This isn't the first time Reddit has tried something like this.
Back around 2015 they hired a dev called Ryan X Charles to build a Bitcoin based rewards system into Reddit.

It proved to be a difficult task because it was right about the time that the Bitcoin core devs started actively discouraging Bitcoin's use in payments. This paired with a new investment round at Reddit resulted in the project being abandoned.
I do believe if they had seen this project through, Reddit would be in a much more healthy state right now
