When will Beta be ready? Or can I join close-beta? I am excited to be part of the Hyper community. I have been tracking this posts since 2014 yet I dont have a Hyper wallet.
It will be ready soon. I have a huge list of people who are interested in testing, and I put you on the list. It's getting really close. The only other person helping me with the development through design is away in another country at the moment. I may be able to release a testing version of the web wallet for internal transactions shortly. Just have to finish up a few issues. There are actually two separate applications that work in conjuction with each other.

Thanks for being patient!
Great! Here's my personal email in case you need it,

I'm more interested in APIs to accept Hyper for web application. Any updates on APIs?
Why not just use normal wallet API?
There is nothing wrong with using the native wallet API via RPC. However, there are benefits to using the web wallet's API. Three reasons being better and easier usability, 0 txn fees when sending/receiving HYPER with other users, and obfuscation of external transactions. The API is in the timeline. I'll let you know more details as it gets started.
Also, the hypergg.com and simplehyper.info websites are currently down. I will put them back up with changes once the web wallet test version is ready which I hope will be ready within a month.
