Hello friends,

I am curious if you are running any masternodes? If you are, which coins are they for?

Thank you for participating!

Only a few MNs )
Very interesting experience  ;D

seriously profitable? VIVO went from 13 to 0.88, INN from $16 to $1, SPK from 13 down death to 0.05, the list continues...You have to make hundred % just to make even. What's staking/MN for?

Been intrested in this aswell. The problem with MasterNode coins is the volatility of the price on the altcoin. Its not stable growth by 2% year exactly  ;D What im afraid of and why i havnt invested in a masternode is that the risk of loosing money on a drop in altcoin price is too high.

Then just wait for the price to drop and grab yourself a nice and cheap MN. Since the initial drop and after people start buying the coins and the price goes a bit up, it should be stable. At least those are my observations so far, make your own researches.
Otherwise - I am running a PROTON MN and also thinking of getting myself a QBIC MN also.

Same here, just setup a Proton MN over the weekend, now I will wait a few days to see how it runs and then I am thinking about QBIC also and few others. But trading for Proton on Graviex....blah, just pure torture :)
But I guess the problem is low trade volume, not the Graviex itself.

Btw a question for those who have more MN. How do you setup multiple MN for the same coin? Server part is easy, you can just buy multiple VPS. But for the cold wallet part I don't know, because its on the computer. Do you have to use the hot wallet or can it be done with cold wallet on a single computer? I could use multiple user accounts but thats quite unfriendly.

Another question for those with experience. Can you sell the coins used as colateral after the masternode is confirmed? Or do you have to keep them in the wallet?

I have Crown systemnode, Chaincoin and Monoeci masternode.
Could be good time to buy masternodes now.
I really like Monoeci. Very nice project with serious and active developers.

Monoeci is a bargain at current price.
I would say the same about Crown and Chaincoin too, but Monoeci is my favourite.

The coins for collateral must stay in the wallet in order to get rewards from the masternode.
But you can run a remote node so you don't need the wallet with collateral to be online to run the masternode.

Thanks for the info and clarification @ronnylov. Will check the coins you mentioned. I also think its good time to buy some MN. So to give info back, the profitable I found that also have a setup guide:

- Galactrum
- NYXCoin
- Polis
- Pirl (very expensive)
- ApollonCoin
- MagnetWork
- SagaCoin
- ZacaCoin

Did not check the background yet. May be all shitcoins. But they are all quite profitable atm and have a guide to setup the MN. Guide is important IMO because without it you can fail at setting the MN.

I 've been running a smartcash masternode since 3 days.
I'd like to run another one but i'm not able to find another good project.
May be Innova....

All in all I run about 20 masternodes for ~15 various altcoins.Bought/mined them all at the very start when returns were max (and ROI min.), months later they still give about 75-200% per annum.

I bought VIVO for running masternode at price ~0.0006 BTC, and at current price which already down 6x, it seems like I could not get the ROI.
Masternodes coins are too volatile and as I see a lot of masternodes coins look the same.

I agree. A lot of MN looks the same. We'll end up with a lot of coins with ZERO value.

VIVO has alreay paid back like x2.5 since they started masternodes and most of it was when the price was high. Can't complain.

How do you run multiple MN for the same coin?

It depends. Most coins require separate VPS for each masternode but some (PURE, for example) allow you to set it up on a single server using different ports.

Just have them set up in different addresses/VPS.  I ran 4 XIOS MN before the coin forked.  I think I hit the diamond in the rough at the right time and got it when the coin was in the 40 cent range and sold 80% of everything when it peaked around $4.  I'm hoping when the fork is complete and the XUEZ coin is launched that the Mastnode program keeps trending upward.  I had a great experience and got extremely lucky on timing but with the right coin and getting in at the right time staking and running a masternode can be profitable.  Unfortunately, most of the timing was getting in before the run-up of every coin.  Need to pick and choose now, be patient and only get involved in a project you plan to hold and believe in.

Can you give us some information about which coins are they?

There are several that I'm interested too, I'm currently thinking of getting into with Bubbletone UMT token which right now is having an ICO that will end this April. They only require minimum of 1000 UMT to operate but then I could have to consider the earnings before jumping into it.

