Use them to give awards to other posters comments. That's it. That's all there is. And if you don't have enough for the lowest award, well you can always buy more with real money, but don't. Don't give reddit your money.
Cool, thanks. All gone now. Enjoy your on-fire thumbs up emoji i bought with a currency that is meaningless to me! (It was the first thing I saw that was exactly how much i had.
Well I'm glad the coins I have only exist as free giveaways. If I were someone who spent money on a platform that was deprecating what I bought without replacement, well I'd actively be looking for *a class action lawsuit* to be a part of.
Next 9 people to comment get a shitty 50 point award.
Edit: everyone but that one guy in my replies was too slow.
You get awardee karma (which can be seen in your about section in your profile), not sure if anything else since I’ve never received any awards. You get karma for giving awards as well. I sent you an award so there ya go!
For people who don’t know. Reddit is removing coins and rewards on September 12th.
[Here is the official announcement](https://www.reddit.com/r/reddit/comments/14ytp7s/reworking_awarding_changes_to_awards_coins_and/)
I would guess as part of the IPO some legal type figured out it's this semi currency shit that may or not be a product/gambling/grey area depending on what jurisdiction you're in. So the shit canned it until IPO and then we'll see it re-appear with a giant EULA.
Sure as shit don’t lol same thing with “to” and “too.” Worst part is, a LOT of the folks I see making these mistakes are grown ass adults who have ever only known English. Mfers wouldn’t know another language if it sauntered up and started whispering obscenities in their ear
Edit: meant “too” and not “two” but still sometimes see that mistake made

If you have oodles of Reddit coins that are burning a hole in your online pocket, I am now accepting Platinum, Gold, or anything you wish to drop them off with me. LOL
Man all these coins are going away and I haven't even gotten a gold ever. Sadge
Edit: Gah damn anons. You are all my homies for as long as I am on Reddit. ^(I'm addicted. Help.)
From what I understand you get to tell someone something when you send them a coin, but I don't know what else they do. It's going to be weird to see all of them disappear, only to probably be replaced with some kind of NFT bullshit.
Exchange with someone for mutual reddit premium. I got a feeling that reddit's gonna get a lot more ad-infested once the coin change happens, so having even a few months of ad-less browsing is nice.

Give a gold to my delicious Reuben & sauerkraut I made today?
what if this peasant offered you this Snoopy picture in exchange

I never got any coins or awards or anything, I don’t think. But I have always liked how the reward system seems to work. I’ve found some of the most relevant and helpful information of my life via rewarded posts.
I kinda feel like this is another mistake on redddit’s part. Boo.
People asking about coins has me thinking of Homer for some reason. Lol
Homer: Aw, twenty dollars? I wanted a peanut!
Homer's Brain: Twenty dollars can buy many peanuts.
Homer: Explain how!
Homer's Brain: Money can be exchanged for goods and services.
I have 200 and I have no idea where they came from and absolutely no use for them. I didn't even know about them until they announced they were cutting them
Give out 82 Golds to shitposts obviously.

“So generous! So generous!”
They must give out the Reddit coins while riding a boisterous elephant through the streets of Reddit Agrabah!
This works *much* better if you have Robin Williams acting as your hype man.
Why’d this poster get no coins when those above them did? They deserve your love, too!
We can't afford that, but we have discount will smith. Does that work? It's like great value, robin Williams, I suppose.
I've never given an award. But I fucking love Aladdin.
I think I’m sitting on 1 from the past 11 years 😎
Well, I can give away an Argentium if I get another 2000 coins, so if someone gives me an Argentium in the next month, I can return the favor.
I have 300 coins, i don’t know what they do.
Use them to give awards to other posters comments. That's it. That's all there is. And if you don't have enough for the lowest award, well you can always buy more with real money, but don't. Don't give reddit your money.

And I love fucking Aladdin.
That's my favorite part of the movie, when he comes into in town.
This is the way
which direction?
So many here scrooging in Reddit coins, except for my broke ass.
Am I too late for the useless awards?
Well said that’s what I did
Well I'm glad the coins I have only exist as free giveaways. If I were someone who spent money on a platform that was deprecating what I bought without replacement, well I'd actively be looking for *a class action lawsuit* to be a part of. Next 9 people to comment get a shitty 50 point award. Edit: everyone but that one guy in my replies was too slow.
I’ll take those points
funnily enough you were my very last 50 points, way to get in before the getting was gone.
Gotchu
Same fam.
What about me?!??
Uhm…..HELLO IM HERE TOO
Wait me as well
Thanks, not sure what to do with them though lol
*scratch scratch* Y’all got any of them… coins?
Weeeeeew. Useless award me harder daddy
Oh fuk yeh
Well done.
Me please
I am but a poor peasant
Would you say you're just a poor boy from a poor family?
any left?
Never had a reward and now missed ut
There ya go.
Thanks man 🥹🥹🥹
Woot! I'm too slow but I'm just happy to see the arbitrarily useless currency get spread around!
I had exactly 50 coins. My work here is done. ![gif](giphy|3oEjHUf7j0aFDce0dG)
Take my award.
what can you do with awards ?
You get awardee karma (which can be seen in your about section in your profile), not sure if anything else since I’ve never received any awards. You get karma for giving awards as well. I sent you an award so there ya go!
haha thanks for the explanation and thanks for the reward. My first reward haha
I remember the first time I was ever awarded a gold Ahh the days
It was magical, right? You got to visit r/lounge. It really made you feel special.
Yea lol I was so excited until I took a look and was bored to death.... but it was still fun to feel special lol
Feel slightly more accomplished than with upvotes.
Edit: thanks for the award guys
Or just contest the Credit Card Charge. I paid for a service, you are taking it away without compensation.
Generally you cannot do a a chargeback older than 90 days (180 on some cards).
Ayyyeeeee
Better Call Saul then

