I am just honestly curious, have you considered what will happen if there are not enough MN?

such a situation can not happen even in testnet with limited amount of people we hat 30 MN up and running
more then enough

the network need just above 10 MN
and even below its just things like quickTX temporary wont be available
an no bigger harm to the network

and the advantage of income for MN as long as there are less than 100 active is just crazy
so i see a strong motivation get additional masternodes online

still no stress first 7 days are 99% reduced rewards so everyone can stressless upgrade and set up his POS or MN nodes

I am sure the network will be fine.

My worries are that very few people will get 300% return per year for their MN, while the rest will get 25% for normal POS, which seems very unbalanced. As you said, just crazy, but I don't see this as a good thing, it could lead to a "rich get richer" scenario and more centralisation.

And yes, there are 7 days to set everything up, but as I said, for someone who has a few hundred or even a few thousand DMD it is pretty much impossible or at least very expensive to get enough DMD for a MN in that time.

I know there was talk of having distributed MN, which would solve the problem, but unless that is implemented I am sceptical.

I was just thinking that it would make more sense to have a wider adoption of masternodes.

Needing less than 2000 DMD would open the door to more people and help increase the price more, so even if there were more masternodes around it would increase their income since the price would be higher.

Since there would be a bigger chance of a price increase due to wider masternode adoption, it would in-turn increase the incentive for normal user investing.

Sounds like a win win to me.

as i did understand luis from miningfield
he will launch with a shared masternode 3rd party service a few days after release
(we did see his service page already active in the last testnet)
so with as low as 100 DMD i think u can be part of a MN there

there is no entry barrier

and if to much DMD is moved into MN and shared MN at a point POS become more rewarding then MN
so it will be balancing itself that always enough POS and enough MN will be active

I guess this would work the same then.
