When DRK hits $100 a masternode will be worth 100,000 bucks
Who will risk running such a server besides security geniuses?

Could this become an issue. will future masternodes require less DRK?

Evan said he is not considering lowering the DRK requirement for masternode. 1000DRK is reasonable enough and will make the 51% attack harder in the end
The masternode wallet holds 0 coins, the 1000 drk remain in a cold wallet, you just connect that wallet once to activate the masternode, and as long as you dont move the coins the masternode remains active there is 0 risk of loosing your coins as they are held in a cold wallet.

Edit: 51% attack is a blockchain thing where you dont want a single party to control 51% of the hashing power. In masternodes you would probably need 80% or 90% of the nodes under your control to try and deanonymize transactions and even then if in a round of mixing it goes through a node you dont control boom its anonymous, so 100% of the nodes would be the only certain way if you use several rounds of mixing.