VIVO, INN, SMART, ZEN, BWK, FOLM, ALQO, MUN, DESIRE, PURE, FOLM, IFX and few others. So far only MUN has really let me down.

alqo MN looking really good at the current price.

Commie, would you please tell me a good VPS service, which is also not very expensive? I am thinking atm to invest in 2 MNs and I need to do my research beforehand :D Would appreciate your advise, since you are experienced!

I'm planing to to bet on 2 dirty cheap (meaning less than 350$ to set up) masternodes that work on VPS. Shill me :)

Same here! One of the projects is reaally shady, and the other one just came up. Both are NeoScrypt POW + MNs and if I should invest in them, both Mns would cost me 460$ :D I am thinking of taking my chances though. just want to know which service to use :D

Most of my nodes are on Amazon since I have tons of credits there... What are you looking for, Windows or *nix? Maybe I'll be able to give couple of options.

We have a few masternodes, but they were all acquired by mining coins when the difficulty was low (aka when they weren't on the public radar). Some of the options out there have very nice returns, but typically you need to get in as early as possible to get your money back very quickly if you are buying them outright.

True that, I was digging most of coins for my MN's by both rigs and Nicehash from the very start of blockchains...

I'm running Beetlecoin MN, which is just doing right.

Feels kinda dangerous getting into some more expensive masternode right now. The bear market situation isn't doing any good.

Gotta admit though that PHORE does seem like a cool thing.

Yeah, the project seems to be something really great! If you are into their discord, you will get a better view of whats up! Never have I seen so many dev members and not only! The project has a really good future, imo!

Hello, I was trying to configure my Endorphine masternode now when I open my wallet I can not get it and I get this message: error reading marternode configuration file: Masternode.conf could not be interperted
Line: 1
"Alias: MN1"

The mistake I'm sure has something to do with this step but I do not know how to solve it now:

allias: any name

address: VPS_IP: 11775

privkey: mnprivatekey

txhash: txid

output index: vout (0 or 1)

Click update

Click start

What can I do now to solve it?

No shilling? I thought bitcoin community was about helping each other  ??? ???

:)

I'm running two DGF masternodes. There was no cheaper masternode to be set-up then.  ;)

yes, I have a couple of masternodes, though they are not very profitable right now
I have QBIC, TIN coin, DIXI and PHILS masternodes
they are all young coins, I hope if ever BTC will be expensive again, I could be able to sell them with good profits

Waiting for the syscoin masternodes...  :)

Im not running any masternodes yet, but i have picked two which i shall be running in the future.

1.) DIVX/DIVI - Mainnet launch in May, nice price at current

2.) TOMO - Blockchain infrastructure project, potential retirement pot right here!

most masternodes are a scam so be careful when thinking about getting one. I currently have a galactrum and infinex one and believe both projects will shine over the next 12 months

Of course, with so cheap masternode collateral it's essential finding cheap VPS. I found masternode good enough for 1EUR/month.  :D

Did you find a masternode that earns you 1EUR monthly or did you find a VPS that costs 1EUR/month? :D and if its not a secret, could you please share the info :D There are also other people who would like to get access to it :D

Yes. I have 9 DINERO Masternodes and getting another one this week. DIN has a great community and a great Dev team.

Have around 15 MNs.

Xuma and Dinero are very promissing.

I agree. The only legit ones that can earn more than. Vps monthly cost is. Dash , pivx, zcoin, Zen. These are reputable and proven out with active development team and price performance.

Yes the newer ones are cheaper and can have the potential to grow but most of them over promise and under deliver and cost more to host vps than what they can earn you. Make sure you do deep dive research on these cheaper ones

I have many. While the masternod site says 2200% or whatever, say 1-2% a day, the coin, even before the bear market, goes down 5% or more per day. It's very similary to mining reall, stuff shows up 1/week or so when you check. If you are very lucky and skilled, you will barely recover your ROI.

You only need one good masternode.  Look at Dash,  Brings in 7 Dash coin per month. thats over 2k.

