I went back and looked at FIP-101 carefully and found that basically it means this: reward the people who run the indexing, and holders of $FB can also stake to nodes so that they can share in the rewards.
On the Bitcoin on-chain, even though there are transaction records, the balances in wallets, the addresses holding the coins, and the data in trading markets don’t just generate themselves—they all need indexers to compile them one by one.
In the past, each party mostly maintained its own indexer setup: it costs money, and it could also lead to the same piece of data being computed into different results.
FIP-101 turns this into a standalone service. People run nodes to organize the data, submit proofs, and stakers of $FB provide support to the nodes—then everyone splits the rewards together.
I think this approach is workable. At the very least, $FB gets another use case: it’s not only for transfers and price speculation.
That said, right now it’s still just UniSat testing with a single indexing node, and staking is limited. Multi-node operation hasn’t officially kicked off yet, so calling it “decentralized indexing mining” feels a bit early.
We’ll see whether third parties are willing to run nodes: whether the data computed by multiple nodes can match, and whether wallets and trading platforms actually need it.
If in the end it’s UniSat running everything itself, then it’s basically wrapping its own indexing service with a staking-and-rewards mechanism.
If multiple nodes really can run and people can verify data with each other and continue splitting fees, then this could get pretty interesting.
