Yesterday I was trading on robosats and today I can do it no more:

roboodexarjwtfryec556cjdz3dfa7u47saek6lkftnkgshvgg2kcumqd.onion is blockedThis page has been blocked by Brave ERR_BLOCKED_BY_CLIENT

I'll have to resort to my custom-configured Firefox or Tor Browser.

P.S. I am using Brave installed from a flatpak.

Brave is a shitcoin, why people use it?

I used to use it for its adblocker that block ads on youtube very well. Now use thorium instead of Brave.

No, they are shitcoining. NO respect for those.

The ironic thing is that Brave only just added Bitcoin support to their browser wallet https://brave.com/blog/bitcoin-wallet/

But they did so most likely because of ordinals and BRC-20 tokens.

Later this year, we’ll add support for more Bitcoin account types, which will allow users to store BRC-20 tokens and Ordinals in Brave Wallet—and make all of these features available across all desktop and mobile versions of Brave.

I don't see anything in their github repos that would be blocking that domain specifically

How do you do it? Git clone the repo (it takes a long time to clone it)? And then

grep -irl "roboodexarjwtfryec556cjdz3dfa7u47saek6lkftnkgshvgg2kcumqd.onion"

By the way, it is been more than a year that they blocked Proton Mail's protonmailrmez3lotccipshtkleegetolb73fuirgj7r4o4vfu7ozyd.onion

Brave is a bloated (with shitcoins) capitalist that needs to die.

I just did a github search.

From google, the protonmail issue seems to be related to either some settings or from the brave sheild itself:

Perhaps try those here.

Forgive my ignorance...but aren't you supposed to ALWAYS use Tor with Robosats?

Yes, you are. Brave has TOR built-in and allows you to launch a separate window for browsing over Tor.

I don't like brave at all, to withdraw your brave token you need to do KYC on a crappy exchange, what can you expect from them.

Strange things start to happen in Brave ecosystem. Is there some sort of coup there? 🤔
