Yep, DRK is a good coin, but I dont think they realise the masternodes could be its biggest weakness not strength.. If the coin gets a very high value a masternode will need to be like fort knox.. One on Amazon has already been hacked... Owner lost 1000 DRK, so its not a laughing matter.
Another risk of masternodes is pooled masternode owners creating network issues with denial of service attacks. In the words of gnos1s, Zerocoin developer (AnonCoin) speaking on Masternodes
"When the number of participants is low, the anonymity is low or nonexistant since each users money is not being mixed with many other users money. When the number of participants is high, a malicious participant can execute a denial of service attack by refusing to sign the transaction."This may or may not be a serious flaw in the masternode approach, I'll be very curious to see what dark devs can or can't do about it. I can easily imagine a whale controlling masternodes creating short-term panic for cheap trade entries, or perhaps shorting crypto currency pairs on exchanges that support it. Also, just generally speaking, ddos attacks are so cheap these days kids can do it with mommy's credit card if they want, so that's another noise in the background of all this.
Anyway, back on topic, let's see some more peer review!
