Question: Due to big HYPER projects like Poker site, giveaways, competitions, bounties and marketing the 500 000 HYPER MMO Development Fund will be at 450 000 HYPER soon. What should we do?
Keep sponsoring more awesome HYPER projects and spend it down to 400 000 HYPER and then preserve the fund at 400 000 HYPER - 115 (45.1%)
Limit spending (less HYPER projects) until the monthly staking brings the fund back up to 500 000 HYPER - 40 (15.7%)
Manage it how you like. HYPER seems to be going awesome keep it up! - 100 (39.2%)

Something interesting happened today: I staked a block and it didn't split my transaction. It worked like this:

1) Took 1 output of 100
2) Gave one input of 105

Normally what it would do is:

1) Take 1 output of 100
2) Give two inputs of 52.5 (105)

Was there a change to how staking works?

Pinging this as it looks like it was missed...

Also, are there any gambling sites that accept HYPER and are open to investors? Like dice sites or something?

Ok I might be in a bit over my head here trying to get Dragon Ball XenoVerse as a way to earn Coin2/HYPER, if anyone wants to help me out a bit or even help out getting the game going as an MMO since the basic elements are all there please feel free to join the convo in this thread: http://dbxvmods.freeforums.net/thread/1499/suggestion-use-dbxv-mmorpg?page=1


I'm sure HYPER could benefit from this as well, its a new game, seems pretty popular, and has its own modding community already. They need programmers to help out and are very interested in the idea of making it into an mmo as the original programmers did a a so so job considering some of the things that dont work but should.

My main concern is licensing issues, this is why.

Quote
"Counterclaimant Evony, LLC, is a developer and operator of video game software, including an internet browser-based multiplayer real-time simulation strategy game known as Evony®, available at www.evony.com (“Evony Game”). Evony LLC is the owner of all exclusive and substantial rights and privileges in U.S. Copyright Registration No. X0007175070, which comprises the computer code of the Evony Game.

Counterdefendant Heroic Era (“Heroic”), a foreign corporation with its principal place of business in China, launched an internet browser-based multiplayer real-time city-building simulation strategy game named Caesary (“Caesary Game”) through the online gaming network known as Kongregate, located at www.kongregate.com/games/caesary/caesary. Evony LLC alleges that the Caesary Game has the same look and feel and uses the same code as the Evony Game.


On June 3, 2010, Heroic filed the instant action in this Court against Evony, LLC, and Regan Mercantile, LLC’s (collectively “Evony”) seeking a declaratory judgment that its Caesary Game does not infringe Evony’s copyrights. In turn, Evony filed counterclaims against Heroic for copyright infringement, and misappropriation of copyright. The Court subsequently struck Heroic’s Complaint and dismissed the action against Evony with prejudice. The dismissal of the Complaint was pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 37(b)(2)(A) and was based on Heroic’s discovery abuse. As a result, only Evony’s counterclaims remain pending in this action.


Evony subsequently filed a motion for default judgment on its counterclaims. In its motion, Evony seeks $226,839.75 in actual damages and $1,500,000.00 in statutory damages, plus $311,252.71 in attorneys’ fees and $36,417.16 in costs. In addition, Evony seeks an injunction preventing Heroic from using, selling or distributing the source code for the Caesary Game. The Court referred the motion to Magistrate Judge Bernard Zimmerman (“the Magistrate”) for preparation of a report and recommendation, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B). Herioc failed to oppose either motion or appear at the motion hearing.


On May 5, 2011, the Magistrate issued a written decision analyzing the various requests submitted by Evony. The Magistrate concluded that Evony had substantiated its request for $226,839.75 in actual damages, but found that Evony was entitled to recover only $150,000 in statutory damages based on a single act of willful infringement. Concluding that Evony was not entitled to recover both actual and statutory damages, the Magistrate recommended awarding $226,839.75 in actual damages, as the greater of the two amounts. With regard to attorneys’ fees and costs, the Magistrate recommended awarding the amounts sought by Evony. Finally, the Magistrate recommended granting the requested injunctive relief to enjoin Heroic’s use of its Evony’s source code and otherwise infringing on its copyrights. Heroic has not objected to the Magistrate’s report and recommendation."

If a valid license can be provided I may be able to help with it, otherwise I don't have $300,000 to protect myself in case of a lawsuit.

I haven't noticed anything strange about the staking. I will check with our developer who released the last wallet update. Everything seems fine to me.

Also, there are currently no sites where you can invest HYPER. The site needs to be run by someone trustworthy. Would love to see an investment option like this somewhere. Maybe Octoplay has it? I am not sure.

And help my


Yes, as stated on the HYPER wiki on the rust page at http://hypercrypto.com/wiki we do not currently have a RUST server as the last Rust admin left the project. Also the latest version of Rust is no longer compatible with Linux servers, and our gaming infrastructure is on the whole Linux based.

If we do not have a new server up in a couple of months a member of the community has volunteered to set up another HYPER Rust server.

Please remember HYPER is run by volunteers who sometimes receive tips / bounties for their work. We do our best with the resources we have. (And if you read our strategy document at http://hypercrypto.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/HYPER-Goals-and-VIsion-Official.pdf we are doing pretty darn well if I do say so). The only thing missing from the Strategy document is the HYPER integration in RPG Dragon Knight where it can be traded for other in-game resources on the free market trading platform between players. WIll need to release an updated version soon.

True but we are still only improving upon this game. I have no idea what Bandai's licensing agreement says, but we can look into it. I don't think we could get in much trouble running a private server other than being asked to shut it down.

