And bottom line for newcomers is VALUE of their INVESTMENT
True and the worst of it is that prospective investors don't even need to consciously think about this stuff for us to feel the negative effect.
The Dash ecosystem does it for them simply by needing to draw far more fiat liquidity from markets than our competitors do. We require to draw both the block mining cost PLUS the masternode revenues on top which our competitors don't. Reducing the mining reward doesn't reduce that mining cost. Only a reduction in mining competitiveness can do that which is something we do *not* want since it would indicate a decline in demand for the primary supply in general.
Tok...I'm not sure what your agenda is. This is absolute rubbish. You are making these claims for months now...and your proof is ..."well look at our Market cap, it proves my theory" Your ideology on this has be debunked by many members of this community. There a bunch of centralized shit coins and pure POS coins above us...that completely refute your theory. Your argument that if coin emission is split between miners and MNO's that the MNO's spend all their rewards vs the miners. RUBBISH! I've not spent at least 90% of my rewards and I know many others like me. if the reward block emits 100DASH/month...regardless if it goes to miners or mno's or both it most certainly gets spent...miners on paying their bills by converting their DASH to fiat or mno's possibly converting it to what ever they wish. god its frustrating watching you go on about this. The reward system is GOING to get changed...DEAL WITH IT.
