I’m almost certain “lost coins” will happen, especially with those not familiar with crypto currency.
Many will explore the SAFE Network’s internet 2.0 protocol… to view uhh… cat videos.
But over time, Safecoin will eventually become common knowledge.
An alternative solution could be a ZERO Vault. This is a node (vault) with ZERO storage. Since it does not store chunks, it cannot earn Safecoin from GET requests. But it does all the other vault functions.
The ZERO Vault contributes bandwith in exchange for FREE GETS. This reduces the Networks bandwith burden.
Users curious about SAFE run the Client with ZERO Vault on their “temporary” account. This allows them to explore and test the Network before committing storage.
Ideally, new users start with ZERO Vault and then upgrade to a STORAGE Vault by allocating storage. Hopefully, they realize this earns them Safecoin and not lose the account.
