Wow so much great discussion about HYPER has been happening this week.
To answer some questions and provide an update:
- The HYPER Poker site is coming along well I actually have access to a working prototype and I think it's going to be a big deal when it launches.
- We have a new 500 HYPER RT competition on twitter, to enter:
https://twitter.com/HyperCrypto/status/543734837845430272- There is also another $100 steam game code competition anyone can enter with a simple tweet:
http://hypercrypto.com/forum/index.php?topic=368.0- New site design at hypercrypto.com is coming along nicely. I have been in touch with the developer and it should be live in a couple of days.
- In regards to an easy way for gamers to purchase HYPER with USD we have been in talks with a number of large fiat to cryptocurrency exchanges / payment gateways and one of them is going to add HYPER but they have not given an ETA yet.
If someone wants to set up a simple HYPER buy and sell website that lets people buy HYPER with USD and other fiat currencies I will provide a bounty to kick things off! PM me.- Dave Seaman has certainly helped get HYPER off to a good start, but I wouldn't say his involvement is the only thing keeping HYPER going. At this stage all of the promising HYPER projects seem to be what is providing impetus to the HYPER project.
- Don't forget anyone can buy steam games at 15% off at
http://hyperbundle.com- Meowball and his team are doing an amazing job with the development of the HYPERGG at
http://hypergg.com and latest updates can also be seen on their development blog.
- It's been a busy week I will reply to all PM's within 24 hours!
- I've been in looking into some other MMO's / online games HYPER can sponsor and should have some more announcements soon.
- We're making big progress on the next HYPER wallet update that will include inbuilt links to HYPER wiki, irc, website, Bittrex and will also have a UI overhaul to make the HYPER wallet more pleasant to use. Orphans will also no longer be displayed in transaction history.
- Game on and stake on thank you to everyone who is a part of HYPER!
Had to share this a HYPER fan is selling HYPER hoodies and T shirts http://teespring.com/hyper#

Just got the StarMade server registered on
StarMade-Servers.com, so it will hopefully attract even more public attention, which will then hopefully create more awareness of HYPER in the general gaming community! For the time being, I just modified the existing HYPER logo-banner-thing for our server listing on the site, but if someone with digital artistic talent (and more time than I have) would like to create a custom banner specifically for our server, then by all means go for it, and send me your ideas & creations!
Thanks to meowball for pointing this out to me, and registration on this site also allows our StarMade server, including current online/offline status, to be shown on the HYPER Gaming Gateway site! Awesome work meowball, and thanks for making it easier for all of us to see the various HYPER game servers and connect to them!
Awesome great work on the StarMade server!
Hey guys first time posting, but as meowball said I am working on getting something together for more Hyper swag to help spread the word, I have reached out to
https://bitcoingeneralstore.com/ to see if they can add Hyper to there crypto swag collection starting with stickers. so if someone wants to send me some ideas of what they think the stickers should say and a pic that would help.
I think this is the ideal way of doing it, so that way anyone who wants to participate, can by buying some and doing the footwork by going to events ect... and handing them out wherever your at.
oh BTW they accept BTC
One more thing, with Microsoft now accepting bitcoin for Xbox stuff, I see this as a door that just opened for hyper to introduce gamers to crypto, just sayin.
Will keep u updated.
Great work please do keep us all updated!
Hey everyone, if you've been keeping up with the HyperGG development, I am Mr.B. This past week I've been working on making a sophisticated HYPER plugin for Source-based games specifically Counter Strike:GO right now.
To me, here are the two biggest problems with HYPER right now.
1. Difficult to purchase - I mean sure, if you have an account on an exchange, you send them a check, they cash it, your account is credited and you purchase BTC. After that approximately 5-7 day period, you then need to move those BTC to Bittrex to then exchange the BTC to HYPER. Finally once the HYPER is purchased it can be moved to your HYPER wallet or anywhere else. I think one HYPER's main goals should be to make the process of buying HYPER easier and less time consuming on the buyers end. Sure it's no problem if waiting for the process I described isn't a problem but if it could realistically be set-up to allow direct transfer of fiat currency to HYPER, that would be optimal for HYPER's growth.
2. Gamer's don't know about HYPER - Sure you may be a gamer and know about HYPER, but I can say right now the vast majority of gamer's out there have no idea that HYPER exists. While there is still a lot of work to be done in terms of HYPER's infrastructure before it should be a mainstream thing, it would be a good idea to start spreading the word and getting people hyped for what's to come.
I agree these are issues with HYPER right now. As marketing and development on all of HYPER's projects continue these issues will be solved over time as HYPER keeps growing.
I am offering a bounty to anyone who wants to help promote HYPER more aggressively in gaming communities. If you are interested please PM me with a marketing proposal and your experience in online marketing. In regards to an easy way for gamers to purchase HYPER with USD we have been in talks with a number of large fiat to cryptocurrency exchanges / payment gateways and one of them is going to add HYPER but they have not given an ETA yet.
If someone wants to set up a simple HYPER buy and sell website that lets people buy HYPER with USD and other fiat currencies I will provide a bounty to kick things off! PM me.HYPER forums is down. HYPERfuture, is this going to be back up soon? Is there a forum update going on?
EDIT: it's back up. heh
The HYPER website, forums and wiki have hosting fully paid up for
one year so if the site goes down temporarily it is just a technical issue with the hosting (they have 99% uptime but as we all know hosting does go down from time to time) so please do not panic at all if one of the sites goes down temporarily. Hosting has been fully paid up for one year and the HYPER sites will always be there! As HYPER grows we may need to upgrade the hosting for the forum and wiki etc so I will keep an eye on it but please let me know if things slow down too much and I will upgrade the hosting.
After a community request HYPER has been added to CryptoCloudHosting.org as a payment option.
