There is certainly a lot of untapped potential here.  I only became interested in cryptos at all because the dev of Hyper contacted me with an offer to sponsor one of my games.  Later on the same dev and I reached an agreement for sponsorship of another game with GoldPieces (Hyper's sister crypto).  Sadly the dev has been gone for many months and both of those coins are struggling to make any serious headway as a result.

One thing that would certainly be good would be an online game that used 1337 as in-game currency.  I have already asked the dev of Dragon Knights of Valeria to consider adding 1337 to that game's supported coins but it's not going to happen atm.

An idea... maybe a hybrid of the existing ideas? - when stake2play is back online, perhaps a portion of the coins received there could be burned to reduce inflation and possibly raise value?  (Though admittedly I am struggling to see how those running that service would benefit from doing it this way.)

Probably not a great idea but perhaps someone with a better knowledge of cryptos than I have could develop it into a more feasible concept?

6 votes on and it's still a tie!

The 1sat buy wall is big enough for it to still be worth staking though - maybe trading is out but staking can still be profitable atm.

Thanks - looks like it might be a close decision!  3:4 atm.

One of the things I like about this coin is having a dev who positively engages with the community. 

I honestly think having a working shop that allows people to use 1337 to buy games is the more important issue right now (but then I may be slightly biased   ).  I know you said you're working on it, hope that side of things is progressing.

Would you be willing to put the Coin Swap idea to a vote, let the community decide?

@Daffadile - this is the most recent info I've seen on stake2play:


I'm hoping it's up and running soon because it would be a massive boost for this coin.

Glad to have it back!  Thanks for keeping the daily play bonus active a bit longer to make up for the site being down too.

Anyone know how much coin age factors into staking with GP?

Glad someone caught that bug - I didn't notice it because I've been concentrating on 1337coin.

It's really impressive how many updates are being rolled out for DKV atm, good work.

I like the new wallet, nice job, updating was very quick and smooth.

Thanks for the update.  Just to clarify one point:


So we're talking about claims by ALL clans reaching 100K etc claims resulting in rewards for EVERY player?  (Not just members of a specific clan or indeed members of all clans.)  Are claims by players who are not clan members counted? 

Agreed, this is looking good.  Especially the idea of a new Skills system.

All done.

One thing... you constantly reference the ANN thread but as far as I can see, you never actually link to it anywhere!  At least link to it (or to SOMETHING) on your Twitter profile.

Anyone know what kind of stake weight is needed to stake within 24 hours atm?

Anyone else finding that staking is incredibly slow atm?

I think the main bulk of the game's income is from people buying upgrades (indeed once you have an upgrade it gets rid of the ads for you unless you deliberately choose to have them shown) - there are a number of different income streams for the game, advertising is probably one of the smaller ones.  (So from that point of view don't worry, the game has seen a lot of small balance changes over time and Anarchist is very careful to make a game that is both enjoyable to play and sustainable.)

Great news, will try it on my Android when I get a chance.

Are you talking about all those "Staked but not accepted" transactions?  I get a lot of those too. 

I have to say, the only thing about HYPER that I don't like is the wallet.  Agree completely that it needs fixing.

Really?  Guess I was just remembering how long it took mine to stake the very first time - thought other people had similar experiences.  (It's been a long time!  )
