THIRD PARTY TIME

📣
Brave Talk launches token-gated video calls!

Brave Software announced the latest Web3-friendly feature from Brave Talk; token-gated video calls, which (of course) includes POAPs. Web3 calling expands utility for Brave's browser-native Brave Wallet; together, they create the first-ever fully integrated Web3 live event platform that combines browser, wallet, and video. Token-gated calls opens up many new possibilities, such as communities holding calls only for holders of specific POAPs or other NFTs, or creators rewarding select fans who hold their POAPs with exclusive access to a video chat.

From the Brave team: "POAP was a natural fit for this important new aspect of Web3 Brave Talk. Using the existing infrastructure of POAPs made it simple to create a system for verifiable credentials. Integration of POAP was seamless and technical support was excellent. We are proud to support POAP and excited to expand our Web3 features and explore more unique ways that token-gating can bring value to video calls."
