Should Farcaster add a "staking" verification system?  Please reply! 

Users can get "verified" badge by staking $10 USDC in a contract. The stake can be reclaimed at any time, but will only release after a delay (maybe 4-8 weeks). 

Verified users will get the following benefits: 

- Badge on profile. 
- Access to video uploads.
- Show up higher in conversations. 
- A small boost in the rewards program. 

The goal is to make it harder for spammers to verify so that good humans on Farcaster have a better experience!

Feels like 10 $ with the only cost being the delayed withdrawal will not have any significant effect, while increasing complexity and friction.
Cost could be increased by a slashing mechanism, but that would most likely require a higher stake.
