No offense but that's pretty much what r/bitcoin is...

r/bitcoin is full of bitcoin fanatics who will bury any cryptocurrency-related news that isn't bitcoin. Mention XRP, BTS, ETH, or really any next-gen blockchain tech that doesn't ride on bitcoin and you are called a heretic.

In all fairness, here are 2 points from their submission guidelines...

  * News articles that do not contain the word "Bitcoin" are
    usually off-topic. This subreddit is not about general
    financial news.
  * Submissions that are mostly about some other
    cryptocurrency belong elsewhere. For example,
    /r/CryptoCurrency is a good place to discuss all
    cryptocurrencies.
So it seems that if you submit something that isn't bitcoin-related, you should /expect/ that it will get downvoted, or moderated.
