The History

The TL;DR (history)

Hyper Café is an entity created by Hyperbatch for a world of coffee lovers or anyone embracing coffee ethos. Hyper Café was initially designed to be a virtual alliance leveraging existing social media platforms such as Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook group, etc. to bring specialty coffee lovers worldwide on board to share their coffee-tasting experiences, transfer brewing knowledge and also reduce the time and effort they have to spend hunting for a good cup of coffee during their travels or when they first relocate to new cities. As the team elaborated on this idea, we found it extremely difficult to rely on Hyperbatch alone to achieve this ambitious goal on a scale and add value to coffee lovers across the world, especially in places Hyperbatch has a limited presence.

In 2021, we started to know about the amazing technologies behind non-fungible tokens, aka NFTs; and fungible tokens, such as Ether on Ethereum and ADA on Cardano. That was a lightbulb moment for all of us and we found the perfect home for Hyper Café, and that was also the moment we see vividly what the architecture of Hyper Café should look like.

The Current Status

Hyper Café is in the making slowly and steadily. After Hyperbatch Barista Club (HBBC) NFT is minted out, HBBC NFT staking will be enabled. HBBC can then be staked to generate $HBEAN. $HBEAN is a tokenized coffee bean and it always remains a 1:1 redemption ratio at Hyper Café.
