Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

They have complete control. They can just ban the account who owns the coins, or block them from using it because they are the some platform that it's used on. Even if a user gets banned and gives their coins to someone else, it's trivial to track the blockchain transaction to see which account it goes into and ban that one.
They have just as much control as the old coins, except now it burns 1000x the amount of trees and is crypto scam shit.
You can transfer it to a wallet that is not linked to reddit.
And Ethereum is not like Bitcoin anymore, so the environmental concerns are reduced.
That doesn't matter. Transactions are easily visible and can just be followed to a new account.
Yes, but they can't be linked to a reddit account, which was your whole point.
...yes they can
No, they can't. How would an EOA created in any standard wallet be linked to a Reddit vault?
Much of this thread seems to be a case of blind leading the blind for the sake of hate.
The crypto community has more than its share of scams, memes, hype-driven projects, and speculations which give it a bad and unprofessional perception, but that's just the surface.
Ethereum/cryptocurrency has the power for great change and is actually a pretty complex topic under the hood, the details of which most people will never need to understand, just like the Internet.
Time will tell I guess!
It's trivial to see if they give you dumb reddit coins, that the wallet it's going into is yours. If they ban you and see that wallet to connect to your account, clearly it's the same person.
That's not what was said. You said even if the coins are transferred to another wallet, it could be tracked to a new reddit account. It can't.
User 1 has Wallet A. User 1 gets banned. Wallet A funds all gets transfered to Wallet B. User 2 now has all the funds and can be assumed to be User 1.
