Now that they are setting up Cryptocurrencies in some subreddits (donuts in r/ethtrader and a couple of others that I don't recall right now) they should experiment with reddits where you initially "pay" for posting, commenting, up/down voting. Then somehow if your post gets upvoted or is heavily commented on, you get some of those tokens (shared revenue) as well as moderators in the subreddits that adopt that dynamic.
It's akin to the "payment per Email" (hashcash as spam prevention) idea that a lot of us have yearned for a long time, which would deter spammers and make people think twice before commenting, so maybe it would increase the content quality.
It would be an interesting experiment.
