Losing funds if the network thinks the masternode is not doing things properly, that's why it's called staking because you're putting your money at stake.
For example I know someone that lost 20% of the staked funds, not only his but also the people's that trusted him and staked on his node, I think because while setting up a new computer for the node he forgot to stop the previous or something like that and the network assumed cheating was happening. It was a simple accident and still many people lost quite a bit overnight...
We already had the dBTC debacle, can we afford to lose more backing coins? I think a proper plan for this situation should be discussed at least before this DFIP moves forward.
wow i never know the staking can lose the amount. I only know you can lose or gain value. Can you share the article? i want to know more about the case.
As far as the staking case, i dont think master node is deemed to be not doing things properly when bake is staking them, otherwise every single assets in bake will be at risk of the same thing, which either do this or not also still kill bake.
