Brendan Eich is the creator of JavaScript and the co-founder and CEO of Brave Software, makers of Brave, the Web3 privacy-focused browser.

Why you should listen

Brendan helped build Web1 and Web2 through his creation of JavaScript and Mozilla – JavaScript's unintended consequences - which Brendan has described as "Frankenstein's monster" led to a toxic digital ecosystem and was a catalyst for the targeted advertising and invasive tracking that consumers experience today on the internet.

The Brave Browser is an open-source, privacy-by-default web browser with a blockchain-based digital advertising platform and crypto wallet. Brave Wallet, a crypto wallet built into the Brave desktop browser, and mobile apps, enables Brave users to store, manage, grow, and swap crypto from a single wallet. Unlike most crypto wallets, the Brave Wallet does not require extensions; it's browser-native, reducing security risks and reliance on extra CPU and memory. Users can transact with almost any crypto asset with safety and performance, as well as connect with other wallets and Web3 DApps.
