Right now I can spend $6750 for 1000 DRK to setup a masternode. Earnings per day would be: 1.019 DRK = $6.912

I can also spend $6750 for 5870 XC. Earnings per day from POS would be: 0.54 XC = $0.616

Yes but you are forgetting about the fact that you will also get money from it being a node.

The thing I like most about XCurrency is that the mining is complete. Other coins, like DRK, that I have watched are fighting dilution. They go up in value, it becomes more and more attractive to mine, and many sell as soon as they get the coins. The supply of coins is increasing on a daily basis and this increases volume, and Market Cap, but puts downward pressure on the price. I looked at some of these coins and thought about investing, but the price I pay per coin is much higher that a the cost of mining a coin, especially if these are being mined on a college campus, or corporate system. This will eventually catch up and the price will slowly fluctuate up a down, with a longer term downward trend. I am comparing this to traditional investment where if there were a 2 for 1 stock split, the price in turn is cut in half, so the stock is not diluted. So, why would I invest in a coin that added significant shares through continued mining, with no immediate price change, other than downward sell pressure due to miners wanting to recoup cost and see this as an income source/job. I like XC because it rewards current coinholders with a dividend, like a traditional stock, that is usually kept in the account and not immediately sold. XC's upside through price appreciation is also much greater than a coin being mined and sold on a daily basis.
