UPDATE (6/1): You may notice some changes in the feature with the new iOS app release. We're working closely with Apple and will share updates as available.

Today we’re launching a new feature in limited communities called Community Points[2]. Community Points are a way for users to be rewarded for their contributions with a piece of the 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/FortNiteBR are called Bricks.

A Brick

How do you get Bricks?

Bricks are distributed monthly based on individual contributions (comments, posts, etc.) that people make in r/FortNiteBR. Reddit karma provides a basis for measuring people’s contribution, but the final decision is up to the community.

What can you do with Bricks?

Bricks 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.

Note: Bricks are not affiliated with Epic Games.

On the Blockchain

Bricks exist on the Ethereum blockchain, independently of Reddit, where they can only be controlled by you (just like Bitcoin!). This means once you’ve earned them and they’re in your Vault, neither Reddit nor moderators can take your Bricks away or decide what you do with them. They’re all yours.

How to get started with your Reddit Vault

The first Bricks will soon be distributed to every active contributor in the subreddit with at least 100 karma. You can get started by claiming your Bricks in the new Vault[3] section of the Reddit mobile app, which also includes more details on the start-up process and how Bricks work.

Thank you r/FortNiteBR

We are launching Community Points today in a couple of subreddits that have opted into this experiment and with whom we have been working closely. As some of you know, our team has been developing features for r/FortNiteBR for over a year now. We are very excited to launch our biggest project yet and hear what you think. None of this would be possible without your continued help and support. So thank you!

We’ll be sticking around to answer any questions you have, so please ask away in the comments below.

Hey folks, AdamSC1 here, moderator for /r/cryptocurrency (general crypto discussion) and /r/ethfinance (high quality discussion related to Ethereum, the platform Community Points are built on, and Ethereum finance).

Wanted to provide an FAQ guide to Community Points and Cryptocurrency for those who aren't familiar!

Reddit Community Points is a new point system launching in select subreddits.

Users earn these points based on their contributions to Reddit, and can redeem them for various rewards.

Each community has their own points. Today /r/Cryptocurrency is launching "Moons" and /r/FortniteBR is launching "Bricks"

These points exist as blockchain tokens on the Ethereum blockchain (although the are on a test network for now).

If you need an additional support you can check out the unofficial support community /r/CommunityPointsHelp

See the below screenshot in where you see the vault option as it becomes available.

Be sure you are on the most recent app version as stated in the post.

When you click your name in top left it will appear as an option.

If you do not see the option, do not worry. It is being rolled out to all users over the course of the next 24 hours. Periodically refresh your app to see if you have been updated (completely close and reopen).

In addition, we'd like to thank /u/AdamSC1, a mod of /r/Cryptocurrency, for the write up in this comment on some other FAQs. Thank you!!

I really don't like this. Reddit is a platform about discussion where the best opinion is rewarded. Adding a status symbol in each community defeats the whole purpose and might result in high-brick users getting upvoted more than low-brick users.

In addition, adding gifs and emotes defeats literally the entire point of reddit being a discussion. If you are too lazy to actually write a response to a post, you shouldn't respond. Now the top comment on every post is going to be an overused and reposted gif.

All these features do is make reddit more like twitter. If I wanted to use twitter, I'd use twitter.
