MANO COIN: THE MASTERNODE FOUNDATION CURRENCY
Some of the notable ways to earn in cryptocurrency are namely- day trading, swing trading, buy and hold, participation in ICOs, participation in airdrops and bounties, etc. However, another unique way to earn form cryptocurrency is to run a masternode.
Blockchain technology forms the bases for which crypto currencies are built. As already known, a blockchain is a digitised, decentralised, public ledger of all cryptocurrency transactions. Identical copies of this distributed, decentralised ledger (blockchain) are maintained across the internet by end-users. These copies of blockchain are called nodes. They provide the backbone of the blockchain network – relaying blocks and verifying transactions. Nodes are computers in the network of the cryptocurrency which receive new transactions and blocks, validate these transactions and blocks, and spread valid transactions and blocks to connected nodes and ignore invalid transactions and blocks. The number of nodes correlates to the security and liveliness of the network. Each node (a computer connected to the network) gets a copy of the blockchain, which is downloaded automatically.
However, masternodes go one step further by performing special/important functions. A masternode is a combination of; (a) server used as part of the decentralised infrastructure of a cryptocurrency, (b) masternode operator, (b) collateral or a bond held in a cryptocurrency which has masternode functionality (d) rewards –incentives for which masternode operators create a masternode. A masternode platform can be described as any cryptocurrency that permits the decentralised use of servers, which can generate income for the owner.
The cryptocurrency (Dash) was the first to use the term masternode. They provided instant send and private send services. The concept of servers providing services to a cryptocurrency network is becoming popular. (A server is simply a computer connected to a network which provides certain services). Masternodes offer a number of services comprising (a) privacy related function (b) instant send (c) cryptocurency exchange (d) hashing (e) smart contracts (f) commerce services.
Considering the cost of mining which involves the purchase of expensive GPUs, high electrical power consumption leading to high expenses, loss that could be incurred if the coin/token loses value, then it is no doubt that this lead to a rethink by cryptocurrency experts. Crypto experts, as at late 2017, predicted that masternode will gain popularity in the coming years. This prediction has come true today as just the first/second quarter of 2018, investment in masternode have increased. Investment in masternode is a great passive income generating assets.
Dash masternode is a good example of the benefits of investing in masternodes. Those who participated in the dash masternode when the coin was about $1 (with 1000 DASH masternode collateral – that is $1000) are now worth $1.6 million as at December, 2012, not considering the dips in 2018 experienced in the cryptocurrency market. That is, apart from the passive income earning, you also enjoy the increase in the value of the cryptocurrency.
The question is why are cryptocurrency lovers not cashing in on this investment opportunity in masternodes? That is because 98.5% of the cryptocurrency investors don’t have the technical/computer competency to set up, maintain and run a masternode. Various coins have different computer/technological requirements to participate in their masternode program.
Most investors are not technologically capable to learn the complex computer language and commands usually required to set up masternodes. What they want is to plug in their funds and get the rewards. This is where MANO comes in! The MANO coin project (The Masternode Foundation) has come in to provide solution to investor’s problem.
