RIP. The writing was on the wall over a year ago when Biden's unconstitutional SEC decided to go after their main selling point. The LBRY coin would let creators monetize and viewers support a parallel economy. We can't allow that. Odysee doesn't have any technical superiority over Rumble beyond that.
Lbry and Brave were the only 2 corps I'm aware of rolling out their own coins that attempted something productive with their coin. I could find a few others if I spent an hour searching. I'm sad because Odysee was half way to the kind of content and presentation I wanted, which is c. 2007 Youtube. Rumble is some sort of divergent path for television 2.0 with partnership deals and the like. I hope Rumble remains viable as Youtube competition, but that's a very small yet ordinary slice of YT's audience
Brave Rewards doesn't go all the way in reforming the marketing industry, so you get irritating ads. Fixing that is a multi-trillion dollar problem. You also have to sign up for a KYC exchange, that's not Kraken, to fully utilize Brave's crypto offering. It will be very tragic for the intermediate user if Brave Inc. also suffers financial roadblocks.
