    I’m not sure this is correct.

    The community tokens crypto has been around since 2020. I think that’s separate from the new gold monetization scheme.

      I don’t really use Reddit anymore, but my understanding was some subreddits had crypto coins, but Reddit withdrew gold and formally started supporting these crypto tokens instead after the API exodus had happened.

        That is what I remember as well. After the API change, they did this whole crypto-instead-of-gold announcement.

        Are they back to their traditional gold now?
