. So the basic attention token or that is an Ethereum-based utility and rewards token. You can think of it as a unit of account between the three main parties on the web, which Brave believes to be
users, publishers, and advertisers. In a new blockchain-based, privacy-respecting, advertising paradigm, piloted by the Brave Web browser. And Brave, of course, is a fast and secure web browser that blocks creepy third-party ads, including YouTube ads, very important, and trackers by default.
allows users to earn that for instead opting into view ads that respect their privacy. That can be used to support your favorite content creators or digital publishers or even causes and nonprofits through a mechanism that we call tips or automatic monthly donations
a Patreon-style contribution system that is built right into the browser natively. Bat tokens can also be used to purchase items in several blockchain-based games. We've had partnerships with gaming platforms like Gala Games and even Splinterlands where you could purchase in-game NFTs.
