^ that is precisely the problem, people like you, looking at the % and ignoring the underlying value of the coin that % is paid out in. Paycoin was another proof of stake coin. Instead of master node, it was called hashtakers and prime controllers, and it offered a far higher % per year for proof of stake mining.  How many did you buy?

Crypto investors just keep making that mistake for as long as Ive been around. Once upon a time, it was through "mining bonds" that paid like 10% per month (but devaluated 2x faster), then came all the 7% per week ponzi schemes, then cloud mining, now its Proof of Stake mining.

One day, you will come to understand that a deflationary coin, just like in investment in gold,  doesnt need and cant even support interest or percentage growth. Anything in crypto that does promise asset growth is always either a scam or a highly risky and usually terrible investment. The only potential sustainable gain with deflationary coins, or commodities like gold, is in the value of the asset itself. If you want x% growth, use fiat and take it to a bank.
