The purpose of POS is to secure the network. POS reward is paid to secure the network by minting. High % return of POS is just a self-diluting game that puts a downward pressure on the coin's price, hence doesn't offer real return as "interest".

What about this? Is this paragraph also correct in your opinion?

The purpose of POW is to secure the network. POW reward is paid to secure the network by minting. High block reward of POW is just a self-diluting game that puts a downward pressure on the coin's price, hence doesn't offer real return.



yes, this is correct
the problem with bitcoin is 5% inflation right now is a little bit high

it doesn't offer any advantage over 2% inflation security-wise other than giving ASIC miners a higher stake in the game

Some of the really fantastic PoS coins have very high pricetags at this point, making them risky. Zeitcoin and ECCoin both pay 25% and can be stacked for only a few satoshis each. Both are PoW/PoS hybrids and both now have or will soon have very low PoW distribution(Zeitcoin is 1/block currently).

Nas is the 100% Proof-of-Stake (PoS) currency.  
What is NAS? It's a descendant of NXT and first working fork of NXT's source code.
Official Thread: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/nas-descendant-of-nxt-100-posmore-exchangeswinnas-is-ready-523187
Official Website: http://nascoin.org/

Also it's 5 times cheaper that Nxt prices right after launch, before Dgex.

probably a totally dumb question but if I don't ask I'll never know (and probably 100 other newbies that are too afraid to look dumb)

What happens when POS coins are held on an exchange?

The exchange takes the PoS generally. Usually if you believe in a coin you should have it in your wallet anyway. If the coins arent in your wallet you don't really own them, they are like IOU's

Thanks, slowly, slowly I am learning Smiley

Without CAT this thread is basically useless to the world



So are you seriously thinking cats would work as a currency?


I can only see Catcoins and dogecoins working as a currency, mainly for animal rescue agencies and making it easier to donate to them!
