Any company that cites "challenging economic environment" while by all measures the economy is overheated, is full of shit. Hackernews discussion first comment nails it, oh they took VC money and now don't control their own company as they have to pay the piper and lay off people for venture capital reasons.

They've been a grift for a long time now, they made it nearly impossible to take ownership of their BAT bs via device registration locks. If you updated your phone or desktop OS 3x you no longer could register as owner of their shitty wallet.

May have been fixed by now (i doubt it highly lol).
