Yep, you can certainly connect= to more than one peer.
Setting listen=0 may also help, to prevent peers initiating connections to you (can't remember if -connect implies that)
Just remember you have a custom config! If those nodes drop offline at some point in the future, you may find yourself with zero connections to the network.

I've disabled HYP for the moment.You could connect exclusively to a known good peer, so that you can continue to participate on staking and temporarily avoid the spam from outdated peers. To do this, remove/comment any addnodes you might have on the conf file, and have instead:
Code:
connect=104.131.135.232
I don't know if the "connect" command accepts more than one node.
If it does, you can also include these additional ones:
Code:
connect=192.241.233.70
connect=162.243.151.111
connect=162.243.151.111
These are some of presstab's nodes. By connecting exclusively to one of these, you know you're on the right chain, as well as you prevent connecting to the outdated peers.
Happy Staking!

HYP it use a lot upload b/w 
There's a long standing bug (or perhaps an oversight) in most *coin code where peers on an older fork will repeatedly ask for the same set of blocks from those on the new/current fork. Neither the requesting peer, nor the sending peer, have any code to check for duplicate requests, so they just continue in an endless loop, requesting and transferring the same blocks, over and over. That is most likely why your client is using a lot of upload bandwidth right now.

Updated QT client with checkpointed chain and alert keys - https://www.dropbox.com/s/6asbiaytsnvzwh1/HyperStake-qt.zip
Note when you use this build, you will want to make sure to be connected to others using the same build for information to be displayed properly. In you config file, add these lines:
If you are not connected to nodes with the same version your wallet will still be fully functional and ready to stake, but you won't be able to get any alerts sent out, and your peers block count wont reflect 100% right.

Hmmm not sure why conf would make it crash. Make sure it is hyperstake.conf
If it continues to crash, then I would forget about the conf and just type into debug manually "addnode 192.241.233.70 add" etc.
You will be fine without these nodes, but they will make sure that your peer block count is displayed correctly. Sorry I didnt reply, overlooked it. Have been multitasking like crazy for HyperStake lately. Let me know if you have any more problems that come up.

Went to send some coin and realized I was getting 1000000000000000 stakes a second... oops. What happened? What's the PoS security threat?

sadly i think cryptsy's wallet is on a fork awaiting confirmation, but just withdrew about 2500 hyp, and an hour later the txid is still not showing up in any of the block explorers
edit* confirmed their wallet is ~200 blocks ahead of the http://hyp.cryptocoinexplorer.com/ height....
sonofabitcoin... cryptsy support always sucks balls

I just sent 25 HYP from cryptsy to myself, and it came right in. They are on the correct chain.
Both of my wallets have been in sync for a couple of hours now. Did coin control on one wallet while it was in sync, that worked okay. Tried the other wallet when it was in sync,
though went in and out of sync, while doing coin control. Did not seem to affect it. Sent 20k from Polo came through in about a minute or so. Seems the bad nodes are disappearing
or being blocked by the good nodes? Seems to be straightening itself, on its own. Cool! I guess a little patience was in order Thanks, presstab!
Peace!

I do not understand. I am at least 11 successive blocks are orphaned. Total Amount of the 11 blocks orphan is plus 7000 HYP. What is going on? Does anyone like this? Sorry for my poor english.
See original post. You need to update your wallet ASAP.

how do I update from the old client to the new client on my Pi? I tried entering in what it says to on the wiki but that didn't do anything. I am a linux noob completely.
February 14, 2015, 01:27:15 PM
I working on some new code that will make everyone happy. It won't be ready until its ready though. Don't want to rush it out. Should be out later today.
If you are having problems with the correct chain. It is normal to say out sync (well normal for now). Check your block height vs the height at hyp.cryptocoinexplorer.com or jump on irc and ask the guys there from help, or type !height.
If you are wrong height, with version 1.1 of wallet.
Turn off wallet. Go to command line. Change to the directory that holds HyperStake.exe by using "cd c:\users\press\documents\" or whereever.
Enter "HyperStake.exe -reindex"
This should rescan your chain and hopefully make sure you are on the correct fork.
