I never expected anything when I put my Devilish Offer out there. But due to my writing about BAT and Brave frequently I did notice that many people did have BAT and no Uphold or Gemini Wallet.
These wallets are only available in 19 Countries or so. While Brave rewards can be received in 180 countries.
So what can people do with the Brave BAT rewards if they have no wallet? They can do what the rewards were intended for, reward content creators like me.
How to do that I explained already several times so just have a look if you are curious:
BATCoin Baby Returns - The Brave to Uphold/Gemini Disaster
So I offered this little deal!
Just for the people that have no wallet or do not like to KYC with Uphold and Gemini. Which I perfectly understand.
What I did not expect was that I actually created a market people were looking for.
People truly did not mind getting only 66.6% of their BAT value in Bitcoicash. April started slowly and I swapped about 4 BAT, May I did at least 10 BAT, June about 22 BAT, and July so far has been the best month ever with 45 BAT.
No, I do not expect this trend to continue this steep, but still it since the start I swapped about 80 BAT. And the great thing is, people are actually very happy with the service I offer.
Oopsie
The reason I only used BitcoinCash (BCH) so far is because of the low fees. Before I used to use Celsius for sending the BCH as they did not ask for any fees.....but we all know what happened to those funds.
So now I just use Uphold as they allow me to swap my BAT for BCH with no fees and charge a 9-cent fee for the transfer.
Now if you start looking at the financials I did not make any serious money, 25 BAT is about $10 at this time. So in a bull market, it would be $40. That is $10 per month.
So I would need to make a lot of Swaps to cover the loss of the 2 BCH I was holding on Celsius. I would need to swap about 1600 additional BAT.
Not expecting that to happen any time soon, but on the other hand, I did not expect to be swapping a single BAT.
Bottom Line
But crypto does allow us to be creative, to grind, and scrape a little bit left and right during this Bear market that seems to last forever.
So if you or anyone you know, are stuck with BAT Brave rewards and no wallet remember that there was a stupid baby out there that thought using Celsius was a good idea. I gladly take those BAT´s of your hand and offer you a Devilish Good Deal!
