I wanted to use my free 2 GB VPS to set up and run a SuperNode today. According the requirements on the NEM forum, a SuperNode account needs at least 3,000,030 XEM.
Is this right?
I own only 1/3 of it. 3 million XEM are 21,000 USD at the moment. This is a big amount to let users be part of this network. Are there any other options to run a Supernode wish less XEM except a "normal" XEM node?
now you can create supernode for 3 mil coins and no any other conditions not, but as an option, you can through smart contract to build with few users on equal terms one overall score for super node and receive rewards at all, or to create a regular node or two - you can't afford that, there are no other options
I believe there was some discussion awhile back about lowering the balance amount for supernodes as the price rises.
It only makes sense, as (at the moment) ~30+ BTC to run a supernode is out of reach for most people, especially if you're just joining the ranks.
