    That’s not karma. Those are community points, which are subreddit-only points that have been on the blockchain for years.

    If you’re not on the crypto subreddits, you’ve probably been blissfully unaware they exist. But it sure gets the crypto subreddits excited, especially when they can announce that their pet coin is moving to a New And Improved Blockchain ™.