For masternodes is quality not quantity.

just get 1 good one that you can afford,
 Does you no good to get 100 chain coin masternodes for $120 each :)

I read the "do your own research", "do deep dive research" all the time without almost no actual advice about how to do so.

I would relay appreciate an advice about how do you research a coin ( especially a new one). What do you look in a master node coin, or do you start by looking for negative attributes ( and if so what are they)? 

I am running a Denarius (DNR) Masternode right now.  Great low cap coin.  They just went live a couple weeks ago and so far I am happy.

Next Masternode will be Castle Airdrop Platform (CSTL). Holding coins gets you airdropped coins from projects that use their service.

I *hope* Platinum Bar (XPTX) gets masternodes.  Another low cap gem but the dev is keeping his cards close.

This was always a huge scam. Well too many scammers here spreading the word hehe

Keep an eye out for your favorite masternode. Prices are dropping so good chance to get your favorite Masternode coin
 This can be a great hedge from mining or supplement your mining.

Anybody else got good advice for a masternode coin that's not a shitcoin?

Your earnings depends on initial investment, of course. Digifel is one of many similar coins, but survived it's dumping period and is now cruising with value/interest rates of 50-150 satoshi and 1200-1800%. 1EUR/month per VPS/masternode You can buy at https://www.arubacloud.com/ (https://www.arubacloud.com/). Beware that You have to pay for each "VPS creation". So, if You delete VPS and create new You have to pay again.

Chup, thank you very much for the information! I am going to set some MNs really soon and I wanted to know which provider would be the best, because AWS seems like a very expensive option for the moment :D I do not plan on deleting my VPSses, because the MNs I will invest in, are going to be really long term.

You can stop, power-off, power-on, start, deinstall wallets, install different wallets, etc. Just don't delete virtual machine and create new one and You're good to go with 1EUR/month.  ;)

ALQO for the win IMHO! www.alqo.org (http://www.alqo.org) and the link to the ANN https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2343884.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2343884.0) This is a real gem in hiding and at the current market extremely cheap to get in.

$20,000 for Alqo masternode collateral is far from cheap to enter risky mn world.
For example, making Digifel masternode one shold set and forget less than $10  ::)

I know, I know,... to win big one should risk big. But not me...

Collateral for an ALQO mn is far from 20K $. ATM it is at $2,498.83 / 0.37030 BTC https://masternodes.online/currencies/XLQ/ (https://masternodes.online/currencies/XLQ/). If you substract the 0 you are fine  ;)
Of course it is not a 20 or 200$ MN, but you get what you pay for, right. My advise is to really look at the stuff you invest in, especially for mns, since they should be long term investments.

Yes for BiblePay!

BiblePay (BBP)
- 10% mined coins always go to Charity (already sponsoring 200+ Orphans monthly)  
- ASIC-Resistant like Vertcoin/Groestlcoin (CPU Mining Only)  
- fork of DASH (Masternode Governance, Proposals & Voting), 10% Monthly Budget for IT/PR/P2P Live  
- Proof of BibleHash (POBh) algorithm, All Nodes are Full Nodes  
- Ranked #145 in Code Commits

Launched July 23rd 2017, Market Cap $1-2 million, $0.0026 per BBP
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2388064.0

38% of BiblePay coins are rewarded to Healing and Curing with Distributed Computing  [Contributing CPU Cycles to Science Research]
- Rosetta@home (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosetta@home) (Cancer, AIDS/HIV, Malaria, Alzheimer’s)
- World Community Grid (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Community_Grid#Active_projects) (Cancer, AIDS, Zika, Tuberculosis, Clean Energy, Ebola)

I was also thinking about masternodes, but i concluded that they are risky. So i just invest in coins...

The cool thing about masternodes is that even if you don't mine a full masternode you can still take what you mined and find a share to join up with and then get passive coin income that way.  Even if it's a percentage of a full masternode it's still better than just letting your coins sit and do nothing.

