🚀 Brave Hits 100M Users: Privacy Wins, Ads Cry! 🦹‍♂️

by

In a stunning turn of events that has left the internet both baffled and mildly impressed, Brave Browser announced on October 3, 2025, that it has somehow managed to convince 101 million people to use its browser every month. Yes, you read that right-101 million monthly active users (MAU) across desktop and mobile, with 42 million daily active users (DAU) who apparently have nothing better to do. This yields a DAU-to-MAU ratio of 0.42, which is either a sign of incredible loyalty or a cry for help. 🧐

Brendan Eich, the CEO and co-founder (who you might remember from such hits as “inventing JavaScript”), framed this milestone as proof that the world is finally waking up to the idea of a “privacy-first web.” Because, let’s face it, who doesn’t love a browser that promises not to sell your soul to advertisers? Eich also mentioned that Brave will continue to prioritize privacy as it dives headfirst into the murky waters of artificial intelligence (AI). Because nothing says “privacy” like a browser that’s also trying to predict your every move. 🤖

The company also boasted about its Brave Wallet, which apparently supports “multi-chain asset management”-a phrase so techy it makes your brain hurt. And let’s not forget Brave Rewards, the opt-in ad program tied to the Basic Attention Token (BAT), which is basically a way to pay you to look at ads. Genius? Or just a clever way to make you feel better about capitalism? You decide. 🤑

Oh, and did we mention that BAT now has over 99% of its 1.5 billion supply in circulation and is among the most widely held tokens on Ethereum? Because, you know, nothing screams “success” like a cryptocurrency that’s actually being used. 🚀

So, congratulations, Brave. You’ve managed to make privacy cool again, and somehow convinced millions of people that ads can be a good thing. Here’s to the next 100 million users-may they all be as confused and slightly amused as we are. 🥳
