Will the coin retain its name and ticker? I reckon this might be confusing for a little while after the transition.
The name and the ticker will stay the same.
Right, everything except for the specifications will remain the same.
An update on the new wallet, we have tried and tested about 4 wallets so far but have been running into problems with the staking part. We ended up deciding to try the existing HYPER code base and just modify its specifications and see how it goes.
