Just to be clear - I don't or won't buy the BSD to make a masternode on new collateral.
I already stated at which level I will "bail" on BSD, because it won't worth it for me - (the time, VPS bills, etc.)
I consider myself small investor in BSD, started mining when it was LIMX at around 100sat per LIMX,
got involved and decided to accumulate my mining rewards. Masternodes start few monts after that.
How can you run a 5k masternode profitable? Don't you have to pay for the vps and the static IP?
The reason why I see a increase in masternode BSD is because I know a few that briefly checked BSD and concluded that a masternode can't be run profitable because you pay a lot more for the VPS. Therefore they did not invest.
I forexample was at the same doorstep (coming from Dash) and saw no way that you can run a masternode at least self cost efficent enough if you want to host it outside.
However I didn't know about the multiple masternode per IP. With this possibility the bilance looks a bit different.
I agree with you thought that for the benefit of the network there should only be 1 masternode per IP. But if you do that with 5k I will have to jump the boat because even if I would try to host itsomewhere private the electric bill would cost me more. And the static IP are not payable.
So I really wonder how you this should work.
Where I think you are a bit missunterstanding the whole thing is that you think you get less with say 25K BSD.
At the moment with 500 masternode we run at 1/4 of the current maximum possible. This is at the lower end and is more an indication of a luck of interest in hosting masternodes for this coin.
If you check dash you will see it is 50% or more. So that's what you should expect if ppl are getting interested in this coin and that is independent if the masternode cost 25k or 5k pregiven you can host a masternode without haveing to pay more than you get back.
If there is interest the prices rises and the masternode part will grow to that sooner or later. If there is non masternode part will fall and so the price for the coin.
At the moment with 5k per masternode you will not be able to generate enough interest in the coin because everone will do the calculation and will come to the conclusion that it cost him or her more than what he/she gets back unless of course with the ugly multiple masternode IP "solution" which over longer isn't healthy but for now at least as long as we are on 5k absolutly essential to survive.
