Some Ideas for Unofficial Ranks for Proof of Brain
Hey Brainiacs!
Those who've been following me for a while may have seen me post up some "Unofficial Ranks" for staking various Hive-Engine tokens such as LEO, VIBES, CTP and SPORTS and it occurred to me that we don't have any ranks for Proof of Brain yet! The idea behind this series was inspired by the Hivebuzz system based on how much Hive Power you have but it is mainly for a bit of fun and also encourages long term goal setting and growing your account by giving some cool ranks!
Normally, I start off just by throwing some ideas out there in ascending order so the more stake you have, the higher the "title" of the rank, then I run some calculations based on how Hive Power is calculated and extrapolate that to each Hive-Engine token. So here are my ideas that I can come up with that are related to brain power or some scholarly system:
| Rank | Staked POB Tokens Needed |
|---|---|
| Pre-School/Kindergarten | 8 |
| Primary School | 80 |
| Secondary School | 400 |
| College | 1,600 |
| Undergraduate | 4,000 |
| Postgraduate | 8,000 |
| Lecturer | 20,000 |
| Senior Lecturer | 40,000 |
| Professor | 80,000 |
There is a circulating supply of 606,108 at time of writing and, in the end, I decided to do the ranks through school up to the master of professorship at University but that's just my take on it all and what I felt like when thinking of the Proof of Brain community! That, and I saw that @calumam has got a proper marking sheet when he decides on his word of the week contests which reminded me a lot of what I'm going to be signing myself up for again when I start a new University course in January next year!
The calculations lead to 80,000 POB staked for the highest possible rank at the moment so I filled down the rest with different levels that aren't too far apart and hopefully give some inspiration to move on up! I had a quick look at the richlist presented by @interpretation last week and no-one is at the Professor level yet and only 1 account, which is the main @proofofbrain account is at Senior Lecturer level!
Feel free to give your feedback in the comments below - do we need more ranks? Perhaps a different naming convention altogether for the ranks? Let me know! Get that brain working haha!
