Edit: LAST QUESTION!

Are there pros/cons to choosing a lower vs higher amount of earned BAT to give back to content creators?

Besides that, for my sake anyway,

/thread.

A lot of good info in here though, thanks to everyone who replied!

I've read a couple people saying they lost their BAT when their computer crashed or they otherwise replaced it and reinstalled Brave, because they hadn't "backed up" (using their words in case theres a difference going over my noob head) their BAT and moved it to a wallet.

So my questions are:

1. Is the Brave account/Brave rewards tied to your specific device?

2. Can you login to Brave and access your account/wallet (I say "wallet".. However Brave stores your earned BAT) on a new device? I will be getting a new computer soon and want to know if I should just wait until I do - although a little late, as I did just download and open Brave after weeks of excitement finally got to me. Having already installed Brave, should I wait for the new computer before signing up for the BAT rewards?

3. Is there a difference between "backing up your BAT", and moving BAT to a wallet?

4. What is a good wallet to use for BAT?

Thank you for making me aware of Brave and BAT, and thanks in advance for any guidance in making sure I do it right.
