Not in my view. The idea has A LOT of potential. @nwienert, when I saw that I had to connect a wallet, I actually thought that posting a comment would cost some very low ETH/MATIC/whatever price.
It would actually be great to prevent stupid, knee jerk, spam and other comments.
There's also the possibility of "accumulating" part of the charged comment amounts and spread it between a) The original poster and b) maybe the top N commenters (after a week maybe?).
I don't know if you know, but, back in my day ,there was something called Hashcash which was envisioned to minimize or prevent Email Spam. Hashcash the precursor to one aspect of cryptocurrencies (the infamous PoW mining).

Man, this has so much potential.
