[Reddit Announces Termination of Avatar Creator Program, Store to Close on November 11] Reddit has announced that it will terminate the Avatar Creator Program and will no longer accept new submissions from creators. However, all remaining submissions will be reviewed by the end of September, and the Avatar Store will remain operational until November 11. Users will still be able to use the collectible avatars they have purchased, but Reddit will remove the profile and platform NFT transfer display features for collectibles. Reddit emphasized that avatars themselves can still serve as a form of self-expression. All secondary sales royalties will go entirely to the creators. Reddit will update contracts within the next three weeks to ensure all secondary sales fees are paid directly to creators. Additionally, Reddit will remove the in-app "Vault" feature. Users can export their blockchain wallets by copying the 12-word mnemonic phrase from the "Vault Settings" before January 1, 2026.
