      Reddit gold was a paid subscription service that gave users some additional or enhanced features. It was possible to buy another user reddit gold as a gesture of appreciation for some kind of comment they made and a little icon would appear on the post if that happened. Really nothing about what i remember of reddit gold seems remotely similar to this “certified bangers” thing. Maybe you can explain what your understanding of what reddit gold is.

        The joke is that Reddit is the only one “buying” Reddit gold. They use it to herd the hivemind.
