Briefly describe your issue: UPHOLD IS HORRIBLE
What Operating System and Brave version are you using? (Menu --> About Brave) WIN 10
Who is your verified custodian? (Uphold/Gemini/bitFlyer)
It was Gemini for years until I had to get a new laptop, Now NO rewards Are you in a supported region? (see here for list of supported regions)
Yes, United States
WEN is Brave going to get any common sense about rewards?
Really…Uphold is the ONLY option. I’m NOT dealing with Uphold again!
I’ve been on Gemini and getting rewards there for about 2 years, but had to get a new laptop and now it won’t let me connect rewards to Gemini.
You might not care, but I am turning OFF ads until you wise up and give users another option.
Correct. Gemini got in a LOT of trouble and paid big fines. They have pulled out of some countries and had to greatly limit what cryptocurrency they handle in others, such as how they dropped BAT and all in Canada.
Brave has been pulling away from exchanges and trying to go directly on-chain. Those who were connected to Gemini were able to continue earning, but for well over a year now they have not allowed new devices/profiles to link to Gemini.
I pay attention to the page that shows the ONLY option to connect rewards as of today is Uphold. And I pay attention to someone who responds like an azz.
Wrong. Seriously, read the things I linked to you. Especially the final link. They just make you request an invitation for on-chain.
Just was replying back to you the same way you talked. Life lesson, you can’t speak like an azz and expect everyone else to be nice to you. And it is sad when features are released or communication given but people choose to come and complain like it’s not already a thing.
Solana been available for over 6 months. I and many others are connected to it. Like I said, seriously slow down and read. Your problem can be easily resolved.
@Hikane Shouldn’t be calling names, but you are right in that I wish people would read more. People just like to complain.
@wazahhbay just an FYI, high IQ does not mean you are smart. It especially does not mean you are one who makes wise decisions. For example, you may have been able to understand everything and not have said everything you did IF you had done research or even read the responses given to you.
However, you made the decision to ignore all of that and only argue instead. This means despite whatever level of intelligence you have, you chose not to use it and to act foolishly instead. Or maybe I’m giving you too much credit and you aren’t capable of understanding, in which case I can gladly simplify and explain it. I just was trying to speak to you as if you have a higher level of understanding and were only choosing to act the way you were.
I read everything you mentioned but I still have the same problem as @wazahhbay
The only option offered when I want to connect is Uphold.
It was okay at the beginning to use Uphold but 2 years ago, they raised the fees to withdraw. I would love to use Solana instead, but I’m still wainting for an invitation or a simple way to access it.
Correct, it’s the only option for most, at least by default.
Did you put in the little application that I linked to? If so, likely wouldn’t take too long for them to send out. At one point they were doing it weekly, but it slowed because of the holidays. Things should pick up a lot more here in the first few months of 2025.
They have answered multiple ways on this. Overall they aren’t wanting to make it easy. As was included in posts I linked to:
Long story short, they want more control as a way to prevent bots and fraudsters from easily being able to create things and earn, as it makes abusing the system way too easy.
On top of that, Brave had explained that it costs money to set up the initial connection. So each wallet created/linked would cost. If it was an automatic thing, then that would be a large upfront cost from people who likely aren’t going to maintain it.
So having people apply and then them approving helps to make sure they control costs, reduce fraud, and are able to not overwhelm their systems so that there are no issues on payments getting sent out.
Thank you so much for taking the time to explain. It makes a lot more sens now.
I did take the time to answer the little application you linked to. I even mentioned your pseudo as referring person
Have a nice week
