For someone with your political stance it strikes me as odd that you would be in favor of and n^2 curve which only encourages an oligarchy to entrench itself. Why would you want to go back to the old days? Back then if you invested 10k USD your vote was worth a whopping 0.001...pathetic.

Putting a cap on the stake doesn't help, it just creates a point of equilibrium where whales start to power down and does not encourage further investment.
