What Staking Reward level would interest you?

I saw there:

We know that other projects do this also either by upfront payment or by such high hardware requirements that you have literally to invest to be able to run a node.

But we also know that this is exactly what keeps potential node operators away resp. the lack of such upfront investment was the reason node operators joined Storj in the first place:

@BrightSilence

other ways to solve that that don’t require risking your own investment upfront. This is the reason I never started with Sia and I probably wouldn’t be here if Stork had this requirement when I started. I’d probably be willing to do it now, because I already know how to run a stable node and I already have income from existing nodes. But for a new node operator who maybe messes up their first node because they lack the experience, having an upfront deposit is a big risk.
