Here's my interpretation: a moon is a trustless ERC20 token; a coin is a database entry on the Reddit backend.

The thing is that you can earn moons on the platform by participating without spending real money. It’s doing it’s job by incentivizing people to grow the subreddit and participate through content creation and discussion. It’s really a way to market the subreddit without directly making ads. Similar to the brave browser.
Like with any subreddit, there’s going to be downvotes for unpopular opinions and stuff but moons encourage users to discuss and learn about different parts of crypto. People who provide information, laughs, and discussion will help grow the space.
