wait until you hear about the blockchain they just released for the fortnite subreddit. You can earn "bricks" in order to gain features like posting gifs and emotes.

While reddit's never been amazing it feels like the quality is going downhill faster than before slowly turning into youtube level comments.

They released it to both Fortnite and CryptoCurrency subs at the same time. It's called "Moons" in ths CC sub.

Apparently they are ERC-20 tokens, and in the CC sub, there are frontpage posts already asking how to buy "Moons".
