So at block 149227 now, this will be at 20% for a couple years still.

80,001 - 110,000 = 100%
110,001 - 1,000,000 = 20%
1,000,001 - infinity = 5%

several years, yes .... remember, though that you share staking rewards with the FNs, 60-40 ... so the staker gets 8% not counting compounding.

Oh, so the people running the masternodes get part of what the stakers are getting? why not just say the stakers get 8%.

not sure how that system came into being, but I have seen it in other coins as well .... maybe because the blocks in the blockchain originate with the stakers (in PoS coins) while the nodes function to stabilize the blockchain. Also, maybe because in most coins the blockchain is set up and initially released with the reward structure, and then the masternodes are added later ... which is what happened in this case.
