Basic Attention Token (BAT) is a digital advertising token built on the Ethereum blockchain, designed to revolutionize the digital advertising landscape through its integration with the privacy-focused Brave browser. The project aims to solve inefficiencies and privacy concerns prevalent in traditional online advertising by fairly rewarding users for their attention, while offering advertisers better returns and publishers a more equitable revenue share. BAT creates a transparent and decentralized advertising exchange, leveraging blockchain technology to connect advertisers, publishers, and users directly. This system improves ad targeting efficacy through on-device machine learning without compromising user data, a key differentiator from conventional ad platforms.
The core technology involves the Brave browser, which blocks invasive ads and trackers by default. Users who opt-in to view privacy-respecting Brave Ads are compensated with BAT tokens. These tokens can then be used to tip content creators and publishers, access premium content, or be exchanged for other digital assets. For advertisers, BAT serves as the payment currency for ad campaigns, ensuring their budget is spent on verified user attention. As an ERC-20 utility token, BAT’s tokenomics are central to its ecosystem, facilitating a novel attention-based economy. It represents a significant effort to establish a more ethical and efficient model for digital advertising within the burgeoning Web3 infrastructure, making the advertising experience less intrusive and more rewarding for all participants.
