One of Japan's largest crypto exchanges and one of the largest Bitcoin brokers worldwide has just announced that it will add a new currency for trading.

In a press release dated April 9, the cryptocurrency exchange, BitFlayer, said it would start trading the Basic Education Token (BAT) from Brive in Japan.

<4 dir = "rtl" style = "text-align: justify;"> It has been four months since BitFlayer inserted a new currency because it has supported Ripple (XRP) since December 2019.

BAT was recently approved by the Trading Financial Supervisory Authority. GMO Coin, another stock exchange registered with the authority, just started trading last month.

With the world reducing exposure due to the outbreak of the Corona virus emerging (Covid 19) through shelter in homes, Brive saw a rise in the number of its users.

Part of the reason Brave's success was his dedication to user privacy. And with its commercialization as a privacy-oriented competitor for Google Chrome, the browser’s efforts to protect individual data saw a doubling of the number of users between 2018 and 2019.

Its tokens are almost common among users, as the browser sold $ 35 million in Basic Education Token in less than a minute in the initial launch of the cryptocurrency in 2017. p>
