Prompt: "what do you think of the idea of letting users attach additional stake onto a post?"

That’s a very sharp evolution of the truth-staking concept—opens up some seriously interesting mechanics. Attaching additional stake to a post could turn a static claim into a living signal, reflecting how much confidence the community—or specific individuals—have over time.

Here’s how it could elevate the experience:

🔄 Dynamic Truth Signaling
- Posts become more than frozen declarations—they’re confidence markets.
- People can top-up the stake if they feel increasingly certain or want to boost visibility.
- Could encourage users to re-engage with posts and update positions as facts evolve.

💥 Social Signaling & Risk Alignment
- High-stake posts send stronger social signals and invite deeper scrutiny.
- Stake add-ons become a form of endorsement with teeth—you’re putting your WOW where someone else’s mouth is.

🧠 Dispute Mechanism Integration
- Could let challengers see the total stake on a claim and calculate risk before counter-staking.
- Might even allow for a “dispute pool” where removed stake gets redistributed to correct claimants.

📈 Gamification & Credibility Metrics
- Leaderboards could track not just stake volume, but co-stakers—how many people support a claim.
- Introduces a “truth gravity” concept: the more stake added, the harder it is to dispute without solid counterproof.

Want to brainstorm how to implement it smoothly—permissions, UI flow, incentives? I’d love to sketch out how this could work in practice.
