Overview
For those who are unaware brave browser both nightly and beta version have introduced a new card to their dashboard. This feature is not yet included in the base version as of 10/21/2020. This "card" as brave calls it leads to crypto.com's new exchange website which is notably different from the app which most are familiar with. This article will attempt to go over their new features offered.
Disclaimer
Those who follow my articles will be aware of the fact that i currently live in the U.S. This is only worth mentioning due to the region restriction on the new crypto.com features. I cant currently access however tech support assures me that U.S launch is underway.
Crypto.com
Several new features introduced recently are vastly different than previously covered by me so ill do my best to cover all of them. As of 10/21 time of writing this the CRO token is devalued from $0.14 to $0.10 many see this as a warning so i thought id bring it up.
Pay ID
A new system introduced in the app is the Pay ID system has been added to the withdraw menu. While they have had this feature it was not intended for merchants but contacts. This as well as the crypto.com card top up feature has been included with the buy and sell functions.
Crypto.com website
Broken into five separate tabs exchange, markets, the syndicate, trading arena, and supercharge. I'll do my best to cover functionality despite the inability to access the new features. I don't cover services i have not used but i do use their services just not all so its gonna get a pass. Given the regional restrictions these features are new to me not new as in brand new. Meaning up until recent i had not been able to even access the site functions however others had access previously.
The syndicate
Perhaps the best new feature is the syndicate function this is a listing event witch gives users a % off the market price of cryptocurrency. This happens on a specified date for a limited time on each sale.
The example above was the EGLD sale that ended 10/21 at 6:00 am.
Supercharge
A service in which users deposit CRO on the Crypto.com Exchange to mine defi tokens. Contribute the minimum quantity of virtual assets required for that specific supercharger event to qualify. There are regional restrictions as well see guide for restricted regions.
Trading arena
A competitive service that allows users to join various competitions. Competitions are linked to specific cryptocurrencies or services.
Exchange
Though most already use a exchange that is their preferred company. I just recently had my favorite Kucoin get hacked so i'm looking to replace it. Although not yet available to me it has to be the service i'm looking forward to most.
Markets
Although it is the exchange that has been separated in to specific markets in interest of due diligence ill list it.
Other promotional material
Brave browser
While they have not really that much different than what most users are familiar with. Including their service to explain the different features of Nightly/beta .
The nightly and beta versions at the time of writing are only available to mac and windows users. Lynux and ios/android have the base version. For any one who is a windows/mac user if you don't use the beta/nightly version i'd strongly suggest you to upgrade. Nightly and beta have a better interface & are easier to update. Nightly version has new updates as the name suggests nightly. Using these versions gives you access to new features before everyone else.

Thanks, I can see that the Bitcoin.com card has appeared in Brave (I don't use the nightly or beta version). I'm not clear as to why I would use this in favour of the existing integration with Uphold though? Uphold also allows BCH purchases.
