lets say darkcoin gets to $35 or more,starting a node will cost a lot of money,before you get your investment back will take a long time and only after that time you make some money,in the crypto world there are much better ways to make money with such an investment.Now it's a great time to start a node but not when darkcoin costs $35.why will pay $35000 to make some small cash out of it,it's better to daytrade Bitcoin or something else with that kind of money.
If DRK reaches $35 then your payments are worth more too. And MNs will have other revenue streams.
And gambling more money daytrading just means you'll lose more money daytrading, for the 93.6%
