What if a lot of people buy this to stake? You need a lot of a coin to stake. I stake about 15 coins on four computers dedicated to that. It's not very much money totally but it helps keep the house warmer and produces a little coin to trade for Bitcoin and stable alts. I don't know what Flare is as far as a staking coin, what percentage of return. A lot of staking coins have return rates of like 250% a year.
Im not sure about this but it seems like flare will not use a common staking mechanism that being used by the majority of POS platforms. Have you seen this?
https://flare.ghost.io/theflarenetwork/You can see how spark token can be used to get FXRP. It was using the spark token as collateral. I don't even feel bad about this but i doubt this can attract a lot of people to buy spark token.
