Privacy browser Brave has launched a desktop update (1.63) for its 60 million users, adding support for Native SegWit Bitcoin wallets. Brave Wallet now supports sending and receiving funds from all types of Bitcoin addresses, including Legacy, Nested SegWit, etc. to ensure compatibility with third-party wallets. The update comes against the backdrop of Bitcoin’s growth in institutional adoption and its expansion as a foundation for innovation in areas such as NFT and DeFi. Brave said it will continue to add features to enhance privacy and support BRC-20 tokens and Ordinals storage, with plans for cross-platform launch later this year.
