Pretty interesting project, interested in this idea of nodes alongside mining, ~~anyone link me to more information on this?~~

After some digging found:

https://github.com/EggPool/BismuthHowto/blob/master/Masternodes/masternode.MD

and

https://github.com/bismuthfoundation/masternodes/blob/master/doc/HyperNodes_FAQ.md

So a node right now is ~$5400 usd (10k BIS)

Requirements as far as hardware are a bit more than other masternodes but this is expected because of difference of hypernodes vs regular dash based MNs.

It's interesting that it will have a separate POS chain but no currency...the nodes but me rewarded with BIS somehow but how and where will that come from?

Will wait for more information about this but following..

Yes the machine requirements are a bit higher than usual, but this can be lowered later, we did this because we don't know how the HyperNodes will perform in real conditions. Anyway you can try with a low end hardware and see how it performs, then you can tune up the machine.

About the rewards, the PoS chain will collect metrics about the HyperNodes and you will get rewards on weekly basis. As for "where the reward come", from the miners; 0.8 BIS/block will be taken from PoW mining rewards and the HyperNodes holders will be rewarded for their contribution to the network.

For more info about the HyperNodes please come to our Discord: https://discord.gg/4tB3pYJ and check #news channel. Also you can follow our twitter accounts for more info about the project and updates: https://twitter.com/bismuth_cz and https://twitter.com/bismuthdev
