HYP has one of the most secure PoS networks and the difficulty has been consistently above 1 the last few days.
New record established: diff reached an ATH of 1.97

Some things to add to the wikia, please (I'm busy on other things that cannot be done by other than me - the more people to edit the wikia, the better - many thanks for those who already do):
the FAQJust an orphan. You and somebody else submitted the same block at about the same time. They won. It just reverts to staking, nothing lost. It happens a lot with all POS coins.
With the increase of difficulty, popularity, and weight does the recommended minimum block size still hold? Do you guys have any particular strategy? I have 12 inputs of 250 HYP with an age of around 21 now and considering biting the bullet and combining them now...
https://bit.ly/hypsizeList mode shows each block, tree mode shows each address. I never use tree, don't even see it's purpose, but that's me.
Tree mode only makes sense if you have several addresses in you wallet. It helps monitoring each address independantly. Could be
the FAQ too or a section devoted to coin control (we don't have one yet!)
Max stake maturity is thirty days. After that it gains no further weight, but will keep trying to stake and should eventually do it. I have staked ONE coin. Took bloody forever, but I wanted to see if it worked. It went way past the gain.
What happens after 30 days? is a recurring question worth an answer in the FAQ
Best of luck, welcome to the community, and if you find good answers, please share!
And add them to the wikia

I always thought u are supposed to make new addresses for every incoming transaction-- for privacy reasons?
If you want privacy, use
Monero (buy them on the
XMR/HYP market as part of your
monthly selling of stake, for instance). Anything else is just an invitation to examination (blockchain transparency, anyone?). Maybe one day HYP will have Monero-like privacy, but I am very well positionned to tell to not hold your breath on it

Personally, I wouldn't want to see automatic coin control added.
[...]
Honestly though, consider not adding automatic coin control - you'll take away what I see as a big part of HYP's addictiveness.
I think it is GREAT IDEA!!!
I also support this idea.
I do not believe
barrier to entry is a good thing for a coin that want to be popular. Automatic coin control will probably leave room for fine-tuning any way, the same
cars have manual transmission or even sport mode, whilst other have automatic transmission. Then, who's right on cars? Everyone is. Different audiences and preventing one audience to access the coin is not my vision for HyperStake. Not everyone wants to be addicted - I am, and I'm fine with it but other people just want it to work well, without this feeling of losing money because they don't understand coin cointrol.
Plus, I tend to think there would be a bit less day-traders if coin controlling was not only automatic, but even encouraged with a potential stake displayed right in the wallet's main window, an "executive summary" ('you have X HYP at the moment - in around 20 days, you should have Y HYP if you leave your wallet open most of the time").
