More pools won't bring a substantial amount of full nodes. If every MM pool mined CRW it would add 20, max!
That's not quite true - miners who use merge mined pools would more than likely have their own wallets also. If just one pool had 200 miners, then they would more than likely have a CRW wallet to withdraw their coins to. Times that by 20 (pools) & the number will be far more accurate. Also, p2pool users who merge mine CRW run full wallets.
With masternodes (or whatever we call them) we could be looking at 250 full nodes within 6 months and 500 within 18 months.
Where are you getting this info from?
But until you can come up with a better idea to attract hundereds of full nodes, we're going to keep planning.
We did. More PR & marketing. Get the word out there.
ED: I also think you shaoul add the option in the poll to say no to masternodes (or whatever you want to call them).
1. Most pool miners won't have a Crowncoin wallet open 24/7/365. Most will send coins straight to an exchange to sell and will never see a qt wallet.
We need full nodes that are active all day, all year and their sole purpose to be a full node.
Dash has around 4000 full nodes right now thanks to masternodes. No amount of MM will ever get us to anywhere near 400 let alone 4000.
2. It's speculation. Based on relative comparable marketcap (bitcredits) has a marketcap of $40k and has 250 'basenodes'.
This is achievable within 6months imo.
3. Again, no matter how much advertising or promo we do, we'll never get the results masternodes will provide.
