Yes, the next immediate goal will be to enable the staking feature.

We'll see how this goes, but should it turn into a stretch, then the funds will be used to power up the kittens and strengthen the utility of the token in that way.

I think I can also create a pseudo-staking feature on @catnet's end, that would come without any fees at all for the cost of a more limited user-experience than going through the widely accepted steem-engine interface.
