See why I keep saying that 25M ESP for a masternode is not enough?

At this point, $83.000 of ESP would be 1.9 BILLION. Per masternode. Of course this is not comparable, but you get the point. It doesn't have to be "affordable" for the average Joe.
To decide MN price in ESP we need to decide how much MN we need total.
We have 20B espers. Let's suggest, we need 1000 MN. Half of espers going to MN and half - to market flow. So 10B/1000=10M for MN.
You are making the debate interesting. All of you. Please keep going.
