HyperNet Overview.png

The HyperNet Relay is a raffling system where players can both host and take part in a new method of selling items via raffle tickets called "HyperNodes".

Players can sell most items, including those that normally cannot be sold, separate from the market. The goal of the system was to offer capsuleers a means of selling more rare and expensive items with the chance of a higher turnover, thus stimulating the economy. Unlike trading and contracts, this isn't a guarantee, and unlike auctions, participants do not get their money back if they lose.

Basic features

The HyperNet Relay is an in-game raffle interface where players can put up single items and sell HyperNodes (or tickets) where a holder of such HyperNodes will try their luck against each other for a chance to win the item.

The HyperNet Relay interface is found in the Neocom under the "Finance" category.

Creating a HyperNet raffle

An example of creating a HyperNet raffle

The item you want to raffle must be a single item, unstacked, and in an NPC station.

Hosting a raffle will require HyperCores, which can be purchased with PLEX in the New Eden Store, or traded with ISK via the Regional Market. The amount required will depend on the Total Cost of the item, which is set by the host.

Simply drag an item into the slot on the Create tab, move your HyperCores into their slot in the lower-left, and input the Total Cost & Number of HyperNodes (tickets). Details about the offer will be displayed, such as the Payout you will receive (this does not take into account the cost of HyperCores) and the HyperNode Price. You can also see details about prior HyperNet offers completed with the selected item.

HyperNet offers will last for a maximum of 3 days. If all the tickets are purchased, the host will receive all of the ISK from the tickets, minus a 5% tax. Entrants will be able to interact with the offer again to see who won.

If not all tickets are sold, the offer is canceled - the host will get the item back, and entrants will have their ISK refunded. The HyperCores used to setup the offer are not refunded.

Participating in a HyperNet raffle

Synchronizing with a completed HyperNet raffle

Any item being raffled on the HyperNet Relay will show as a HyperNet Offer. The HyperNodes can be purchased either individually or in bulk order. Once all of the HyperNodes for the given offer have been purchased, a HyperNode will be selected at random through a lottery style animation. The item claimed will be placed in the capsuleers hangar where the offer originated.

If not all HyperNodes were sold in time, the offer is canceled. All ISK that was used to purchase HyperNodes will be returned to the respective capsuleers.
