RE: Calculating the Costs of Resources on EOS: The EOS Resource Planner is Live!

in #eos6 years ago

It's not really paying for resources, but rather temporarily staking EOS tokens in order to use them, isn't it? So it's like you need to deposit some money to pay for resources and get them back when resources no longer needed? Sounds pretty attractive to me if that's the case.

Exactly. The only caveat is that the price of eos can fluctuate while staked so the value may not be the same should you need to unstake and sell for whatever reason.

True, but still, even if price goes down then you get something back (or you may even get more back than you put in the first place if the price goes up). In the traditional world you pay fees for resources and these are in no way refundable :)
