Masternode Cooperative Introduction: Masternodes help identity protection in the darkcoin network. Masternodes earn 10% of the block reward for their participation in the network. Masternodes cost 1000 drk to run. We will run masternodes efficiently perpetually and distribute drk earnings to shareholders.

(DO NOT SEND WITH DARKSEND, and any amount over 100,000 drk sent to this address will automatically be returned)
20% of earnings go to reinvestment fundhttp://i61.tinypic.com/xopbnb.jpgThis corporation will create masternodes with every 1000 drk it receives. Initially 100 nodes will be made. Masternodes are instances of a program that helps secure the darkcoin network by assisting miners in transaction processing.
All shareholder capital will be used to create masternodes. Every 1000th drk will be used to launch a new masternode and it will issue weekly dividends to shareholder addresses. These are direct shares.
Masternodes in DRK earn 10% of the block reward, this may become a variable in the near future, where 10% is the lowest amount the masternode pool will earn.
Masternodes can be expensive for an individual to create, yet have a high ROI, since many blocks are created daily. The securitization of the masternode system allows for less capital to be used while gaining the return and liquidity, also less risk, knowledge and overhead necessary for running server instances.
The operator is an algorithm, but overseen by a security expert with over 10 years in IT and network security, who has scripted this algorithm and server instances with the proprietary security tweaks to ensure anonymity and reliability to address a variety of concerns with masternodes and securing them.
Primarily, Masternodes are selected randomly from the set of all masternodes. This corporation’s masternodes change their addresses at the end of their selection round.
Secondly, the DRK will not be stored on server instances, and they will point to an addresses in an encrypted wallet.
Shares are issued in DRK. This allows for exposure to the masternode payouts and future payout potential.
Share listing and liquidity:Direct shares will be converted to colored assets when the infrastructure becomes available in DRK. There are currently no exchanges offering shares in DRK, nor any we have approved of.
Dividends will be issued proportionally to all sending addresses. Do not send fractional amounts for shares. Shares are .5 drk each.
This is managed by a script that is watching that address and controls the private keys.
To attract investment, recommendations for the share issuance (outside of this raw address sending method) are welcome. There are no known securities exchanges for darkcoin, and the infrastructure for securities exchanges are minimal
Expansion Plan:1) This corporation can exist in perpetuity whereas individuals hosting masternodes are already priced out and existing individuals hosting masternodes will eventually earn too little and need to shut down their masternode. This corporation will continue to create masternodes, and at future prices of a masternode as an asset, a different cooperative may be formed which will tolerate smaller earnings depending on how it is structured. This ensures the attractiveness of darkcoin and perpetual masternode payouts.
2) The masternode concept will likely be replicated in other cryptocurrencies and profitable ventures. This corporation will be well positioned and have the infrastructure to gain early from those masternodes too. The feedback loop that masternodes have created for their base currency will be very attractive to other blockchains.
