The privacy-focused Brave browser has begun developing its own decentralized cryptocurrency exchange (DEX). The launch date remains unknown.

According to the project’s technical roadmap, Basic Attention Token (BAT) holders will be able to pay the fees for the new DEX aggregator’s services. A similar arrangement has been implemented by Binance with its Binance Coin (BNB).
The developers also promised to modify the Brave Wallet. Among the changes are a new design, support for mobile and desktop versions, and a JavaScript Ethereum API.
The company plans to add bespoke features for using the decentralized finance and non-fungible token (NFT) markets, as well as integrating support for buying and selling digital assets with bank cards.
Brave has expanded its services after its monthly active users surpassed 20 million people.
Earlier in January, the developers of the crypto browser integrated support for the IPFS protocol (‘interplanetary file system’). In February, the Brave marketplace was augmented with NFTs.
