Yep, this is what the future of awards on Reddit looks like
Yeah, I am not sure if this is actually news. I got the impression from what Android Authority dug up that this new thing was going to be regular USD. It looks like they're going to be asking for bank account information and tax forms for anyone who wants to become eligible for payouts, and I don't know if they would be doing that for crypto...?
I was confused with the section showing awards when an email just went out saying Reddit are ditching awards. But if this is indeed from two years ago, that would make sense.
