They already have crypto and NFTs. Take a look at Reddit Moons and the NFT Avatars

I never really cared about them tacking on a bunch of useless shit on top of Reddit. As a third-party-app and old.reddit user I kind of figured that if they monitized that piece and let me hang out in the underbelly then it wasn't really a problem. Why not have the normies subsidize the denizens of the old reddit, it's not like we aren't using adblock anyway.

But now that they've killed off the API it's only a matter of time before the come for old.reddit so I'm out before they get around to it.
