KonkyBonky,

Eh, I doubt it. Unless Reddit closes registration sometime soon.

CookieJarObserver,

No they are at the bottom of all time, scammers have so many now...

Please ELI5 why someone would want to buy a Reddit account?

Ah established Reddit account with real comments and lots of karma is less likely to be identified as a bot or sockpuppet, which is useful for people who want to run those accounts

That makes sense, thanks for the answer!

DreamySweet,

Why would they?

SickIcarus,

I’d have to bet that no, they’ll lose value. Currently aged accounts are valuable to be used as spam/click bots, but once api access goes so do the click-farms (in theory)

Tea leafs in my cup say:
You might not be the only person to have this idea. And with increased supply the price rather tends to drop.

On the other hand, with more accounts on the market, the algorithm might get stricter about the age and karma, so if you have some very old, very reputable account, that might get better price than an average one.
