$DEGEN

reply guys

Very possible that by the end of the day today you need to stake 1,000,000 $degen to be eligible for a 10k allowance

for simplicity's sake, set degen to 1 usd.

how much [money] would you lock away for 90 days to be able to freely invest (or steal) 900000/ USD during that period?

1 million?
2 million?
10 million?
100 million?

fwiw I think the upper limit is around 10:1, ie I would be willing to lock 10m USD maximum for 90 days to freely invest 900k over a 90 day period (ceteris paribus).

what about you?

Degen staking-for-allowance can’t quite be though of like staking for yield 

Network-yield is how I’ve been thinking about it. 

stake degen if you’re bullish DEGEN (you probably hold some already, no?)

OR 

stake degen if you’re bullish on your own capacity to distribute a tip allocation in a manner that will have positive effects for Farcaster, and by proxy, DEGEN

that sounds liked the preferred ideal, less what people will actually do.

i'm treating it like yield that I donate (and will tell my CPA that lol)

Definitely, I’m trying to articulate a new way of thinking about degen & staking, slowly spread a meme that could one day be adopted as an ethos by a network of token holders & buyers

can we call it locking rather than staking? at least in its current form
