When I invested in this I was under the impression that the masternode hardcap was 250 and the max supply is 10,000. Those were the two main reasons I invested.

It appears that the masternode cap was removed based on voting. I question the method in which the voting was done.

Also, based on the block explorer the current supply is 10611.27348952. This is above 10,000.

I can see how removing the masternode cap and putting these coins on mnrank.com masternodes.pro and masternodes.online would appreciate more in the short term, but i was not thinking short term. I was thinking i am buying something that only has 250 in the world and it would be a wonderful gift to give my children. By then maybe it would create enough so that they don't have to work. I bought this for this super long term gamble, hoping that the various other attractive features would draw investors to the coin on exchanges.

Also, in response to the ddos problem with masternodes, here is a possible solution: (i am a programmer but have not worked with programming crypto)

When coins are sent to an address on the blockchain and activated as a masternode, then that masternode reserves a provable spot based on the coins in that address. I was under the impression that this person is now permanently allowed to have a masternode and it would be reserved even if he was kicked offline because he has 20 coins in that address still. So there would basically be a queue of addresses that are allowed to be activated by the activate masternode command, and no new masternodes could be created unless one of these addresses no longer has 20 coins in it. Honestly it should be up to this person whether they want to set up a masternode for their coins or not. If they want to reserve a spot and not use it then its whatever, more coins for us.

I am still optimistic for the future but these are just my thoughts on recent changes.
