Best example is DASH, for DASH you need 1000 coins = 83.000 US$.
See why I keep saying that 25M ESP for a masternode is not enough?
At this point, $83.000 of ESP would be 1.9 BILLION. Per masternode. Of course this is not comparable, but you get the point. It doesn't have to be "affordable" for the average Joe.This is definitely something that we feel needs further discussion, currently the masternode system is being written and the reason why we state this is because it's not going to follow Dash's methods or code.
We have decided to completely write a custom version of the masternode system and as such they will be called something other than that however, for easier user understanding/association we are currently using the "masternode" terminology and label so that it's easier to relate to while the feature is being built.
There'll be more information later this week and next as development progresses.
Also just wanted to mention that the next few updates will NOT be mandatory so everyone can relax a little about constantly having to update with the previous few clients.
Thank you everyone again for being a part of this and we look forward to a bright future with you all
