Your “suspension” of my transaction has caused me to miss a buy in on a dip in a crypto that I hold. Right now costing me hundreds, potentially thousands of dollars. UNACCEPTABLE. I will be also sending a copy of this to the Brave Browser community support page and closing my Uphold Account. As my Brave ads account has been frozen due to this “suspension”, costing me a small amount of revenue also.

Please Brave. Hurry up with the BAT to our own wallets and no more outside “centralized” ownership of our rewards.!!

Brave Rocks. You guys are awesome, THANKS !!

Change rewards wallet to Brave wallet

In order to comply with current financial regulations (such as FinCEN and OFAC requirements, or equivalent regulators outside the United States), Brave Rewards payouts at this time must first go through a regulated custodian (like Uphold/Gemini). Note that once you receive BAT into your custodial account, you can always withdraw it on-chain to your Brave Wallet.

That is not entirely accurate… I have been holding BAT in a Gemini account for over a year and they will not let me Withdraw to a personal wallet unless I wire transfer funds to them…They could just ask for I.D. or an ACH or Debit or… no they want a min. 20 dollar or more wire transfer and MAYBE they let you get to your BAT tokens…That makes the Brave Browser a 100 pct Scam… Use brave for an entire year then give us 20 dollars then maybe we give you less money in BAT in return… What a waste of time. 1yr of my time plus i pay 20 dollars then MAYBE ? i can have my BAT??? SCAMMMMMMMMMM!!!

That is a funny way of thinking you are free.

Comply, or we keep your money?

How is that consistent with protecting my privacy?
