Title: NBT parking vs. Dash masternode running Post by: Skywalker Services, LLC on June 15, 2016, 05:15:09 PM Assuming Nu recovers the USD peg, trying to figure out which would be more wise to do - parking NBT's or running a Dash masternode.
Seems from below that a Dash MN would bring twice as much, or more, but am I overlooking something? Dash masternode at current numbers: Dash MN bond costs ~8k USD Gets about 10 dash / month Current rate is about 8 USD / dash I have to run it on a vps, which costs i think about 150 / year. So, Dash MN would bring about: (10*8*12)-150 = ~800 USD / year Nu parking numbers: Say the parking amount would be 8k USD, just as for Dash MN I'm not sure how to estimate how much the parking APR would be after the current crisis, but say 4% So, NBT parking would bring: 8000*.04 = 320 USD / year Parking at the rate I parked a week ago and current 3-months - ~30% - of course changes to: So, after that, say Seems like NBT is higher risk for about the same reward, but less work than running an MN, but not sure. What do y'all think?

https://dash-news.de/dashtv/#value=1000 note : by changing the 1000 to for example 2000 you can calculate the annual revenue of two masternodes https://i.imgur.com/cDXCPOk.jpg You will still have server renting costs per month, which will be some $5 per month per masternode and you are required to update the server whenever Dash updates its client version. Also be informed that the masternode payments / miner payments will get lower over time (Dash has a scheduled yearly 7% cut in blockrewards which will make the payments / rewards for both miners and masternodes lower over time) Last but not least, with Dash you will keep full control over your funds which can be safely stored away on cold wallets. Unfortunetely i dont know anything about NBT to give you a sound advice between these two ..

Unfortunetely i dont know anything about NBT to give you a sound advice between these two .. Thanks! That seems to validate my MN calculation - about 10% APR or less. I just thought of something: If I buy more NBT now, for 1/3 the peg target, IF Nu regains the peg, I would actually 3x my money, and get 10% APR or so. So, that would be 330%? :-\ So, actually for 8k USD now, I could park 24k NBT. At peg, IF it returns: 24k * .3 / 4= 1800 24k * .04 * 3/4 = 720 24000 + 1800 + 720 = ~26500 26500 / 8000 = 330 % right? Highest possible risk though, compared to Dash. |
