Not to defend Brave, but this sounds like it was just a pop-up for the Gnome key wallet or something like that.

Yeah, it tries to use the keyring to store passwords every time you launch it even if you turned off password saving, the same applies to chrome and chromium browsers in general plus most password managers, tho not always. I tried to troubleshoot it, most forums online suggested to remove gnome key-rings if you are not using them but it kept reinstalling it. This plus brave being slower on mobile made me switch to firefox

Ah so that's what it was!

Sure, I just found it too annoying and the easiest solution was to uninstall Brave.
