It becomes significantly more expensive for malicious actors to mount attacks to compromise the network, they would need to acquire a substantial amount of CRP, making the endeavor financially prohibitive.
A higher staking balance encourages a more distributed network of validators. When more individuals or entities stake larger amounts, the network becomes less susceptible to centralization, thus enhancing its robustness.
One of the most compelling reasons for miners to increase their staking balance is the potential for increased financial rewards.

which accounts for 12% of the total supply. This seems quite low, doesn't it?What do you think about increasing the Staking balance per thread from 64 CRP to 128 CRP and reducing the active bot time from 24 hours to 12 hours
Staking balance plays a critical role in many Proof-of-Stake (PoS) based cryptocurrencies, but its significance is particularly prominent in the Utopia ecosystem with the mining of Crypton (CRP) coin. Increasement of the staking will be helpful.
Yes, increasing the staking balance offers numerous benefits for both individual miners and the Utopia ecosystem as a whole.