One of my favorite masternode coins is from Brazil.  They have:

1. A very professional development team active in producing wallets on various platforms
2. Smart algorithm choice: Lyra2Z.  Not nicehashable
3. They support their own masternode share service for the lowest fee I've seen of any share service:  2%

So that's my advice, get into CRS.

And hey... their Signature Campaign is live!!! So check it out.  300,000 CRS up for grabs!

POLIS, Xuma are a couple of good ones I hold.

Has anyone some advise for some really cheap mn coins, that are promising? I'm talking about the range of 100 - 300$ mn worth. It makes no sense to me to invest in a project, that has no potential IMHO. So any advise for some PROMISING mn projects would be greatly appreciated.

Syscoin will have Masternodes at the end of the month.

www.syscoin.org

and a calculator: www.sysnode.info

Thanks for the info. I will look into this coin. Looks like they are building an amazon for cryptocoins, if i am not mistaken. Looks promising at the first glance. If they can deliver, this thing could be good.

I don't think this counts as a masternode but I'm staking Espers in my wallet. Haven't got any rewards yet but the whole thing looks promising. Have little bit over a million Espers staking.

did SYS launch their masternode system yet? I couldn't find the updates for it

Why not making a DAC in pegascoin with 50K coins, keeping them in wallet, no need of VPS or anything... just deposit, close you wallet and receive your daily rewards.

DAC it's masternode evolved (masternode + staking + deposit features), why paying for a VPS too, when you don't need one  ;)

Is it gainaible or just be empty after hardwork

The coins are locked once the Masternode is set up, but you can unlock them at any time and sell them if you wish.

The truth is that almost all masternode coins are a SCAM.
Every day comes more and more MN shitcoins scam at masternode.online.

Usually only 1 dev, clone some coin, change the logo, clone the wallet, whitepaper, etc and make a HUGE PREMINE and put very high MN reward.
Create a new user here at BitcoinTalk, makse a ANN saying some shit.
So he sells MN and list in exchanges that require nothing like crypto bridge and graviex and start to dump his premine.
Probably this coin dies withih 30~60 days and who bought MN have a big loss.

I wouldn't say almost all MN coins are scams... There's some really good masternode projects out there like Zcoin, Innova, Pivx, Qbic, Syscoin, and more. It's definitely important to do research as you would with any coin you invest in, but again, I wouldn't go to the lengths of saying almost all MN coins are scams.

Well if we see at masternode.online, we can see about 300 coins with masternode, how many aren't scam? 20? maybe 30? I think that less than 10%, so ALMOST are scam.
Coins like dash, pivx, zcoin is obviously not a scam, but has high cost and low ROI.
I will see about the Innova, Qbic and System that i didn't know.

A good advise is masternode of Folm Coin, good project, asic and nicehash resistant, good and active team, weekly updates, showed their faces and is ready to launch the Folm Universe tecnology:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2975625.0;all

Yes. Syscoin looks like a great one.

Anyone know what the latest gossip is on how many Ethereum coins will be needed to run a masternode?

Interesting. I'm always concerned that some of the clone coins out there with questionable teams are just looking to sell masternodes for BTC in the early days, then do a whole lot of nothing while you're stuck with a masternode on a network no one supports.

I'd suggest ZEN to start with as the barriers to entry are pretty low - only need 42 zen to start a regular node and the project has been around for a while and is definitely a long term project.

I wonder if running nodes/masternodes will eventually replace PoW mining.

I'm a big fan of ALQO, and I recommend that you look into it. They have (like every other coin) decreased massively from the top, but they have a very promising dev team. They are rolling out an exchange later in the year, and they just increased the block reward for masternodes (at the expense of miners).

Which exchange are they aiming for?

Which one of those is your favorite?

You should never view masternodes as something that can give you a full ROI,  

They should be viewed more like banks that give out 5-7 percent yearly interest gains.

However, they can give fast roi times only if they are quality coins that grow in value.  For example pivx early to mid last year was around $1 dollar avg trading range.  It would cost 10k for masternode last year.  At todays value $5.5 you can get full ROI in about 2.5 years if pivx sustains its  current value.   If value goes higher you might even get a full ROI in 1 year.