That would be awesome if CryptoDatabse could help. This project (if we do it) will get full HYPER support with PR campaigns, etc. KingArbin can you please contact the original devs and see if there are any licensing issues? What is the open-source license? Does it have an open-source license? If everything looks good let's get started! But CryptoDatabase is right we need to make sure everything is above board and legal before we start.

The Court subsequently struck Heroic’s Complaint and dismissed the action against Evony with prejudice. The dismissal of the Complaint was pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 37(b)(2)(A) and was based on Heroic’s discovery abuse. As a result, only Evony’s counterclaims remain pending in this action.


Evony subsequently filed a motion for default judgment on its counterclaims. In its motion, Evony seeks $226,839.75 in actual damages and $1,500,000.00 in statutory damages, plus $311,252.71 in attorneys’ fees and $36,417.16 in costs. In addition, Evony seeks an injunction preventing Heroic from using, selling or distributing the source code for the Caesary Game. The Court referred the motion to Magistrate Judge Bernard Zimmerman (“the Magistrate”) for preparation of a report and recommendation, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B). Herioc failed to oppose either motion or appear at the motion hearing.


On May 5, 2011, the Magistrate issued a written decision analyzing the various requests submitted by Evony. The Magistrate concluded that Evony had substantiated its request for $226,839.75 in actual damages, but found that Evony was entitled to recover only $150,000 in statutory damages based on a single act of willful infringement. Concluding that Evony was not entitled to recover both actual and statutory damages, the Magistrate recommended awarding $226,839.75 in actual damages, as the greater of the two amounts. With regard to attorneys’ fees and costs, the Magistrate recommended awarding the amounts sought by Evony. Finally, the Magistrate recommended granting the requested injunctive relief to enjoin Heroic’s use of its Evony’s source code and otherwise infringing on its copyrights. Heroic has not objected to the Magistrate’s report and recommendation."

If a valid license can be provided I may be able to help with it, otherwise I don't have $300,000 to protect myself in case of a lawsuit.

True but we are still only improving upon this game. I have no idea what Bandai's licensing agreement says, but we can look into it. I don't think we could get in much trouble running a private server other than being asked to shut it down.

That would be awesome if CryptoDatabse could help. This project (if we do it) will get full HYPER support with PR campaigns, etc. KingArbin can you please contact the original devs and see if there are any licensing issues? What is the open-source license? Does it have an open-source license? If everything looks good let's get started! But CryptoDatabase is right we need to make sure everything is above board and legal before we start.

I'm looking into it now, I found some bandai licensing info but it seems to be talking about their online services rather than modifying their games. The game is not open-source definitely, it was just released less than 6 months ago. Were still in the safe zone as far as the government is concerned on how were profiting since technically bitcoin is the only one considered a currency and the rest are property. As far as modifying XenoVerse to be an mmo and reverse engineering it using the tools here: https://github.com/DarioSamo/LibXenoverse
The modding forums say that these tools need to be modified to crack the game more efficiently.

If it falls under the original Dragonball Licensing, then all we have to do is give credit where it is due, at least thats how it was 10 years ago, things could have changed. I'll keep digging and let u know what i find in another 20 min.

Here are some quotes from their licensing agreements,

Quote
Commercial use of the Game is prohibited.

Quote
You will refrain from using any hacks, cracks, bots, or third party Game which may modify, temporarily or permanently, the code or the user experience of the Game, whether on your local machine or on servers which enable use of any features of the Game.

Quote
You may not do any of the following:

    Copy the Game except a single backup copy;
    Sell, rent, lease, license, distribute or otherwise transfer or make the Game available to any other person, in whole or in part, or use the Game or any part thereof in any commercial context, including but not limited to use on a commercial website, or in a service bureau, "cyber cafe", computer gaming center or any other commercial location in which multiple users who have not each separately purchased the Game may access the Game program. BANDAI NAMCO may offer a separate Site License Agreement to permit you to make the Game available for commercial use; see the contact information below;

This applies to all of their games, new and old.

Basically their game can't be used without direct permission from them.

This is in the XenoVerse EULA upon use of the software


You may not do any of the following:



*Copy the Game except a single backup copy;


*Sell, rent, record, lease, license, distribute, or otherwise transfer or make the Game available to any other person, in whole or in part, or use the Game or any  part thereof in any commercial context, including but not limited to use on a commercial website, or in a service bureau, "cyber café," computer gaming center,  or any other commercial location in which multiple users who have not each separately purchased the Game may access the Game program. BNGA may offer a  separate site license agreement to permit you to make the Game available for commercial use; see the contact information below;


*Reverse engineer, derive source code, modify, decompile, disassemble, or create derivative works of the Game or any online portion thereof, in whole or in part;


*Remove, disable or circumvent any proprietary notices or labels contained on or within the Game or any online portion thereof; or


*Export or re-export the Game or any copy or adaptation in violation of any applicable U.S. export restrictions or other laws or regulations.


This can be found here: www.bandainamcoent.com/DBX-EULA/


So technically the LibXenoVerse tools are already infringing on the EULA, so any modding to the game has already tossed it out the window.

We might be able to get by since there are over 100 mods available for the game already and technically turning it into a MMO is just a mod in itself.

Unfortunately CryptoDatabase is right. While HYPER consists of volunteers, integrating a digital currency might be seen as a commercial purpose.

KingArbin do you want to contact them directly and see what they say?

Maybe they will like all the free promotion and exposure that will come from a HYPER enabled server.

I'll contact them, but I might need a little help with doing the proposal letter to them. Btw don't want you to think I was ignoring you earlier, some guy driving a Semi Truck hit a power line up the road and my electric has been off for the last 4 hours, just came back on 15 min ago, felt like i was on the wrong side of a bbq in my house, lol
