Topic: [ANN] r/Cryptocurrency Moons 🌙 Introducing Reddit’s Moons Token 🌕 (Read 95 times)
Moons are honestly still somehow cryptos best-kept secret (mostly thanks to being on testnet still) but have such a huge upside potential due to the association with reddit. I can't help but believe they will explode once they hit mainnet. celesti.trade and moonswap have also recently made it very easy to trade them which is bringing a lot more people to moons.
Introducing r/CryptoCurrency Moons

Buy Moons on https://MoonsSwap.com Using BUSD (BSC)
Celesti using XLM (XLM network) and Honeyswap using xDai (xDai Network).
TL;DR: Moons are a new way for people to be rewarded for their contributions to r/CryptoCurrency. Claim your Moons in the new Vault (http://www.reddit.com/vault) section of the Reddit iOS or Android app! They represent ownership in the subreddit, they are tokens on the Ethereum blockchain controlled entirely by you, and they can be freely transferred, tipped, and spent in r/CryptoCurrency.

Today we’re launching a new feature in limited communities called Community Points(https://www.reddit.com/community-points/). Community Points are a way for users to be rewarded for their contributions with a unit of ownership in their subreddit. Community Points can be earned, tipped, won, collected, and spent on unique items within a community. Each subreddit has its own stylization of Community Points, and the ones in r/CryptoCurrency are called Moons.

How do you get Moons?
Moons are distributed monthly based on individual contributions (comments, posts, etc.) that people make in r/CryptoCurrency. Reddit karma provides a basis for measuring people’s contribution, but the final decision is up to the community.
Initially, 50 million Moons will be distributed based on karma earned in the subreddit to date. The amount distributed each following month will start at 5 million and decrease by 2.5% every cycle, so that the total number of Moons distributed over time will approach a maximum cap of 250 million.

What can you do with Moons?
Moons can be traded freely and used for any number of purposes within the community. At this time, they can be used to display reputation within the subreddit, unlock exclusive features like badges and GIFs in comments with a Special Membership, and add weight to votes in polls.

On the Blockchain
Moons exist as ERC-20 tokens on the Ethereum blockchain, where they are managed by a suite of smart contracts that handle balances, transfers, distribution/claiming, and purchasing Special Memberships. The smart contracts and mobile apps have been reviewed and audited by Trail of Bits, an independent security firm with blockchain expertise.
As blockchain tokens, Moons are independent of Reddit. Once you’ve earned them, neither Reddit nor moderators can take your Moons away or decide what you do with them. They’re all yours.
Community Points are currently on the Rinkeby testnet (through summer 2020). We plan to migrate Community Points to the Ethereum mainnet, and Points balances will be carried over.
Note: If you send Moons to outside non-Reddit wallets or contracts, you are sending them to testnet addresses. These tokens will not show up in outside software (e.g. wallet apps, Etherscan) unless you switch to Rinkeby and use the testnet Moons contract address (0xDF82c9014F127243CE1305DFE54151647d74B27A).
How to get started with your Reddit Vault
The first Moons will soon be distributed to every active contributor in the subreddit with at least 100 karma. You can get started by claiming your Moons in the new [Vault](https://www.reddit.com/vault/) section of the Reddit mobile app, which includes more details on the start-up process and how Moons work.
Please note that you will need to set up your Vault the first time you access it, and you will need to be on the latest version of the Reddit app (2020.17.0 or later). We will be rolling the Vault out over the course of the day, so if you don’t see it now, please check back later.