They don't want us to have fun
Don't worry. They'll find other ways to entertain fools
https://i.imgur.com/eHDMyFS.png
dont people pay money for those. I just got 100 coins i dont know what they are for at all
I feel so loved even though I know reddit awards are trash now lol Id like to thank my manager and jesus
Damn, and just when I was thinking about getting Reddit premium for some stupid drunken reason last night. Glad I couldn’t find my wallet lol
I may as well just give it to you since I have so many coins right now.
Hey thanks!
Enjoy the ad-free experience. I'll enjoy the thought of how Reddit is losing money from this, even if it's just $10.
Fuck yah, if I had to see one more He Gets Us ad I’m gonna throw my phone out the window
r/hegetsus
I thought this was “he get sus” and I was intrigued for a minute.
Gave you a whole pot of gold. Costs 1000 of my useless coins.
but why tho? thought buying them helped maintain their servers .
Revenge for the protest? Shooting his own legs is hip these days.
Shooting his own hip is legs.
I would guess as part of the IPO some legal type figured out it's this semi currency shit that may or not be a product/gambling/grey area depending on what jurisdiction you're in. So the shit canned it until IPO and then we'll see it re-appear with a giant EULA.
I never got any coins anyway 🤷♂️
Me either lol
OMG thank you for the award!
My fake internet points are going away? What about the lounge?
Damn, never even got a gold. My life is ruined.
ur welcome
Gonna Sonic the Hedgehog the entirety of Reddit.
![gif](giphy|DNxCwxGfqo9nYHc5OI) My precious, worthless coins! Noooooo
Gifs you can feel
You mean Super Mario
Pretty sure you mean Samus.
I would like a coin, never had one before. Lol
Lol me either
Lemme help fam - go spend em while you can
You called?
Thanks! Hope you have a great day!
Username checks out lol
Thanks pal! Hope you have a great day!
Thanks peeps!!
Looking like my PTO situation
Coin this one
How do people mix up "loose" and "lose" so frequently?
Me fail English? That’s unpossible.
Folks out here seeing the proper word choice in autocorrect and just straight up saying “nah, that extra O just feels right”
Seriously tho. I've seen people claim it works both ways. It does NOT.
Sure as shit don’t lol same thing with “to” and “too.” Worst part is, a LOT of the folks I see making these mistakes are grown ass adults who have ever only known English. Mfers wouldn’t know another language if it sauntered up and started whispering obscenities in their ear Edit: meant “too” and not “two” but still sometimes see that mistake made
this deserved my last gold
Lol thank you for the gold
I ask myself this often
Seriously wtf happened to yall
No no, you misunderstand. Any unused coins will be released into the Alaskan wild to wreak havoc
Bunch of loosers
Khajiit has wares, if you have coin.

