What is Basic Attention?
Basic Attention Token, known as BAT, is built to reform digital advertising by rewarding users for their attention. It is closely tied to the Brave browser, where people can opt into privacy-respecting ads and earn BAT, which can then flow to content creators. The token launched in 2017 through one of the faster-selling token offerings of its time. BAT runs on Ethereum and several other networks and sits at the intersection of crypto, privacy, and online advertising. Its model aims to give users and publishers a fairer share of ad value. You can follow the Basic Attention Token price and hold BAT in a self-custody wallet.

BAT wallet questions, answered
What's the best Basic Attention wallet app?
That depends on what you want to do with your BAT. If you're holding only, any non-custodial wallet works. If you also want to use Basic Attention for real-world spending through the Zypto Premium Visa Card, pay bills, top up phones, or swap into other assets, Zypto App is purpose-built for that while still being fully non-custodial.

Can I use Basic Attention for real-world spending without selling it?
