But the extra floating money will just work its way up: A level 50 will attack the level 20 with all the level 1's cash, the level 90 will attack that level 50, and in the end someone like JD will attack the level 90 and end up hoarding all the cash. The top few will battle it out for all the money.
So I don't see how this will work.

Yeh, i know what you mean. But with something like this tax, the money would keep coming out of the higher players banks and back into the hands of the lowers.. So it would be a flow, not quite hoarding it. And thats also why I suggested taxing more wealthy players more than less wealthy players. So that it would be harder to hoard the money that way.
And yeh Prodigy, I don't know how to implement something like this either. Not sure if it's even possible, just thought I would mention what was rolling around in my head haha. I really have no knowledge of programming and the other stuff Cyber does...
Your skill at talking is most impressive, but must you so blatantly flaunt it?

I don't mind people being able to save a [relatively] small amount of money (perhaps 50mil), without fear of losing it. The issue is when people are saving up 100's of millions of Credits, with no fear of vulnerability.
I'll continue to think about this problem. I think that a lot of it is down to the way money is stolen. If it weren't a percentage of the total unbanked wealth, it might be less terrifying to leave it unbanked.
Idk, the bank should definitely not be impenetrable like it is now though.

Bumping back to life; I'll read this entire thread again this week
I don't want to do anything to drastic for the time being, but there will be one or two periodic events that will skim a tiny amount of Credits from all accounts, to fund a super lottery, or fuel attacking on a special Thursday Thieves-style event. I might even call it Thursday Thieves as a nod to the old scam, but only if it ends up as a Thursday-only event
