Brave's failures are all related to their double-bonehead move of shitcoin minting + incorporating as an official company.

Brave should be a pure open-source project using LN as its built-in currency. The project could fund itself just like all wallets do...by having defaults that direct transactions thru their servers and take a transaction fee.....90% of users won't ever touch the defaults....yet those who are concerned can modify to other servers.

Frankly Eich has turned out to be a huge let-down and frankly deserves to fail. He steadfastly refuses to adjust his strategy even though the landscape has changed dramatically in last 4 years. He is locked into the silicon-valley VC addiction to shitcoin minting + kyc. He really has turned out to be a braindead boomer
