Sorry to clarify myself a bit more, the issue is that there isn't enough people mining. And using masternodes to solve this issue doesn't affect it much if at all. If the mining pools say there isn't enough liquidity for them to dump. Provide some it doesn't have to be a LOT. But helping to provide liquidy on the market would be a good thing. Even setup a bot to do some legitimate buying/selling instead of faking the liquidity and buying/selling to yourself. Start with the smaller pools first. Ones that have multiple merged mining coins on the pool already. And would be easy for the operator of the pool to add CRW.

I've been thinking about this, & the more I do, the more I'm inclined to agree with infernoman. PR & marketing is the real issue here, or lack of it.

More pools won't bring a substantial amount of full nodes. If every MM pool mined CRW it would add 20, max!

With masternodes (or whatever we call them) we could be looking at 250 full nodes within 6 months and 500 within 18 months.

We're currently talking to another developer of another coin to discuss adding masternodes.
He has his own thoughts on how masternodes should operate.

Once we have everything agreed, i'll come back to the community.
But until you can come up with a better idea to attract hundereds of full nodes, we're going to keep planning.

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.

What? 

First of all - "he" is a "she" as I explained to you earlier.

Secondly, I was & have never been involved in this project. I do however mine it & have done since the coins launch & still run 2 full nodes 24/7.

Thirdly:


Did I?  Please tell me which project that would be, as I'm not aware of being involved in any projects whatsoever, including this one.

Lastly - asking for the option in your poll to not have masternodes can hardly be described as "against everything the knights decide to do."

I'm a bit confused by your statements actually, & your reasons for posting such untruths.

But hey, it's your coin, do what you want with it.

I don't have a clue what's going on here.

Can we keep the conversation to current development? The issue of paid full nodes it hot.
We are very close to agreeing on methods of implementation and i'd like as many people on board as possible.

I'm still unconvinced that adding paid full nodes to Crowncoin is a bad thing. Infact, IMO they will benefit Crowncoin.
From what i'v been told the team is behind the move and agree it'll be beneficial to Crowncoin.

Also with the implementation of paid full nodes, crowncoin will become unique in it's own right. Crowncoin will become the
first crypto currency that has merged mining with bitcoin and masternodes. This will attract new fans and investors, subsequently
making Crowncoin more appealing to merge mine. More pools will pick us up and hashrate will rise.

We will have one unbelievably secure network, with potentially over a P/h of consistent network hashrate and 250 full nodes within 6 months!

How is this bad?

I'm looking to buy a fairly large amount of CRW.  PM me if interested in selling.

Would prefer to trade on an exchange to save using escrow.

I've got my budget...the amount I want to buy depends entirely on how many are for sale and at what price