If you choose a shitcoin masternode coins it may take 5-10 years to ROI b/c you choose the cheaper shitcoin masternode and coin value never climbs so you have to fully rely on the interest it pumps out and pray value doesn't drop.

Its worth spending the extra bucks for the quality masternode coins that has had success and you will probably ROI much quicker.


If you guys are looking to attain a quality masternode I would look into pivx,  You don't even need 10k units you can just stake any amount you have and get reward stakes in zPivx.

Crave is a good enter point into masternodes, with a great base community. By now, there are many masternodes, and price is low.
I've seen many times that scrypt and gpu algos have better coins for masternodes. Too many scams with x11.

Never heard of them. What are they trying to accomplish?

yup.. BTC and ETH

I will (probably) be trying out a GBX Masternode.

I have enough coins -- still looking into all the details.

I think that's a great choice. If you need help setting it up, come check out Setup Masternodes! They'll guide you step-by-step through the entire process.

Interesting... Can you tell me more about them?

Yes price is so volatile for MN coins.

Currently i have MN for :

DASH
PIVX
BLOCKNET
POSW (XSN soon)
Zcoin.

If anyone is looking to invest in an MN I strongly recommend ION

I've been with the coin since ICO April 2016....... What attracted me to ION was the fact that right from Day 1 they've had a solid business plan which after 2 years work is starting to come to fruition

At the very least you should add ION to your watch list  :)

That's a good 5!

I have a master of PURE
I want to run the master of TRB but there is no instruction, I can not also run the master of SUPPO

Take a look on AIRIN, not so expensive and devs are very helpful, there are also listed on 2 exchanges so it´s definitely worth of trying, I run one MN so far.

How'd the setup process go?

It was good, it has classic qt wallet, at discord channel there is a good guide to set up a MN under  win and ubuntu, you can make it quite easily even if you are beginner. These days it give me like 30 AIRIN coins/day

What’s the ROI like?

Yeah right. You do know that the DASH masternode alone costs more than $250,000 right? So for all those masternodes you would need close to or more than $500,000 USD? I highly doubt it. If you could provide screenshots then i'd give you 1 bitcoin. Lying will get you nowhere and will bring bad karma to you boy.

Exactly.

currently running several masterndes like ALqo, Bulwark, bitg and EPIC.

EPIC is a new coin with masternode, promising reward system.

and it has a working product (p2p Platform) ready to be rolled out.

thank god i bought the presale as its been sold out !

http://epic-coin.io

What's the ROI like?

It´s approx 25-30 days at moment, but it changing every day a little bit.

Nope. Will only do so once I find a coin I believe in and get in early enough. Most masternodes out there seem scamy so I stay away.

Which one's are you looking at right now?

These are good baseline ideas to follow. I wouldn't look at DASH, me on a personal level because of the ROI growth on it is very limited, however, it is less likely to fail as a project and continue to grow more successfully!

Hello! The problem with MasterNode is the price of altcoin. Growth of 2% per year. Investing in MasterNode is the risk of losing money!

I have:

- QBIC
- IMC
- Proton
- LINC

So far not one of them was a complete letdown. But I am betting on IMC where I am also personally involved as a mod and as part of the marketing and project managment. Currently the price is ridiculously low as most people just chase ROI. But we are very very active (you can check on discord) and beta version of trading platform for the intermodal bussines (which is a huge bussines in billions of dolars) is about to be released. If everything goes according to plan this project could see huge gains. Also it is cummunity friendly and half community drive. Alot of people from the community (including myself) are actively helping the project go on.

As usual don't beleive everything I say, do your own research and decide :)

Most masternode coins are scams, seems to be still a fad but assume it will go away or at least slow down after too many people get burned. 

There's some solid masternode projects out there right now. A lot of people have said exactly what you just said about crypto as a whole.

I was able to get it up and running without any issues.

Setup was a bit of a PITA... but hopefully it pays off =)

Anyone with experience with shared masternodes? And if services like this are actually legit?

