Listen up guys!  This is the idea that will take HYP to the next level!

Ok, well, I was thinking there are alot of high PoS coins out there we all love.  HYP, CAP, HBN, TRK, TEK (you are kinda the red-headed stepchild TEK, but still worth a mention), and CLAM should be thrown into this mix now as well (dirt cheap at polo right now, hint hint).

But man, it sucks all these coins are off on there own blockchains.  Little crypto islands unable to communicate or work together.  If only there were a way to link all these beloved coins into one network.  Like a hyper network of coins, a HYPERnet if you will.  I'm not sure of all the logistics or how it would work.  It would take a lot of time and work by presstab.  But, if we could raise say 2500 BTC or so through a sale of tokens used to link these coins together, that should be enough funding to make this happen.

BLOCKnet?  Never heard of it?  Is it a big deal?  Looks like a scam to me.

I just thought this up while taking a shit this morning.

Haha, funny

Blocknet is ridiculous. The devs get 25,000 BTC from the IPO...

Ok, it's like the HYPERnet tokens are used to balance out the inflation of all the currencies.  HYP is the highest PoS percentage so it is at the head.  TRK is HYP's mother so out of respect, it gets a legacy place at the head as well.  Excess coins are converted to HYPERnet tokens and passed down the line of HYPERlinks between the coins to balance the PoS percentages.  TEK is at the end.  It will bloat up with loads of excessive stakes in the form of HYPERnet tokens.  TEK is easily recognizable by the red hair I have drawn on it, and it's brown because it is like the end of the coin centipede, so it will be eating and absorbing the waste from the other coins.

Let me know if you need me to convert this diagram to PDF format before you pass it around to investors.  You can all see the clear copyright on the diagram though right?  Ok, just checking because if this is stolen from me I will be suing.  I suppose a Jr. member account with the username ILoveBigBlackCocks is as trustworthy as anyone to hold onto the 2500 BTC, so I'll begin collecting investments immediately.




Oh David, I'm just having fun with this silly troll account for one more day before I stop using it.  Don't take anything I am saying seriously.  And feel free to delete these posts CrazyLoaf if I am shitting up the thread with my nonsense too much.

I do have good real ideas for HYP.  I suppose it's time to crack open my old Sr. bitcointalk account before getting into them though.

Say farewell to ILoveBigBlackCocks, he is moving onto other projects.

Hi fellow HYPsters! 

You probably have all interacted with me at some point in IRC, seeing as that's the place where I'm most present. Though I "joined this party" late, I am having a blast, and just wish I had found about HYP sooner!

I'd like to volunteer for non-technical contributions as that is what suits my profile after all. I don't think that I'd have the time to take on a large responsibility, but I could help a community manager offloading some of his tasks now and then, and be a HYP evangelist in general (helping out new users, driving activity on reddit, etc).
I can also do localization of any documentation or HYP materials to Portuguese, as that is my native language.

Sidenote: One important facet of driving so many initiatives forward, is to ensure that those "doing the work" and creating value are properly rewarded, but whenever possible, that they are rewarded in a way that makes them stakeholders - further strengthening the bond to HYP and ensuring longevity for whichever initiative they take on. Accepting crappy work for a quick buck is not the way to go (I hear that bounties sometimes have this effect). Just food for thought...

I've marked this thread for notifications so that I'll spot any chance to participate, but please feel free to PM me with any collaborative opportunity. Loving the idea of a Hippo mascot! 

That is a good example of the sort of site we need; just geared for HYP though

I vote no.

The problem with merge minting is that those other coins have little reason to be merge minted. They are nowhere near the point where demand for stake blocks would be better met by combining minting "hash" power. The reason multipool minting works for HYP is the very conservative 1k HYP stake block max reward. Since some people are already using 4k HYP blocks to stake quicker, and in some cases "giving up" stake since they have age/rewards beyond the block max, HYP *could* get to the point where you need 5k, 10k, or even 15k HYP, if the difficulty is raised high enough, to efficiently hit the 1k HYP reward.