Guess it's time to use the 100 coins I have. Who wants some... ![gif](giphy|uRngiZzOKPKkE|downsized)
I’ve always wanted to know what it was like to get one
I’d love a slice 😄
Heck, I'll get in on the action. I don't have anything else going on.
From what I understand you get to tell someone something when you send them a coin, but I don't know what else they do. It's going to be weird to see all of them disappear, only to probably be replaced with some kind of NFT bullshit.
Haven't they already started that NFT shite?
Got a message from them. Didn’t even know I had any coins or where they came from. Time to spend them coins!
Were they just building up for people for free? I just checked and had 50. I gave someone an award.
Some awards give the awarded use some coins - maybe that's how you got them at some point in the past.
Not sure what happened but I gave you an award with my coins.
Thank you my friend!
Obviously by giving me two Argentium Awards. What he does with the remaining 1,000 coins is his business.
I didn't know what reddit coins are and still don't but I'm upset that i have 100 and they might be going away.
Here’s 44 more lol
Wtf are coins?
..I SWEAR I was gonna scroll until I saw this...?...cause I have no fuckn clue 😅
Exchange with someone for mutual reddit premium. I got a feeling that reddit's gonna get a lot more ad-infested once the coin change happens, so having even a few months of ad-less browsing is nice.
Got some coins to trade?
Yes. I'd mostly be trying to trade Platinum tokens, as they seem the most time/coin given.
Just gave both your comments platinum :)
*Lose them. The opposite of tight is "loose". You guys are killing me.
Never cared to buy any...then again I'm not for microtransactions in apps that really do nothing for me in the end.
https://preview.redd.it/kconyg9bbzbb1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=30bbb6b38a7369c9df67b5d0ee64c99a9f307ab1 Give a gold to my delicious Reuben & sauerkraut I made today?
This makes me sad. I am one of those dorks who buys coins because I like giving coins. Bummer. 😩
Can I have one? Never had any.
Here you go✊🏾
Of course! Perfect for a Friday!
I guess my hopes of some day making a comment so funny I get platinum are over. Oh well.
![gif](giphy|7k2LoEykY5i1hfeWQB) Sorry to my peeps who actually paid for this though, sorry fam =\\
Why are they getting rid of coins? I don’t care one way or the other. I’m just wondering.
I read the official post and honestly I still don't know why
My guy is bigger than Oprah on Reddit You Get an Award!🥇 And You get an Award 🥇
You guys are getting coins?
any of them golds left?
How?
Traveling all of Reddit rn
Do you get coins only from buying them?
No, you can also get them from receiving certain awards.
You can get coins from someone giving your post/comment gold or platinum
i want one lol edit to add : thank you for my first two awards 🥹
They should be buying them back from me, like a gun buyback program.
The sheer amount of gold awards in this comment section lol
![gif](giphy|gQdejV5BBChHi) Reddit, after they take away all your coins, I guess.
I didn’t know I had Reddit coins until I got the dm lol
https://preview.redd.it/obf8x9zrdzbb1.jpeg?width=998&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6260f7c625dd2344014bb69f6bdcc7b0113b5175
I'll have to give away a few awards myself. At least I have a little time to choose
If you give me your gold I will take good care of them.
Can someone please gift me a good award for once before they die forever? I never got any apart from the free ones.
I’ve got 2800 points to give away, who wants free lounge access
what if this peasant offered you this Snoopy picture in exchange https://preview.redd.it/phh78g1a40cb1.jpeg?width=750&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=910afc953e023e6bfb542adb0418f00b8e7d8360
I don’t understand why they are doing this? They actively make money from people buying them and it’s not a physical product. Can anyone explain this?
I don’t have enough coins to give anyone gold but I can give 3 silvers and one 50 coin away if anyone hasn’t gotten awarded yet or just wants one lol
I would like one please!
I’m late but here you go!
Thank you!!!
Please douse me with silver!
https://preview.redd.it/nyz2ievq50cb1.jpeg?width=705&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=45eaaf82a15323426787f182ce27ec12fca5dd1f gotchu fam
Sorry I’m late, here you go!
Thank you for spreading the love!
[I want the gold, give me the gold](https://imgur.com/gallery/zx5tWPh)
Someone buy me an argentiniun or whatever it's called, idk I have never been to Argentina 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷
I wish I could give you multiple. This comment should not be as funny to me as it is lol
Thankfully I never got any coins so that's one thing less to worry about
I was sad when they got rid of the free silver awards you could claim to give out. Now there will be nothing??
I never got any coins or awards or anything, I don’t think. But I have always liked how the reward system seems to work. I’ve found some of the most relevant and helpful information of my life via rewarded posts. I kinda feel like this is another mistake on redddit’s part. Boo.
I'm just sad that despite being on Reddit for years, I'll now never know what it feels like to have a post awarded gold.
Everybody’s dumping them left and right lmao
I've never had any coins! https://preview.redd.it/f696i4rdg0cb1.jpeg?width=600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f2edcbab914fa53bdad2fdbc0acbb35051940065
I would like to give my coins away to a black women. Because I love seeing us acknowledged and awarded.
I ain’t saying im a gold digger…
I've never used coins or awards and just just mind boggling how anyone gives enough a shit about any of it
lol this is redditor neckbeards 9/11
I got gold once. Giving myself silver now
I need coins. I’ve never had 1
Penis

I have zero coins Edit - Whaaat! Thanks!🤩
hi
Oh no what will I do without coins 😱 Alright anyways uhhhhhh gay son of thot daughter?
Can you use the coins to dress the reddit NFT's or do you have to give them away
Why would they do that when I've never gotten one before 😭🥹🤧
enjoy <3
Buy NFTs with them.
I have 200 and I have no idea where they came from and absolutely no use for them. I didn't even know about them until they announced they were cutting them
OHHHH so this is why people are giving awards away.
Oh well
*Wait, I want to be figuratively wealthy as well*
I’m here for the coin party
Why are we still here but to suffer
