Im think this is true to a certain extent. I would say negatively but I also think its easier to cut through the bullshit when coins are dying left and right while Stakenet is making progress in its roadmap and releasing new products and features.
Masternode as a service is a huge service and hopefully the Stakenet Cloud can capture a huge marketplace with this offering. 15c a day is really cheap, you basically can't get cheaper than that even if you host yourself. Eventually this offering will expand into other coins and people will come to know Stakenet through the Cloud services. Then they can understand Stakenet specific technologies and benefits and become part of the community via investing or just using XSN for services.
