maybe 5k DMD would be better for masternode so more people can invest ?
regarding actual existing and in future possible expanded ability of masternode network to reach MN consensus
a to big number of masternodes slow the system down
a in our opinion healthy value is 100-200 masternodes and that is the way we design it
(we could have gone easy go for 1000 DMD masternodes but fírst of all do we want to force people with 30k coins set up 30 masternodes?
and do we want to lose the advantage of ultrafast MN consensus by having 1500 masternodes active our decision was NO)
10k DMD fit perfect in this design decision and are at 0.00050 just 5 BTC invest if u start from zero gathering now
look for example at NEM(XEM) there one supernode is valued at 56 BTC this days and still 400 existing
yes we care for the little people who are longterm with us
i know many that are years with us mined and staked since the early days and yes they reach the 10k without ever buy a single coin at exchange
my highest respect for this longterm trust and support
we do all we can to give back to this people a value that they deserve
guys like him who are with us since 2013
https://chainz.cryptoid.info/dmd/address.dws?23778.htmand in my opinion that u can be equal with such longterm supporter qualify urself for a MN with just around 5 BTC if u join in new is a bargain
(how long that cheap is the question...)
and as explained before even below 10k DMD POS will be a income source that could be even more rewarding than the 25% per year u earn today
because the new POS system reward active POS nodes and there is no inactive POS rewards at all
activity and participation in secure network (POW/POS) and provide services (MN) is where the coinrollout goes in the future
the most fair as possible way
and im sure there will be people who see the business opportunity to offer hosted MN services
and other similar services that allow even people not able be active node 24/7 participate and get their share of coin rollout
