Masternode Payments and Beyond

https://darkcointalk.org/threads/masternode-payments-and-beyond.921/

Devil's Advocate: doesn't it sound a but pumpish to say you've wanted to raise MN payments to 20% for a while, when it's never, ever been mentioned.

It's crossed my mind that it should be done, but I've never said it out loud... Never saw you say so, either...

This'll be new troll focus, so why not address it now?

Actually I don't think it will cause any pump, but rather discourage mining, and cause less interest in the coin, as it is turning into a closed system, where only real profits will be made by big holders. IMO.

20% is excessive. My interest has waned. Pigs get slaughtered.

I believe that is "working as intended."

Valuation will push for small USB ASICs. Probably cheaper and less energy sucking than GPUs while staying distributed and preventing The Bomb.

Diff already pushed reward to 5. Now it's 4. So? It was already nowhere near profitable to mine it... Hence the mob of inflatable X11 P&D shitcoins.

Minimum reward is 5, plus now that we have reached the minimum reward it will be easier for the price to follow difficulty. And the coin will appreciate significantly which will help miners.