I'm looking to run some OPCX and/or COLX masternodes. With all the new enhancemennts and upgrades these coins have, along with their well-plannned roadmap, they seem to be extremely profitable as of late.

www.mynode.rocks is a shared masternode service that we have been using for a couple of months now. They haven't stolen any coins and we have been able to make withdrawals whenever we wanted to so far. They would be worth checking out.

Yes they are legit (at least the trusted ones). I know of two that are ok for sure. One is run by a GIN coin representative. A highly professional guy. Have some shares there myself. The other I can vouch for is run by some russian guy I think. Also a lot of nodes and a lot of customers.

Won't promote here but if you wan't to know more give me a PM. Btw I am in no way connected to any of them, just a user.

Please be careful with masternode pools. They can take your coins at any time they wish.

I just started a few weeks ago with MN coins (been a trader for years, miner for months). Wanted something cheap to learn the ropes with so get an EBS masternode setup and running.  Took me a solid day or two to learn the ropes but once it was working I was addicted :)

Now I have 6 EBS masternodes and I’ve got enough to setup 2 more tomorrow.

Yes it’s a scam coin that won’t go anywhere. Yes I am fully aware the money I put into this is doubtful to ever return. But at $24/MN right now and a roughly 10 day ROI, it kinda feels like playing the penny slots!

I am part in telegram group about masternodes but i dont have no one.
There is peoples mine new coins with huge rig powers for creating masternode in the future.
I dont have this kind of power yet

I could say the same with any other crypto exchange though. I believe the node sharing services mentioned above have a reputable enough history to be trusted.


It's good that you actually understand the risks involved with your investment. I am all for hoping that you are able to sell before the price tanks and crashes to 0. The 10-day ROI is pretty good too compared to other MN coins out there. Hope you update us all with the result. Good luck!

You always have to ask yourself to whom you are going to sell the coins. There is no buying power for that coin on Graviex :) ROI is useless if you can't convert it to BTC or FIAT.

Right now I am looking at and considering Loki. It is still 6 months away from masternodes yet though.

Yes exactly. People need to do their research.

I been doing some research on masternodes lately and apart from the obvious ones(DASH, PIVX) these 2 stood out to me.

FantasyGold- working product in the fantasy sports industry, also hosting a DragonBall FighterZ esports contest in Las Vegas with future Esport tournaments. The development team seem very active in their Discord channel to any question ask. It also had a low total supply, the daily volume did seem a bit low the day I looked. They have been going for a while but had recently done a rebrand swap from DFScoin to FGC for the masternode. The ROI looked good to me. https://masternodes.online/currencies/FGC/

Rebellious- Very large community that are changing from Token to their own blockchain. This article off their website probably will explain it better then I can https://www.rebellious.io/masternodes/
Their was no ICO for this one, they gave the community free tokens in the hope the community will drive the token. It has also been around for a while now and has grown in leaps and bounds. High volume on Bit-z exchange.

Awesome man!

Just spun up 3 more EBS masternodes for the heck of it :) Wanted to practice creating a snapshot of an almost ready to go node on Vultr and then see if I could turn it into a running MN in under 5 minutes. I have actually been able to sell a few coins on graviex lately, almost no volume though. The vultr servers only cost $5/month to run so I can easily cover my costs with a just a few tiny sells on the exchange. I'm not losing money and I'm learning a ton about linux and masternodes

I've really enjoyed setting these up and running them so I've been now doing research into other MN coins, hoping to find something worth putting money into. Man, so many scams! It's crazy! Now that I've actually gone into the depths with this clear scam coin (EBS) its so easy to spot the other ones. I'm pretty sure I can even tell when the devs who made EBS are just spinning up some other crappo MN coin, its pretty sad

I am currently running 10 of 35 total masternodes, which is hilarious to think that I'm "securing" almost 30% of the network :)

http://explorer.elbruscoin.com/masternodes

Out of total supply of 1.1million coins I now have 100,000. I own almost 10% of the coin supply! I'm a whale now ;)

It's too late to be a BTC whale, but not too late to be a shitcoin whale!

That's pretty incredible!

DON'T SELL YOUR COINS CHEAP BECAUSE THE PRICE WILL DROP ! I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM !

