    Reddit deploys layer-2 solution aimed at scaling Ethereum-based community points



     “You’ll notice transactions happen much faster, and once you’ve created a
    Vault, you won’t have to keep claiming Moons every month,” said Reddit
    if the solution is migrated to the Ethereum mainnet. 

     

    Social media platform Reddit announced it would be using scaling
    solution Arbitrum to handle scaling its Ethereum-based Community Points
    system.

    In a Thursday announcement, Reddit administrator jarins said
    the platform had launched its own layer-2 rollup using Arbitrum
    technology for its rewards points. Reddit said it had deployed the
    layer-2 solution on top of the ​​Rinkeby testnet before it plans to
    migrate to the Ethereum mainnet.

    The platform cited Arbitrum’s
    features of being decentralized, being developer-friendly, and having
    broad ecosystem support in its decision. Arbitrum essentially “rolls up”
    transactions on a gasless sidechain with a separate set of security and
    consensus protocols, then reports the batched transactions to Ethereum.
    The development team at Offchain Labs has touted the project for scaling solutions.

    Users
    on the social media platform earn Community Points by posting certain
    content to earn rewards. In the r/Cryptocurrency subreddit, these come
    in the form of Moon tokens, and in r/FortNiteBR, the points are known as
    Bricks. Reddit said the integration of Arbitrum could potentially
    result in faster and cheaper transactions for the platform’s tokens.

    “You’ll
    notice transactions happen much faster, and once you’ve created a
    Vault, you won’t have to keep claiming Moons every month,” said Reddit. “They’ll just show up in your Vault like magic!”

    Though
    the tokens from Community Points are popular on the platform, there is
    seemingly no clear consensus among crypto analytics sites how many are
    currently in circulation. Data from Etherscan shows
    roughly 67 septillion — that’s 24 zeros at the end — MOONs have been
    distributed to more than 78,000 holders. However, CoinMarketCap claims there is a total supply of only 6,962,504 tokens.

    Redditors
    using the Moon tokens have already discovered practical financial
    applications simply by expressing their opinions on the platform. In
    January, a user by the name of satoshinakamoto7 claimed to have used MOON tokens to pay for their rent. Another traded the tokens for Bitcoin (BTC) before the price of the crypto asset rose to more than $30,000 in January.

    “Today’s
    launch is a big step forward, but our work is far from done,” said
    jarins. “Our goal is to cross the chasm to mainstream adoption by
    bringing millions of users to blockchain.”
