Dear Aegeus Community,

We have chosen to introduce a poll regarding the Masternode Collateral. So, you have your input in this change.

We have chosen to provide 3 options below;

A= 25K

Pros:
Will initially reduce the current amount of Masternodes by approximately 80%
9,590,000 / 5,000 = 1918
9,590,000 / 25,000 = 383
Higher barrier to entry = more serious investors / higher volume
Less Masternodes = more frequent payouts to serious investors
Serious investors = Less dumpers = Higher value

Cons:
Too costly for less fortunate investors that believe in the project to get Masternodes. Fewer voters for governance initially.
Requires updates (which turns people off)

B= 35K

Pros:
Will reduce the number of Masternodes on the network reducing the time between reward holders and will make it more profitable to run a node. Will eliminate the people who don't believe in the project and will bring rewards to the people who really believe in the project.

Cons:
May cost too much for people that believe in the project currently about $350 for a Masternode. Would reduce the number of governance votes to a few hundred instead of a few thousand.
C=50K

Pros:
Masterodes becomes profitable to host, even when price suffers. 90% of our discord users have joined us from www.masternode.online and they are looking to buy a profitable coin even if the initial cost is higher than Option A & B.

Cons:
Big increase, forces smaller investors to stake if the price would increase Would create a big dump in worst case scenario.

As you will notice a lot of the pros and cons for each category are very similar because theoretically, they're fixing the same issue. The only real difference between each tier is the level of seriousness to acquire an AEG Masternode.

At this moment in time, the AEG Masternode is not attractive to the buyers and it hardly covers the VPS cost. The collateral change will make holding a Masternode more attractive as the monthly reward will also increase, meaning that the rewards will cover the VPS costs and then some.
Not everyone is supposed to own a Masternode. Only early investors and they have already acquired a handsome amount of AEG in rewards, now it's the time to make it worth having an AEG Masternode. Anyone with less than 25K AEG will be able to stake. So, in short, there will be no losers.
(*Note: We had an organized team vote prior to this earlier on and we decided to increase the collateral and propose it to our wider community)

Vote closing date: 28th of September 2018
Time: 7 pm EST

Please vote responsibly!

Best Wishes,
The Aegeus Team

Aiodex listing tomorrow!

Oh, now that you explained it and after trying it with my machine, I can also say that the same thing happens to me too. Maybe the team can add this (able to minimize the QT window in any size that we want) in their next wallet update. This will be very much appreciated by the folks like us. 

I can also to maximize windows, and I can extend it. His minimum size it's too big for me and I can't shrink it more

Just installed the updated wallet and d*mn, this is a very nice looking wallet. The color combination of white (silver?) and blue is quite pleasing to the eye. The UI itself looks very clean and very elegant. No useless logos or pictures. Good job to the person/team that designed this wallet.  

I don't have this kind of problem at all. Maybe that is a sole problem on your end (PC)? Tried resizing my wallet and didn't get any issue with it. The maximize button for its size is also functioning.

Definitely the best QT wallet I've seen!

Wow, new wallet really looks impressive. But I have one suggestion.
Why is the wallet window is not responsible? They have a default size, and I can't resize them. Just want to have more than one windows opened on my desktop, but now Aegeus wallet take 80% of my screen and I can't change it.

Thanks!

Hey,

We spent our own BTC to list at crypto-bridge where we sold parts of the premine in a ladder strucure. We did burn some parts of the premine, but still have a part of it left. We have now implemented governance help us grow the coin. Only masternodes are allowed to vote, if you want to vote you should consider to setup some nodes instead of staking.

no one answered me my question so here it goes again :


Where does AEG get the development funds to pay for exchanges, developers etc ?
I understand that each block makes 20 coins, 10 goes for Masternodes and 10 to Staking wallets . so how the project is sustained?

plus a new one, only masternode holders will be able to vote, what happened if I have a big staking wallet?

Mandatory wallet update before the 1st of October

2.0.4 contains the new wallet design, and the implentation of the governance system as well.
Please update your wallets and masternodes as soon as possible.

We will have an additional surprise this weekend/early next week 

Really exciting news!

[b]4  days[/b] till the reveal !

Hopefully it's going to increase !

Seriously, the cost of 1 MN is supercheap right now.

Aegeus masternodes are at very low price right now. I dont think people need to buy shares of a node right now.

Great news from the Aegeus project team . I think that the team is not idle and improves its software and creates a future Foundation for the growth of the project, even in such a strange market there are projects that believe in a bright future and are engaged in work.I think the exchange will be good.

Hopefully the market change soon!

This is a great project with a working development team and a big community! If there is a question, the team member already help in the discord channels. I'm proud to be a part of this comminity - especially in such times of a bear market!