Only problem with pools is that you have to completely trust them to not steal your coins. Even if they have a good reputation at first, you still have to take the risk that they could take your coins.

I started running a masternode on my GPU mining rig a few days back just to learn and have fun doing it (and of course because of the possibly to make a small profit).

I started an OPCX masternode which seems to give high staking rewards. I understand it's a risky investment but everything seems to work fine. I am getting staking rewards consistently and it seems to be giving me a decent income simply by holding coins. I guess masternodes can be really good and profitable esp. if you have a real solid coin. With risky shitcoins i guess it's all about cashing out in time before the price crashes.

Used to mine Litecoin on ASIC. Frankly, the yield per day did not exceed 12 $, and taking into account the cost of electricity -  8 $, not thick!
Now I'm thinking about the mastenodes, i've been watching the news about them for a while now. I'm trying to choose from three: GoByte, Zest and LUX.

Still, I'm looking towards the first coin - it's too tempting to hear the latest news about the decline in the cost of the transaction and the increase in profits for the owners of masternodes, which is not the case with other coins - they promise 70% of the award against 30% to the miners. It sounds attractive, and GoByte is not just another scam project - they've already collected the funds and the product is working. Guys, I need you help! Which coin would you prefer from these three and why?

I have a Qbic node and just started Gin and Rhenium nodes  8) 8) 8) This should be fun...

It looks like rebl will have a very big rise when they release their own blockchain. It's still relatively cheap to get in for a masternode before its too late.

70% does sound really appealing but I must admit I haven't done any research on the three you listed. I'll read more about them tomorrow, it does sound good but I am too much afraid of the volatility to step into any MN.

POLIS, shared with friends.

Since the community takeover i started a Absolute masternode. $ABS on the ticker.
The setup was straight forward and was pretty easy.
Sounds harder then it actually is, setting up a masternode.

Why not consider cheap shitcoins for a first try? I hear OPCX or COLX is good.

If you're going to start with GoByte or LUX masternodes then good luck to you. The cost of setting one up is enormous and will take more than a year to ROI (based on online calculators). It's really not practical if thats the case and you would probably be better off investing in traditional stocks.

That is one of the reasons why i started with ABS nodes, Still 'cheap' and the roi is good.
The documentation for different setups like vps and windows where also present where some coins dont even got that and it could be a pain to set it up right with only some general pointers.

Skip all the shitcoin masternodes. Get 1 masternodes of highest quality you can afford now that prices are dropping. Dash, stratis, pivx, zcoin, Zen cash supernode are good examples

I'm running calypso here their discord support https://discord.gg/2sFycC8 (https://discord.gg/2sFycC8)

I had one cerberus node that worked out the next two. After some time, problems began and nodes restarts were necessary. The project began to fall and I have recently sold all of them. Now I'm waiting and looking for promising nodes.
 

Bump

where are you researching?

anyone looked at RAPIDS RPD

because of the 60% MN payouts and 40% POS

masternodes looks pretty good for a few altcoins. Although many are quite interested in this but honestly if see this more, in the long term, will be a lot of risks can be obtained. fluctuations occur to make a masternodes could make lose altcoin be a thing that must be prepared to face.

All masternodes coins are somewhat of a long-term investment since the investor needs to buy and hold the coins for some duration. Examples of the masternodes coins include: Syscoin, PIVX, Dash

What's the reason you decided on these coins?

I have been running the blocknet masternodes for quite some time now. Although the daily profit is subtly okay am stil looking for another good one to run. Any one with another good idea should please share

I also have a lot of masternodes. And despite the fact that now prices have fallen very much, I continue to keep my nodes. Veil brings excellent profits with the POS.

Until now I didnt get into any pos coin, vail be my first one. I already bought some, and I plan to earn some, and I will buy more to have for masternode. Some people are talking very nice things about veil, that`s why I decided to get into this train, I will test it in very short time and I will give my review about it, after that maybe I get into some other pos coin, who knows.

The best and easiest to run for me is ZEN.

