RFC-000-051: Determining which darknodes will be protected from the increased bond size

I think to find the best answer we have to remember what the issue is here, why we are even voting. We voted in RIP-018 to print some additional tokens to fund the next chapter of Ren, and to keep the node count at 10,000 darknodes we would have to increase the bond accordingly. So we have to get used to the fact that if option #1 or #2 is the most popular, then a node will now cost 118,000 Ren. Just the way it is. The airdrop was designed to keep currently registered nodes from having to go buy more Ren just to stay running. Then we had some folks in discord complain that they either just unregistered or hadn’t registered yet because of the uncertainty of the future. That is understandable so option #2 is there to assist these folks, this RFC wasn’t really meant to go beyond that. I think even 2000 nodes is too high of a max, but a nice round number is good, and if we get a nice healthy node count to start 2.0 that’s good too. But our treasury isn’t gonna be huge, we should be a bit frugal with it, and try to stay close to the reasoning of RIP-018. Stray too far and we may even risk having some fence riders vote for #1
