- sadris 8y agoRequire a deposit to sign up. If you quit you get it back. If you get banned you lose it.
- CoryG89 8y agoThis is an interesting idea. Doubles as a strategy for monetizing.
- thekyle 8y agoI suppose you could take the deposits and earn interest on them as a possible supplemental revenue stream.
- ssalka 8y agoNot trying to go there but this very clearly sounds like a staking system
- awad 8y agoFrom an accounting perspective in this hypothetical scenario I believe that you would not be legally allowed to dip into the deposit money save for that recovered through bans. Which creates very perverse incentives.
- aasasd 8y agoPretty sure this is already a part of Paypal's business model, with their random account freezes.
