Not so sure. It was said that Dash needs something like 4000 MN to scale up.

Yes but not for years before there are any (significant number of) users. Hundreds or maybe 1000 should be enough for testing and build out.

It costs $5/month to run a node supposedly (number from this thread). $10/month would probably be enough incentive for people to bring up a very large number of nodes, especially since people can own many nodes, which reduces the costs associated with running them. I mean look at a coin like Monero (not shilling here, and I doubt there are any potential customers here anyway, just happens to be one I know). It has 100-300 nodes with no incentive at all. How many nodes would you get with $10/month incentive?

Probably not far off the same number, I'd guess 2000 at least but it's hard to know how much effect their returns have had on adoption. They where implemented last year and no one could have accurately predicted where prices would go in that time, they return about 6 to 8 Dash a month and $1 wouldn't be an unreasonable figure to plan for.

There's a few things in the next update that can handle that better though, one is the network will know the market fiat rate and the other is the governance will be able to make decisions to set those kind of variables, tweak fees, rewards, that kind of thing. Not sure what will be tweakable initially, fees have been mentioned and tbh I'd prefer if that was all until it's had some testing but all rewards could be given a fiat value if that's what's wanted.

When that's working I wouldn't be surprised if masternode operators decide to put a lot bigger percentage of the rewards into funding improvements Smooth, the budget system is really well liked and I think most would rather see rewards in the form of more improvements than more coins but I'm sure the devs have added up what kind of computing power they could have at these rates and are eager to make use of it
