About this episode
Brian Bondy is the co-founder, CTO, and lead developer for Brave Software, developer of Brave, the open-source, privacy-by-default web browser with a blockchain-based digital advertising platform and crypto wallet.
Why you should listen
Brave is an open-source, privacy-by-default web browser with a blockchain-based digital advertising platform and crypto wallet. Brave Wallet, a crypto wallet built into the Brave desktop browser, and mobile apps, enables Brave users to store, manage, grow, and swap crypto from a single wallet. Unlike most crypto wallets, the Brave Wallet does not require extensions; it's browser-native, reducing security risks and reliance on extra CPU and memory. Users can transact with almost any crypto asset with superior safety and performance, as well as connect with other wallets and Web3 DApps. The Brave Wallet supports all EVM compatible chains and L2s, and unlike other wallet extensions, the Brave Wallet is built with an open MPL license, enabling developers to make contributions easily. Brave believes that the crypto ecosystem should not only be open source, but should also be enabled via tools and wallets with an open license.
Brave will soon integrate the Solana blockchain into the Brave browser, providing default Solana ecosystem support to Brave's 42 million monthly active users and 1.3 million verified Creators. Brave will soon default to Solana for cross-chain and Solana native DApps.
The Solana blockchain enables faster low-fee transactions which help in the adoption of DeFi and Web3.
