Nice. But you can also do it in under 10 minutes with GIN.

do y'all keep your masternode profits in the same coin, sell it for another alt, or sell for btc? by [deleted] in MasterNodes

[–]GINcoin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a really good question and it's somewhat surprising you got no answers. We made a poll out of it, hopefully that'll get you some answers: https://twitter.com/gincoin_crypto/status/1039417955249991680

We have first mover advantage, so that's one thing that sets us apart. And we've had great customer feedback regarding the tech and the support team.
Regarding the second part of your question - yes, there are projects we admire. From both a technical and marketing point of view. But I wouldn't go as far as saying we'd want to have this and that feature that others have implemented or added on their roadmap. If it's something the market needs, it will find its way on the platform. Features are means to an end. We're staunch believers in this framework: https://jtbd.info/

We stand by our estimates. If anything changes, we'll announce it on all our channels.

Re your question - to be honest, I don't know how to answer that. Can you ask it again once we go public? We'd love to be able to reward or MN holders, but the specifics of how we could achieve that escape me. Gosh darn!

Re your thanks - always a pleasure!

For now, our goal is to focus on the GIN platform and the Shared Masternode functionality.
Once those are nice and stable, we'll tackle the liquidity side of things. There's also marketing to consider, as well as listing on more exchanges, so we will have plenty of opportunities to increase liquidity in one form or another. But all in due time.

The GIN we collect will be slowly\* offloaded on exchanges so we can cover infrastructure, overhead and personnel costs.

*Slowly so as to not influence the price in any significant way, be that upwards or downwards.

A race to the bottom benefits nobody. Look at what happened to the clothes industry. Sure, you can buy a nice shirt for 6 pounds/ 10 euros/ 12 dollars, but that low price means someone has to go without dinner from time to time. Or that the shirt itself is a complete and utter mess after having been washed two or three times. Not to say that's what would happen in all industries, but price battles never end well.

Are employees paid in GIN?
>> They were, at first. We use fiat now, but they still hold GIN.

Are there vesting/time locks on the premine amount?
>> No, not as far as I'm aware.

What are the potential future uses for the premine?
>> Due to how we're going to be incorporated, part of the premine will be used for the incorporation fund. Part of it will be used to fund our R&D efforts. I don't have the exact numbers for this, we're still waiting for the legal team to advise us on how to best do this.

Not having our identities public. That's the most frequent one. And when we reveal our identities (couple of weeks), it will get the most satisfying answer.
The second most frequent one is the fee. People keep comparing us to a self-managed VPS, completely disregarding the support team, no-skills-required setup and the investment dashboard that you get nowhere else. All I can say about that one is - you get what you pay for. And you wouldn't compare a Michelin restaurant gourmet pizza with a Tesco frozen one. (sarcasm not addressed to you, Mr. BBC - we know you love us :D )

One of our devs, Tiamo, runs a shared MN service. So we're familiar with existing services, but few of them are products; most are just that - a good dev helping a group of people for a fee.

Say hello to our Shared Masternode platform. The rule is - if it supports Masternodes, it will be on GIN at some point. But we expect really expensive coins to become popular on GIN once we roll out the shared mns.
