Masternode will be 100k ESS, supernodes details are still to be fully confirmed! Yes, the team will be updating this article with the weekly updates and progress

So which will require more tokens to run? a master or super node?

100k is pretty cheap right now... I was expecting that to be the amount for the higher level node.
Would be great to have the team provide more details

Masternode IS lowest level

Also, cheap masternode means low rewards, too...probably less coins than cost of electricity

based on current price, and amount of coins put aside for node rewards, those coins are worth 51 BTC

Now, lets consider for a moment we spread those 51BTC over 1500 days, thats 0.034 BTC total daily reward

Lets for a moment forget about supernodes, 820 accounts have more than 100k ESS, so eligible for running MN

That equals about 4100 satoshis per day (15 cents) per masternode

All we know about supernodes is that they'll be available for presale ICO buyers, and supernodes will get 75% coins, masternodes will get 25%

So final daily reward for masternodes will be around 4 cents per day (or $14.6 per year)

Now we only need to know how much electricity is needed to run masternode

Thanks for the breakdown. Though, your values are highly dependent on the price of BTC and ESS... $14.6 a year is actually huge compared to BTC mining right now - figuring a negative ROI Grin

Obviously, it would be for holding the rewards for better days.

"supernodes is that they'll be available for presale ICO buyers" - is this true? I'm not an ICO buyer...
