My guess is that it will alleviate some pressure on the servers as likely there are lots of people signing up (and perhaps even spammers and scrapers). This follows the model of Snapzu (another reddit-like service, albeit not as close of a clone as Voat). The admins at Snapzu said that they would not have stayed up if not for the invite only model after the darkening drove lots of users there.
