What is master node? I don't know anything about it.

In my opinion, a way to keep people from being disloyal and trying to cheat the system by using "borrowed" CPU computing power is to require the miners to stake in order to receive POW rewards.

That is what masternodes do:  @Fireduck A masternode is a node that usually does some specialized task for the coin and receives a reward for performing the task.  The masternode owner has to stake coin to buy the masternode in order to own a masternode and receive mining or work rewards.  In the case of DASH for instance, I think the masternodes help with Instant Send currency transactions:  The send transaction is done much faster without the usual required confirmations.

I like masternodes, but in the case of Arionum, in my opionion, they basically precluded themselves from being a CPU coin anymore.

It was somewhat profitable for me to mine on servers when it was about .15. Then the price dropped to .03; it was unproffitable to CPU mine for me without just mining on spare clock cycles.  Then they cut the reward by 1/3 by spreading the rewards to CPU, GPU and masternodes.  So then my returns would have dropped by a third.

Ok.  I like the idea of having to stake coin in order to mine because that makes miners become loyal to the coin and it also makes the coin more expensive to 51% attack, but it would take decentralization away.

What do you mean by "stake coin" @aikida3k ?

@Clueless to stake coin, you withhold a required amount of coin that must be kept in order to receive a reward.  An example is one coin I used to mine, the work was quantified in Recent Average Credit.  So running the program on your server would generate so much RAC per day, somewhere usually around 5,000 to 10,000 RAC per day.  So in order to receive reward, we had to do a very small, negligible burn transaction on the blockchain to register a CPID.  We associated our CPID with our stake amount, which was required to be 20 coin per RAC.  So 10k RAC required 200,000 coins to be held, staked, in order to receive 100% reward.  This leads to a coin lock up effect, that should eventually lead to stable or higher prices, especially with a higher effusion coin.

I'm on Win7, I've got that answer: "Error: Unable to access jarfile SnowBlossomClient.jar"

you can take a look at what client.bat does

most likely your jar file is in some other location and my command line was bad

I was assuming that SnowBlossomClient.jar would be in the current directory

There is a reason I said a command something like what I typed

TBH, I'm still a bit lost
I have this collection of 80 public & private keys following that form :
"keys": [{
"signatureType": 1,
    "publicKey": "AnegiZWsGC3seLvtiukUJXg2XIf7wcw0l8xwrtVpwd1i",
    "privateKey": "XXXXXXxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
                    
                bilounet
                        
                        2018-08-22 17:34:03
                        
                            
                            
                    
After that, I've got about 80 times the following form:
   "addresses": [{
    "requiredSigners": 1,
    "sigSpecs": [{
      "signatureType": 1,
      "publicKey": "AnegiZWsGC3seLvtiukUJXg2XIf7wcw0l8xwrtVpwd1i"
                    
                bilounet
                        
                        2018-08-22 17:35:08
                        
                            
                            
                    
And then, I got my 80 or so SNOW adresses with their timestamp creation
                    
                bilounet

So how am I supposed to link a SNOW address to its public & private key ?

They are in the same order of creation ?
