Reddit's Valuation Rises From $6 Billion to $10 Billion in Six Months

Last summer, Reddit launched its own ERC 20-based tokens which are used to reward users for contributing to the platform. The tokens, dubbed $MOONS and $BRICKS, are distributed to members of the /r/Cryptocurrency and /r/FortniteBR subreddits, respectively, as part of Reddit's new "Community Points" initiative.

The move comes after Sotheby's expanded its support of NFTs with the launch of the so-called "Sotheby’s Metaverse." The British auction house says the new platform allows users to view digital art available at auction. Sotheby's plans to sale a collection called "Natively Digital 1.2: The Collectors" from Oct. 18 to 26. The collection features 53 works from 19 NFT collectors.
