Make it so you either have PoS for a certain amount of coin 100 to 1000 coins to protect the blockchain or you have so much coin that you can send a fee in that would burn it into boosting PoS.
Maybe like a PoS burn in coin for those who don't want to leave their computers on but use the service of Opal Drive. This would make more PoS available than normal since the Fees accrue due to usage. Then it blossoms with usage and people get a very large PoS reward if staking/using opal drive.
I hope this gets incorporated in the final Opal Drive. It kind of mimics drive mining. Since you either PaY or PoS. This would benefit everyone using Opal by burning the fees into a new PoS coin to be mined later perpetually.
I really like that idea. Being able to burn coins somehow to give a better reward to whoever produces the next block.
If you coordinated the event, you could buy a crap load of coins, then for the next 500 blocks increase the reward by 50 coins per block and let everyone know about it.
Or, you could have a lottery, saying that you promise to burn 2500 OPAL sometime between now and next Tuesday, which gets people installing wallets and staking coins trying to earn the stake reward if they get that block
Or, [insert your idea]
Interesting things here,
I try something, following your ways: (replace "lottery block" by another idea you may have)
a descending PoS interest rate:
-1,000,000 opals and more = 0% PoS (all the 5% rewards goes to the possible "lottery block", even this wallet can win )
- 999,999 opals = 0.000005% PoS interest (the 4.99995% goes to the next possible "lottery block", even... )
- 999,998 opals = 0.000010% PoS interest and 4.999900 % -> "lottery block", even...)
....
....
-2 opals = 4.999985% PoS interest, (0.000015% -> to the next possible "lottery block" even...)
- 1 opal= 4.999990% PoS interest, (0.000010% -> to the next possible "lottery block", even this wallet can win)
- 0 opal= 0 PoS (but even this wallet can win)
