Looking forward to a new wallet for a while! Any new word on that and master nodes?
Take a look at the wallet syncing guide in my signature. Masternodes are not being implemented yet, they're on the roadmap. Nothing has changed on that regard since yesterday when I last answered this question.
Actually, it's more complicated than that. It's not like devs don't want Espers to be listed there. It's just that the Cryptopia owner has something against Espers devs personally. So they don't want to deal with them any longer. Someone else can ask Cryptopia to list Espers though, listing coins on exchanges is more the responsibility of the community than dev's.

Lol I know btw I tried that and was having some trojan warnings in my antivirus false positives I assume?
