Everything's okay and it's going the way it's supposed to. In the last few months the difficulty has increased and is quite high, so it takes longer until the coins stake. But it's not a bad thing. It just means the network is strong. Yes, FreiExchange ist the only full working exchange right now. But the market is not big and we need more support from the HBN community there. It is easy to crash the price there, unfortunately. HoboNickels is also listet at btcpop.co, but there the withdrawal options is not working at the moment.
