Risk of Safecoin making the SAFE network fragile

[janitor]

@Traktion

The point is, the network is designed to increase the cost of storage to prevent the network reaching 100% capacity. The closer we get to 100% capacity, the more expensive storage will get… prohibitively so.

But in one discussion - I can’t find it because so many topics have the same set of keywords - someone said that some parameter would have to adjust faster than it is now designed, because the network could run out capacity before the cost of PUT goes up.

Edit: found it. Read the whole thing or start from this link:

Early demand, and effect on storage costs, after launch

@Seneca can you create a simulation model to show how this works? I ran some numbers and it didn’t turn out the way I expected. Initialized Starting Point IF S = 0.3 I = 1,288,490,189 THEN TA = 1,288,490,189 * (0.3 - 0.1) = 257,698,038 Am I correct in saying, the Network is trying to absorb 20% of the total SC in circulation from the start? Therefore, it will keep increasing PUT costs until it absorbs 257 million SC. As we approach the SC cap of 2^32, the percentage increases to 90%, …
