Happy birthday, two years 
http://www.hpb.io/post/185
Key facts:
- team of 60 people
- another hardware in development (smart contracts)
- strong Union Pay Smart partnership, dapp in development
- A new developer program to be announced, committing millions of dollars to help blockchain developers, and jointly develop high-value applications.
Below are some of the wishes we've received from our partners:
“Our blockchain-based authorization traceability system, where we work with HPB, plays a very important role in helping us to carry out our big data application services business with security and compliance. While working together, I can see the professionality and pragmatic attitude of the HPB team, which is rare in the industry. I wish HPB a happy birthday on the two year anniversary and [for them to] become a leader in the domestic blockchain industry!”

let's give them the chance for the benefit of the doubt. what I like here is they are showing progress with their developments. most of the launched projects last year are either dead/abandoned or trying to survive in the market. But yes, their actual performance is really far from their promised speed. they might be working on it right now...
But are they going to provide this unrealistic 1 mln TPS or they understand already that this is impossible at current moment and happy with their 5k TPS?
I guess they can't complain about their solid 5 k TPS, the next step for High Performance Blockchain is to demonstrate a live-broad use of their network with big companies like UPS and ITCEC.
The last progress from the bi-weekly report:
http://www.hpb.io/post/184
1. R&D Progress
1.1 Technical Project Progress
MainNet

They always said this was a long term aim but in my opinion they will reach this speed only thank to a lot of sidechains. Not with only one chain like the actual HPB mainnet.

This whole crowd looks suspicious
Union Pay Smart is a subsidiary of Union Pay, the largest paiement provider in the world, larger than Visa and Mastercard combined.
http://www.unionpayintl.com/en/
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UnionPay
It is the largest card payment organisation (debit and credit cards combined) in the world offering mobile and online payments[2] based on total value of payment transactions, ahead of Visa and Mastercard.[3][4]
They will use HPB. Specifications are finished, dapp is being developed right now.
Union Pay will use HPB's network.
So...
Kind of a EOSETHXRP from China

For the time being, it's far below last year expectations, but it's the fastest blockchain out there. They will improve their hardware...
One sure thing is that their mainnet will be broadly use, it's not (only) about nice little crypto cats:
After Union Pay Smart, which will launch their DApp on HPB this year, another huge partnership (world's top 500 enterprise) was announced today:
http://www.hpb.io/post/181
We have come to an agreement with ITCEC (China Electronic Technology Development Co., Ltd.) to build a new industrial city development and operation services platform based on our HPB MainNet!
ITCEC was founded in 1988, affiliated to China Electronics Corporation (CEC), which is a People's Republic of China's state-owned company and one of the largest producers of telecom equipment in China. Though the partnership, we will utilize synergies in our respective advantages, and work on resource integration in areas such as smart city, ecological park, comprehensive park, and industrial projects.

Mainnet launched last september.
Unlike competitors, HPB relies on a hardware solution, already deployed
The Blockchain Offload Engine (BOE)
https://hpb.io/boe
I view it as ASICS mining / GPU for scalability. It won't achieve 1M tps next week but you won't achieve faster speed than HPB without their hardware imo.
Current performance: 5000 TPS (10k within China), 150 nodes, 6s avg block time.

I didnt understand everything, but well, they promised 1 mln TPS and now this is just 5k TPS:

With a target of 1 million TPS and a 3-second confirmation time, HPB aims to become the standard for all major business applications in industries that require handling of billions of data points with extremely low latency.
1 mln and 5k is far from their promises.

Is the mainnet launched already? They really have 1 million TPS? This is impossible I think. Sparksters also promised millions TPS, but not they were turn in scam. 
The last video from HPB:
HPB - Adopthon Workshop Amsterdam
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RbIoGidETGs&feature=youtu.be
On Tuesday, 19th February, High Performance Blockchain (HPB) hosted an Adopthon workshop in Amsterdam. While hackathons are generally more intended for developers, this workshop combined professionals from different industries to explore and understand blockchain technology. This is partly made possible by creating mixed groups of newcomers and people with more blockchain experience. With this combined expertise we were better able to conceptualize real life business problems and explore solutions from different angles.
Website has been updated:

Third round of (hardware) nodes applications:
With the third round of #Node applications having closed on the 27th, we are now starting to distribute the BOEs to our new candidates again! For more info, please visit:

Wang Xiaoming, founder & CEO of HPB gave a huge Q&A session on WeChat yesterday.
https://medium.com/@kryptodave2/q-a-with-wang-xiaoming-founder-of-hpb-c8c899a39270
some highlights:
"Q6: What was the idea behind translating the Ethereum documentation early on?
Three years ago, there was basically no blockchain-related information, and there were fewer technical aspects. On the one hand, it is about the need to understand the cutting-edge technology of the blockchain. On the other hand, it also hopes to let more people understand the blockchain and join the industry."
"Q10: You are called “Blue Lotus” in China. How did this title come about?
Thanks to those who are supporting me and for giving me such recognition with this title. In the early days of this branche, I have been doing blockchain technical knowledge evangelism. So I published 72 chapters and more than 30 issues of the “Mingyue” blockchain audio commentarys. I also wrote the book “Blockchain Development Guide” during that time and I believe that many of the branch’s technical geeks have gained an in-depth understanding of the blockchain through my articles and books in the early days.
In addition to the Blue Lotus: I like the song — Blue Lotus. It’s lyrics reflect the perseverance of quality, which is what our entrepreneurs should have"
Q21: How to break the blockchain performance bottleneck through hardware and software?
HPB combines hardware and software to improve performance and reduce node cost. We improve performance by making optimization of node performance, network optimization, and hardware and software optimization consensus algorithms.
Our team independently developed the BOE acceleration engine based on the FPGA chip. The full name is the Blockchain Offload Engine. This board can be understood as a blockchain dedicated server, on the one hand to improve performance, on the other hand also greatly enhance the stability of the entire network and node security.
The adoption of real application scenarios is the biggest problem we are going to solve. In addition, we are also attacking the network and storage problems, and already achieved a lot of positive results.

Yes you're right hpb plummeted in CMC (from 100 to 300+) it may be seen as an opportunity as the tech looks so promising and already functional.
Why? There were problems with marketing, as with many chinese companies. It's a caricature of the "Team focus on tech" meme. They want so hard to deliver first on their Union Pay DApp to prove their 5000+ tps...
This ANN thread got only one page, this is ridiculous regarding the scope of the project!
Also HPB is stuck on two major chinese exchanges (OKex & Bibox) (+Kucoin) but that can change fast...
Regarding tokenomics&price action: https://www.reddit.com/r/HPB_Global/comments/at271j/tokenomics_problematic_solutions/

And the price goes lower and lower if you look. More that embarrasses this sharp displacement volumes more than doubled. What is the reason for this?
