What about a time cycle - sharing of masternode role ?
We have a fixed number of 125 MN operating simultaneously.
Masternodes begin to operate and they take their MN ID and fill the queue order.
As the number of MNs is > 125 then cycling begins and MN ID #1 forfeit the role and goes to last position of the queue and MN ID #126
takes MN ID #125 and begin to participate (MN ID #127 takes pos. #126 and so on).
The cycling time can be let's say 6 to 72 hours so any of the MN candidates can estimate the exact time is needed
for taking the role (MN ID #128 -> 3 positions X 6 hours = 18 hours to take the role and 6 hours X 125 = 750 hours to forfeit it... and so on)
(*the cycling time can be fixed or variable -based on the MN candidates number-)
I think this approach has many benefits against ordinary established MN implementations.
I always believe that a master node must not be a privilege but a supporting=participation role with additional reward.
just my 2 cents...
Interesting solution that seems more equitable to me for enter in one MN rather than waiting for someone to lose their connection or sell their CBX.
Yes, and at first sight your suggestion seemed to me like an interesting idea; except that the whole point of limiting the BPNs to 125 was to make sure these would get 6-18% return on their investment,
on a 2% inflation coin. If we allow such a rotation as what you are suggesting, we are essentially adding more nodes to the 125, thus reducing the yield. This defeats why we are doing this whole BPN system.
We will see how this 125 queue plays out in real life, but I don't think that this 125 BPN limit, with lossless queue enlisting and the continuous real life disconnecting of people (whatever the reason - not always accidental ), will be such a problem since it may not fill up
that quickly.
OK, let's just wait and see if all nodes are filled quickly.
I'm not concerned about the 'uninteresting' queue and the 12 hour inactivity limit personally. But I do think it will be unattractive to newcomers who are looking to invest in a masternode.
With so many other coins offering masternodes, investors may quickly move on and invest somewhere else when they learn that they may be sitting in a queue, not earning, and may lose their place in some unforseen event as soon as their node becomes active.
I also repeat, that holders of queued BPN'S have no incentive to run the vault 24/7 if they aren't earning interest. I worry that this will be a big turn off for anyone discovering CBX for the first time in the near future.
Anyway, maybe all nodes won't be filled, and anyone who loses their node will instantly regain it. Who knows...
