The linked Reddit post shows a screenshot from Uphold's website. Brave don't have any control over what Uphold shows in their transaction log.

ok sorry, didn't noticed it was Uphold. Anyway I think it will be useful to put somewhere in Brave the reason of the transaction: proof is that people keep asking about this.

kenherbert commented 8 months ago

Brave already shows auto-contribute amounts in the Rewards activity statement. The issue is people see a transaction leaving their exchange account and complain about it without ever checking the activity statement in Brave.

maybe you're right, but you can't change people, while you can change a computer program.
