The company also features Brave Ads, which delivers advertising without the use of cookies, enabling advertisers to connect with audiences that are typically hard to reach. Users of Brave can earn cryptocurrency rewards for their attention to ads, while content creators can benefit from new revenue opportunities. Unlike other browsers and search engines, Brave prioritizes user privacy and offers a unique model that benefits both users and advertisers.
