I’ve never spent money on this site and don’t really intend to.

The $40 award could serve a few purposes.

It is “weird flex” which is pretty on brand for some corners of this place.

It also makes the ~3$ platinum award seem much more reasonable in comparison. It’s like $34 surf and turf. It makes the $17 hamburger a reasonable purchase because it’s half the price.

The magic portal awards don't quite line up, which kinda ruins their whole thing. Very disappointing

The funniest part is that argentumjust means silver in latin, so if someone gives argentum they're really just giving silver

I'm gonna have to go ahead and give you the level 0 award: "I'd give you silver if I had money!"

What a pile of useless crap awards. Do we really need hundreds of different awards? What good do they do anyway other than giving money to reddit?

Edit : I'm not undermining OPs post, I think it's nice someone trying to explain the confusing award system. Just saying I do not see the point of having more than 3/4 awards, and also I don't understand people going crazy giving awards, many times for things that end up being fake, like the infamous case of the cancer kid

I don't really think this is /r/dataisbeautiful material.

The X-axis is really bad at conveying the price differences between the tiers. I.m.o. it shouldn't have been a graphed visualisation.

Since I use a 3rd party app I don't see all the different awards given out, just the main coins - don't think I miss out in the slightest!

Now there’s 60+ ways to give money to Reddit.

I have only ever seen the option to buy and award silver gold and platinum.

Where does all this other stuff come from?
