How many RC are needed to acquire a free account? I would also agree it needs to be easy to claim thise accounts so small steemians like myself could claim them. Another resource to HODL for when needed.

It takes 7,922,585,402,047 RC to create.... I think that's around 4000 Steem Power... that's according to this utility: https://codebull.github.io/AccountCreate/
Unfortunately, a lot of RC's are needed to claim an account. Here you can see the RC costs for several operations: https://beempy.com/resource_costs
In practice this means if I have 7000 'active' SP in my account and claim one, currently that costs me about 60% Resource Credits. So about 4200 SP, but to be safe and not make your account unusable, 5000 SP is a safe amount to start claiming accounts.
But, due to several factors, the 'cost' of an account can change daily, the above is what I observed to be the 'cost' the past few weeks.
So definitely not for small accounts.

Indeed - there's a huge gap between the accounts that need RC (with 100-200 SP you can do a lot on the Steem Blockchain already) and that can give something valuable with their RC. That's why a RC delegation market would be awesome, because also smaller accounts could delegate some 'surplus' RC even though they might not have enough to claim accounts and such.
It would be nice to delegate RC that I do not need for day to day STEEM activities.

yap, don't really checking but i think my rc was never under 80% if even that. and i am to far away from being able to create an acc. now thinking, delegation of RC could also help new acc, as someone would be able to delegate it to them without giving up Sp
