How to make a passive income from Kowala masternodes?

  • Mining for mUSD by staking then in a node. 30,000 coins are needed to create a Kowala masternode. These will generate kUSD. The block reward is variable. The amount depends on the price of kUSD. If the stable coin is below or above the $1 then the block reward will be adjusted in order to stimulate the market to keep the value at $1. Another mechanism is to freeze kUSD taking it out of the circulation. Collateral is not locked to create the stable coin unlike Maker.dao
  • Fees from transactions will be shared among the miners.
  • According to Kowala if the market cap goes up to 3 billion the expected returns are of 83 kUSD per month.
