Excellent article. Your opinions and view were very well articulated.

Everybody at some point will question their investments because that is part and parcel of the investing and reflecting cycle but the way you expressed your views on the where it seems the future will be moving away from PoW towards PoS. If you expressed your views and concerns then you have a right to them. I broadly agree with most of what you wrote in your article. Masternode owners already benefit to the tune of a massive 40% share of block rewards and they have considerable voting power on top - so there seems to be a huge conflict on interest to say the least.

My answer to the question you asked in your article is categoric and resounding "Yes it does": "Does it seem a bit scammy for masternode owners to decide by vote, amongst themselves, to give themselves more and miners less ?"
