The Reddit Collectible Avatars community is worried for the future of the NFT project after the sudden departure of Bianca Wyler, Reddit’s Collectible Avatar community lead.

What’s The Scoop

  • Unannounced Departure: Bianca Wyler confirmed she was no longer with Reddit via a LinkedIn post on Monday.
  • Uncertain Future: Reddit’s NFT project has struggled to gain the same sort of traction since its initial launch in 2022.
  • Tough Timing: She was interacting with the community just hours before her announcement on LinkedIn.

Bankless Take:

Reddit has had a challenging history with its early crypto efforts, though the company has yet to deliver any concrete news on the fate of Reddit Collectible Avatars, many large companies have sought to walk away from bull market NFT efforts over the past year. The most high-profile recent example being Nike shutting down their acquired RTFKT project.
