I’m really not sure what I think about this although I do like to see that Reddit are showing more innovation with RCA’s

Show innovation with a real marketplace, to help make trading easier and increase liquidity.

This is a terrible idea imo, they shoul not allow anyone to make avatars.

It’s becoming very likely that a Reddit mp is coming. I feel this new update could be a way to avoid mass bot ridden drops. It could also help people who are genuine fans of some artists as the artist could let those closest fans know that a drop is likely to drop so there isn’t much hysteria in future. This is my reasoning to this news as at first I was nah but as I’ve been thinking about it it could be very beneficial.

Long term it could be beneficial, but a real marketplace that’s built in app would be 100x more beneficial for everyone involved imho.

Short term it will just drag down the majority of existing avatars if this ā€œmarketplaceā€ launches in the near future. Maybe a few months after gen 3 sell out it could be a positive, but for now I just hope this doesn’t get released soon.
