Reddit's "NFT-Like" Avatar Project

Going the way of some notable NFT series, Reddit will introduce collectible avatars featuring its platform mascot, Snoo. Users will buy custom images to play a functional role in their use of Reddit and grant some unique personality to their experience. 

Is any picture an NFT these days? Purchases will be logged on the blockchain, with a portion of the price going to the originating creator. Prices are not announced, but early examples place one of the customer profile pictures between $10 and $75, which can be paid in regular old currency (no crypto required). 

NFT interest on Reddit increased by 400% over the last year, which means money, which means Redditors should expect more features like this with time.
