Actually… Reddit has been experimenting with this for a few years in r/cryptocurrency where people earn “moons” depending on a series of rules based on their engagement, submissions, number of upvotes, community participation, and so on.
It’s mostly led to people gambling the system to earn money.
I definitely don’t think the current system is ready to be deployed on a site wide scale, but it would be interesting to see them try 🍿🍿
That’s interesting. I wonder how much of the gambling was intrinsic to the idea, and how much it was caused by how and where (like, you’re dropping a new crypto in a comm where people try to make money from crypto. Of course you’ll get some abuse)
Another scenario that could ruin this idea would be well-organised infiltration - like a half dozen posters coordinating to game the system together, so they have more power than they should, until they can force the community to become something else.
but it would be interesting to see them try 🍿🍿
Yes! Specially pre-IPO. Investors really do not like things changing suddenly, as they increase the associated risk.
