Hi everyone,

I wanted to get some peoples opinion on what(if anything) was going on with my masternode I had set up for SPD (Stipend).

Here's why I felt something was not right.
   1) I had one of the Admins help me set up my masternode as I am new to this. Discord pretty active 95% of the time Admin available(4-5 for this coin)
   2) After the first day the payments started to reduce dramatically while not many new masternodes where being created yet.(I was like the 45th-47th node built)
   3) After the rewards started slowing down dramatically I started to look around and ask a few questions in the Discord rooms and was surprised what I found but am still
   not sure if something fishy was going on.
   4) What I discovered was when I went into the windows wallet and looked for my IP Address in the list of active masternodes the "pubkey" that was listed with my masternode
   was not MY wallet address.
   5) I proceeded to ask people in different coin rooms that had running MN's if their pubkey matched 1 of their wallet address' and every single person answered yes and I was even
   supplied quite a few pics to show me.

So my question is (sorry to drag this out) if I had someone help me set this MN up would they be able to send rewards to themselves only to send me some of them or maybe switch back and forth between what address actually receives the reward?

Thanks for your time guys and appreciate any feedback.

Hey! Stumbled upon your post while looking at these forums. DM me in the Discord (NickS) and we'll sort things out. In regards to your questions, well the rewards are primarily slowing down because more and more MNs are being added to the network, on top of the reward scheme being random in its entirety. Also, are you sure you saw the correct IP address on the network? It's not currently possible to switch the address back and forth, and if you had been receiving rewards at some point than your MN must've been setup correctly. It is possible to send rewards to a different address though, through the "Donation" function, although this wouldn't have been active if you did receive the correct amount for each MN reward (25 SPD)
