Re: [ANN][KMD][dPoW] Komodo ICO - Zcash Zero Knowledge Privacy Secured by Bitcoin
Important note for KMD voters
Pay attention to the Notary Node candidates subsidy percentage!
Notary Nodes are paid monthly. The rate is 500$ per month. This includes the mined KMD, so $500 minus (KMD mined x Marketprice) = BTC payment.
Notary Node operators can lower their subsidy to be paid less, as most servers with the required specs don't cost 500$ per month.
By doing so, Komodo will save BTC! This BTC can be used for marketing/promotion, future development, etc. for the Komodo Platform.

Very good points , xrobesx!
I agree completely! The node operator's subsidy percentage is undoubtedly an important factor to keep in mind when voting. The fact that komodo is new to the scene means that conserving BTC is of the utmost importance, especially early on in the game, before KMD is established.
Please ask yourself if a high subsidy percentage will benefit the individual or the entire project and then vote accordingly.
Review the link below to see the subsidy percentages being asked by each candidate.

Also, know that there are 28 candidates in this election.
8 candidates with 4 nodes (1 in each region)
5 candidates with 3 nodes
5 candidates with 2 nodes
10 candidates with 1 node
From a decentralization perspective, again ask yourself if it's a good idea to have a single candidate running a node in 3 or 4 regions. Seems that 2 nodes per candidate is plenty imo.
