BitFlyer, a leading and highest traded exchange in Japan has announced their partnership with Brave browser, a privacy-focused browser.
The aim of this partnership is to develop “a crypto asset wallet for Brave Browser users”. As at the time of writing, no other info regarding the wallet has been made public.
Japanese traders who use Brave Browser are not allowed to earn Basic Attention Tokens (BAT), which is a native token of the Brave Browser. They are not allowed to earn those because of regulatory laws, so currently they only earn Basic Attention Token Point (BAP) but still are not allowed to exchange for money. With the new wallet creation, it could provide a means for Japanese Brave users to earn BAT instead of BAP or at least exchange it between the two.
“At this point, we are using points to reward users but there are some limits. [Through the partnership] we think it may be possible to go beyond that”.
More details about the crypto wallet will be revealed to the public in an upcoming event in Tokyo on the 30th of July.

Cointelegraph reported on another partnership Brave made with the BTS AKA The Bangtan Boys. They also partnered with Rush Gaming thereby allowing users to earn BAP for watching ads on the limited edition. Rush Gaming Is a Japanese esports team that develops browsers exclusively for the citizens of Japan.
