HYPERfuture and I are discussing the possibility of stopping the 500 000 HYPER MMO Development Fund I am managing in escrow from staking. While this means that after the bounty funds run out there will be no more HYPER to sponsor more games in the HYPER Incubator, it will lower HYPER inflation a little to help ensure HYPER remains valuable. It will also help HYPER become more decentralized faster.

Please provide feedback as we are deciding on how to proceed with this.

Looking forward to feedback guys.

Thanks for updating everyone psybits and yes we are considering setting up the main 500 K HYPER MMO Development Fund so that it does not stake, to lower inflation and help HYPER become decentralized more quickly. Please do let me know your thoughts on this!

Important update regarding Zandagort the dev is trying to get the game stable with 8000 planets (so we can have lots of players and worlds) and the dev is still performance testing this. We will be running an updated version of Zandagort that is a bit more slick than the version we are currently running. Also, testing for the HYPER integration will also be taking place during the next week! This doesn't mean it will definitely be launched in a week but I wanted to give you all an update.

The HYPER Whitepaper is coming along, but I am looking for feedback from the community regarding topics like staking the 500 K HYPER MMO Development Fund. If you have any ideas at all regarding how HYPER should manage its funds let me know! I'm looking to create a discussion here

Also it looks like there will be no Market Stabilization Fund.

Upon the release of the Whitepaper there will be the HYPER Incubator, the HYPER MMO Development Fund and the HYPER Bounty Fund. The HYPER MMO Development Fund may not be staking to help lower inflation. Need feedback on this idea and any other ideas welcomed before I finish the Whitepaper!

I think the HYPER MMo Fund should be staked so the funds can be used to sponsor even more HYPER game projects!

The number of HYPER coins in the fund is less important than the value of the coin. We need the price of each HYPER to be higher so the development fund will be worth more.

I agree that HYPER needs to be more valuable for us to reach our goals. That's why we are working on so many projects to bring more value to the HYPER ecosystem. Also anyone can earn HYPER for completing simple tasks here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=695339.0

Also watchtheskies yes, staking the MMO Fund would mean we have more funds to keep sponsoring new HYPER games and game servers indefinitely (or until we spent all the funds). But I am open to the idea of stopping the staking too and heading HYPER towards a more decentralized model more quickly. Looking for more feedback on both ideas!
