Reddit, please don't do it.
<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>I just went ahead and read a few articles about Reddit converting points to crypto tokens.</p> <p>I personally think converting karma point to ERC20 tokens is a horrible idea.</p> <p>I've been feeling a little off about this but let me voice my opinion about this matter this time.</p> <p>Remember when this sub started equating karma or engagement points to moons? It became, at some point, unbearable. Luckily, there were some regulations implemented so that it becomes a little bearable.

There's a lot of trash out there that are certainly, surely gaining attention. Should we anticipate misinformation everyday on every sub of points hoarders? Reddit, I came here for contents, alright. Good contents.</p> <p>All those paid shillers, with that additional benefit (if ever it is implemented) will get proper motivation to create more and more contents.</p> <p>Here's what I think, and I don't need to convince you to agree with this. I think Reddit would just create another sub or I don't know, major sub? mini-Reddit? that will convert members's points to a crypto token. Do not mess Reddit as a whole, please. </p> <p>Well, again, this is my opinion. I'm certainly no expert, there a people out there who specializes in certain areas like this, and I jsut want to write this to give my unsolicited sentiment about it.</p> <p>This sure is now longer than I expected it to be, so well bye.</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/Apart_Maintenance611"> /u/Apart_Maintenance611 </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/qpvj6i/reddit_please_dont_do_it/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/qpvj6i/reddit_please_dont_do_it/">[comments]</a></span>Kind Regards R
