Reddit revamps Reddit Gold and now offers top posters real money.
Reddit announced an update this week for its Reddit Gold system, the one where people could at one time affix gold badges to top-performing posts and comments to signify who'd made excellent contributions on the social platform. That system has evolved over time in ways that Redditors didn't always agree with through things like Reddit Coins and many more awards that took accolades far beyond a simple seal of recognition.
The New Reddit GoldLike the premium Reddit Coins before it, the new Reddit Gold will still cost real-world money for people to purchase and then gift to other users. If you've got Reddit Gold stashed away and want to give it away, you can"long press the upvote icon on mobile directly within the post or comment" to award it, Reddit said. Doing so will give whatever that post or comment was a golden upvote icon to show off the award and perhaps draw more attention to it.
For those using Reddit Premium, the company announced months ago that the subscription service wouldn't be going way, but that it would"discontinue the monthly coin drip and Premium Awards" since Reddit Coins weren't going to be a thing anymore.
