I don't know if Brave-browser supports 32-bit, but the 'crypto-mining' 
issue is no problem. You can just turn it off if you don't want to 
support Brave. Otherwise it is an excellent browser, especially 
security-wise, and it comes with a fine ad-blocker built-in. And it is 
fast. As in really fast...
