Is this true? Is this how the POS interest works? This is really bad news for regular investors who are not stalking...
I thought the interest is 5%, and if only 1/3 of the coins are used for stalking, than the total inflation would be only 1.66%
That would mean lower inflation. It's really unfair for those who are not stalking if the system works as you describe it. If some people get 10% to 20% interest while others get zero, the difference is very big. 5% vs zero would be more fair.
It's meant to be an
incentive to support the network, it's not meant to be fair. Some coins have 25% or even 100% per year. 5% isn't a lot actually. If you feel like you are missing out, just set up a Raspberry Pi for staking, or let the wallet automatically start on operating system start on your PC.
