Why Dividend Yielding Cryptos Will Flourish
The massive creation of new and upcoming ICO's has given investors a daunting and complex array of options coupled against greater risk on a ROI. The days of flipping ICOs on exchanges for a profit is slowly diminishing over time as the investment pool dilutes each and every day with the creation of new coins.
Competing coins and ICO will need to dig a little deeper in their offering to grab the attention of investors and incentivise them to buy and hold their coins.
Many coin offerings are starting to see the light and have begun offering dividends in return for trusting and supporting their vision.
The positives of dividend yielding cryptos is a double win for investors promoting the hodl effect which increases speculative returns on trading while offering the option to go long for a passive income on their investment.
We complied a list of current crypto offerings which have developed the dividend model (this is not investment advice). Feel free to comment below if you know any other coins that have a dividend yielding mechanism.
Digital Developers Fund (ICO)

MASS (ICO)
MASS is an acronym for Masternode And Staking Service, indicating the proposition behind the MASS project - users contribute to a fund in exchange for MASS tokens that entitle the holder to a share of the staking reward proportional to the amount of MASS token value users have assigned for staking. MASS will use the Ethereum collected in their crowdsale to purchase sufficient amounts of various cryptocurrencies to run a masternode if the option is available (e.g. Dash, where 1000 coins must be staked to become a masternode operator) or to stake high reward coins that will retain or appreciate their value.

Yes most certainly :)
Interesting read, I'm a big dividend investor but like the technology cryptos are bringing to the world so they are one of the few things I've ever invested in that doesn't give a return. Dividends would certainly help provide cryptos with a floor value and promote long time holding reducing volatility. Looks like you just gave me some research to do, thank you for sharing.
