How about a new coin...call it Poker Chip Coin

You can mine the coin like normal, but you can also wager the chip back into the pot.   Wagered chips give you less difficult future rounds (and higher odds of solving future blocks).  But it would have to be a some mathematical odds for your wager.  Almost like a lottery but with higher odds or greater possible returns.  Is this doable?

Almost anything is doable, but I don't know who can do it  Grin

Or another possible scenario:

Your wagered coins go into a large seperate pool.  Then the system randomly awards the pot to a miner who wagered coins.  The more "loto tickets" you buy, the better your odds for winning.
