Where is the stake coming from to sustain the network? Not from energy nor work but from you the user

There are many models for generating staking assets. They could even be generated using proof of work or burning BTC. As the post points out BTC itself could be the staking asset. Anyways there's not really a "network" to "sustain" here as such, the staking asset is just being used as a Sybil prevention and penalty enforcement mechanism for the bridge protocol.

If they use proof of work then it would be called POW, birning what? Why would you burn precious BTCs? Wrapping Bitcoin on a proof of stake protocol is a big attack to Bitcoin and will prob fail.

Using proof of work for issuance of the staking asset is a separate process from staking itself.

As a provably-fair way of issuing the staking asset.

Based on your comments so far it seems that you don't really understand what you're talking about, so maybe save your opinions and confident predictions of failure for a topic you're better educated on.

Go ahead do whatever you want with Bitcoin, I don't care, I only hope you succeed!

Ok, but what would make staking legit in your eyes? Are there any models that could change your mind?
reply
None imho, anything that doesn't require real world energy or work will steal your bitcoin in a long enough time range
