Maybe an interesting time to point out a site I just ran across which is reddit-like, but (as far as I can figure) uses cryptocurrency to fund itself and pay contributors.

Steemit "Your voice is worth something" https://steemit.com/

Of all the supposed reddit-killers that have been put forward, this is notable because of the funding mechanism, and because everyone there seems so damn excited. However, a lot of the most popular articles seem to be about... Steemit itself.
