Comment from CEO Brendan Eich:

????BrendanEich@BrendanEich

Slightly down month for browser, big growth for search. We prioritized browser Google ad campaigns in higher retention regions over higher growth regions, which meant fewer, more engaged new users. Sustainable growth >> fast/fake growth w/ higher churn.

​

I am still bullish on BAT and Brave and i believe in a bright future of the project!
