I don't know if I am missing a point or not but I don't exactly quiet get the hype as to me, it just chrome with poor man's uBlock Origin and their own crypto in the mix.

Like how it that different from me using ether Librewolf or even Google Chromium and install uBlock Origin compare to Brave?

Librewolf

It's a different platform, you won't participate in the monopolization of Chromium as the only browser worth building webpages for.

Google Chromium and install uBlock Origin

AFAIK you'd have to do some tweaking under the hood to achieve the same effect, particularly when it comes to de-coupling Google from Chrome. My impression is that you'd be closer to Brave if you started with Chromium or even Ungoogled-Chromium.

One problem with LibreWolf is that it has very weak security. The exact same goes for FF and other FF based browsers.

The Chromium monopoly sucks tho.

Edit: grammar. :p
