Brave Browser is introducing a new feature that will allow its users to withdraw BAT earned from ads.
Previously, Basic Attention Token earned via ads or incentives on the Brave Browser were largely locked-up in user wallets.
According to a recent post on the Brave Community Forum, users who browse with Brave's Nightly build will be able to withdraw BAT from the Brave Rewards wallet after verifying and creating an account with Uphold.
Many Reddit users said that they had been waiting for a fiat-onramp to BAT for a long time and that enabling withdrawals will bring even more people into the Brave ecosystem.
After some users criticized Brave for only partnering with Uphold, a company representative defended the decision saying that starting with Uphold was "Natural" given the existing anonymous Brave Rewards wallet in the browser is provided by Uphold.
Brave has been working hard in the past couple of months to improve and expand the features on its Brave Browser.
Earlier in June, a leaked GitHub repository showed Brave was working on integrating Ethereum, Ledger, and Trezor wallets in their browser.
Back in May, Brave was said to be testing a new feature that would enable users to tip individual tweets.
The new initiative, which is part of Brave's broader push to reduce creator dependency on ads, is only available for Brave Nightly, a testing and development version of Brave.