Not a masternode, but a secure or supernode. For 42 Zen (bout 400 USD) you can get a secure node and get a third-party service to set it up for you.

Yeah i am running a couple of nodes as mining of cryptocurrencies is not generating enough profit as it used to be. Currently i run Vivid, nodebase and i am thinking of adding veil coin to my pool of masternodes.

What is the basic risk we are going face in the long run because with the money i have very soon i want to run a master node which will help to find the best coins out there, whether the master node has any benefit in the coming days?

Having your own masternode is a great chance to get a stable passive income. The project is developing and today the cryptocurrency is at the very beginning of its development. Own node is a great passive income.

Try setting up masternodes that are cheap dash clones first for your educational purpose, some are worth only a few dollars.

I recall setting up my first masternodes like arctic, coinonat, eternity, etc. Made some good money as well in the bull run of 2017.
That way, you can learn and earn a few bucks as well. Then move to bigger value coins if you decide to pursue owning more masternodes.
Good luck!

Zelnode (ZEL). Solid project, solid team, profitable.

There is such an abandoned project iCash - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=996567.0
In 2017, the price increased from 10 satoshi to 1200 satoshi.
Yes, now the price has fallen and is being traded only on yobit.
But there are only a few masternodes on the net and one brings in over 100k coins per month.
Large purchases of coins and small pump also happen .

Passive income but at what cost?  If you spend$1,000 usd for the MN and you make $50 month in rewards (in the beginning) then the coin goes down by 50% not only did your monthly income go to $25 but your initial investment is now only $500. 

Good passive income is putting your money in any coin with a good likelihood of increasing in value, whether it be a pow coin, pos or mn coin.

Most of masternodes were done to make money fastly and go some start to compare with Dash but its the other history now most of them if not all just want make money so i can suggest to invest in alts with PoS if want profit like that for example DeepOnion.

This is so true. Happened to me when i tried to get into MN's. Also it seems like it is not hard to setup a MN Scam with your own coin. They get listed on these shady exchanges and MN-Listing pages without proof of having a real project.

You dont get it, dont invest into a coin because of its algorithm, invest in a coin because it has the promise to increase in value.  Just because a coin uses pos doesn't mean anything.  I can create a pos coin and launch it, doesn't mean you should buy into it because it uses pos.

Definately, there were so many coins that launched using masternodes.  I would not be surprised it wasnt from the same group of a couple different people.  Wash rinse repeat.  Glad you realize this most dont.  People put your money into something that has promise but dont let yourself get stuck with just looking at masternode coins.

I guess the actual problem was because the assumption was that everything would be all good and prices would keep on going up but that wasn't the case. As I say everyday, PoS also has its own demerits and this is one- huge volatility. Nevertheless, if you're in this for long-term reasons then this shouldn't scare you.

Is that a ZENCASH coin? that looks interesting for me and thanks for that.


that's another crap coin, stop talking bullshit about deeponion and that's dead. DASH was having so many partnerships that accepted dash as payment and that makes dash become the best MN coin right now.

nowadays, it is quite difficult to find profitable masternodes. may require large capital for that. well, the coin offered has a considerable risk. I might not choose this coin. well, however, that is a choice. so far, I have not seen a big development from the gold coins. but, given the price recovery, I think masternodes will soon become profitable. so far, I haven't run any masternodes, and are still looking for information about this.

No for now  I'm considering running a Masternode on Repme coin, 20 millions unit to set up the nodes, but the recent dumping making me skeptical in running it,   still looking for more good project to run

I launched  validator of a little-known but interesting project. I hope that this project can be successful. I am glad that I can participate in this project at an early stage.

Have heard so much about Masternode and I currently running a Masternode using VIVO, hopefully something good comes out of it, the next couple of days will tell

Masternodes are an excellent alternative to mining. But unfortunately among the projects that use masternodes there are a lot of scam projects. The risks of buying masternodes are very high and waiting for the price to drop hundreds of times ...

SM makes it easy to setup masternodes

I tried to run the master node, it is not very profitable at the moment. and where it is profitable, there MN is very expensive. I prefer to jump the stock market.
