# Real World Example

* John has $10,000 in a bank earning $1 a day in interest.
* John can instead "Flashstake" $10,000 and redeem $365 today, instantly.
* John retains 100% control of his $10,000 and can unlock it in full after one year.
* John can withdraw his $10,000 early by paying back a decreasing percentage of his $365
* John has just sold the future time value of his money for upfront capital.
