You could just use it for the fingerprint-blocking and built-in VPN, though.īrave is a browser with an emphasis on privacy and ad-blocking, but at the same time, it lets you earn cryptocurrency while you browse. It's very similar to Brave though not as polished since it's a more recent entry.

To earn crypto rewards (a maximum of 15 cents worth per day), you sign up for an account with a simple email verification. A toolbar at the top accesses AXchat, AXwallet, and AXpay (mobile app required) as well a the Member Center. Since (like nearly every other browser aside from Firefox) AXplorer is based on Google's Chromium rendering code, you shouldn't have a problem with site compatibility, and features like password remembering and extensions. You get a choice of four countries, random, or closest VPN server. I tested the built-in VPN by checking my IP address's location, and sure enough it reported that I was in London, England, even though I was actually in New York. That's based on the EFF's CoverYourTracks test, which did, however, report that with default settings the browser only provided partial tracking protection. The browser is available in versions for Android, macOS, iOS, and Windows.Īlong with Brave, AXplorer was one of only two browsers that effectively blocked fingerprinting (see intro) by randomizing the browser's digital fingerprint that trackers use to uniquely identify you on the web. Some will eschew anything with a whiff of cryptocurrency, but the alternative is to let the browser company, usually Google, know every detail about everywhere you go online. Like Brave, it ties in with its own digital currency (in this case, AXIA coin) to offer rewards for using the software.
