The program was launched last year, users of the r / Currency and r / FortNiteBR subreddits received tokens for quality content. These are ERC-20 coins that operate on the Rinkeby testnet, but users have found a way to exchange them for real cryptocurrency.

Reddit is visited by over 50 million users daily. The announcement of a partnership with the Ethereum Foundation was another positive factor for the cryptocurrency. On January 25, its quotes renewed their all-time high near the $ 1500 mark.
