   Question for !fnetworks members:
   
   What do you think about https://creators.brave.com/ ? Should I get Federati Networks set up to receive support in the form of BAT cryptotokens? It might be a way to defray part of our hosting costs.

      Having looked at it, it might be problematic for you/site as looking at the publisher TOS unless you have a legit biz. Maybe.

      I was looking at it for my blog, not that it gets a lot of action but if I could get something from it...
      
      There is also the required info for registering an account with Uphold.
      
      >As part of creating your Publisher Wallet, you must authorize Uphold to provide us your Publisher Wallet address. You agree to comply with Uphold’s Terms and Conditions, available at https://uphold.com/en/legal/membership-agreement, in connection with your use of the Publisher Wallet. You must complete all additional verification steps required to become a verified member with Uphold.
      
      And then there is this...
      
      Brave Uphold

      While I don't see any issues if you are already setup as a biz there could be an issue for those who are trying to stay as anonymous, not to mention the tax implications as it would be considered and probably reported as income.
      
      If you want to do it, go for it. I will even use Brave to read this site to help support if you do it. Firefox has started to annoy me with little things and maybe it is time for a browser change.

         @geniusmusing I had not gotten that far yet. I saw that @moon@shitposter.club is getting some revenue to help with his instance’s costs and figured it might be useful here.
         
         Attaching an unknown processor to my bank account is a no go without some investigation first. … And positive impressions of both their integrity and their security.
