does more "stake" give more "votes" as per the "one cpu one vote" principal?
if your answer is yes, that's a "double spend" of "packaged energy" think about it.
well when i say its a "double spend" it had to come from somewhere, so let me think on this, its transfered from the decentralized network. oh, of course its an implosion.
wow.
The answer is Yes. But I do not follow your argument. A better response from me will have to await the availability of code to test.
the argument is simple :
where does the energy come from?
if Bob has 1000 Bitcoin and wants more how does Bob get them?
lets look:
- Bob buys them. (Bob expended energy in the form of paper money or good or services)
- Bob Trades them for profit. (Bob just transfered someone else's energy and made a profit, someone else lost this time)
- Bob Buys hardware and mines them (Bob expends either Bitcoin (energy tokens) or fiat (energy tokens) and buys hardware and mines them)
or
Proof of stake says Bob gets "interest" on owning something, this breaks the law of energy equilibrium and transfers energy to Bob.
this is not a problem, and it works now because ah, people don't know any better and are stupid, but however why it won't work in the future is because of the same reason Joe goes to work now and is seeing a declining reward for his work, and why people are turning off the TV.
The reason "interest" exists is for a premium on a risk for Debt (transfer> generally consensual)
or as a shell game to steal wealth (energy) from humans. (theft) .
only those reasons.
