The point is we don't want a computer noob to have a masternode.
And we don't want it to be cheap. It's supposed to be expensive. And it looks like it's a good call.
Yes, but wouldn't a future currency be easily accessible to even the most basic of script kitties?
Sorry, I totally don't understand this question. I also disagree with tombtc in that it's dang easy to set up a masternode and there are tons of people willing to help newbies here.
Yes, but if setting up a masternode only exist in the hands of the few then we have the same problem as the banks. Not anyone can open up a bank.
