I just bought some.

Didn't bet my house on it, but having to up my orders cos not getting them filled.

(I hope they sell me the right 'fork'  Cheesy )

Whatever the technical merits of this "shitcoin" Smiley it seems that, amazingly, most Icelanders don't spend 15 hours a day oggling threads on bitcointalk. There's already a few businesses starting to spring up who are accepting it. http://www.aurcoin.is/

Also, each day there is more press - especially out in the country. http://eyjan.pressan.is/frettir/2014/03/27/markadur-hefur-myndast-fyrir-auroracoin-haegt-ad-kaupa-notada-bila-og-kronur/

Maybe it'll crash again once all this FUD starts filtering through...or maybe it won't. All the same, must get in if you like the principle.

Forked or not, this guy just sold a car for Auroracoin and it's national news.

I suppose he'd better hope his coins are on the "right" chain  Wink

Standalone POS coins have many advantages over NXT - plus they far less resemble a bullshit hyip pyramid scheme

LoL

I'd like to know of a single crypto that doesn't resemble a "bulshit pyramid scheme" by those definitions.
7444  Other / Archival / Re: delete on: March 29, 2014, 02:58:15 AM
i really don't like this kind of coin , it faces to a country , not to the world .

It's called diversity.

auororacoin is flawed because $30,000,000USD of 'market cap' is being protected by less than 2 gigahash of video cards.

That problem isn't due to a "flaw" in the coin. It's due to not enough miners. One which is normally solved by it rising to the top of the profitability table:

A number of independent developers as well the developer assisting the Auroracoin Team Nite69 publicly stated the exploit is real. He voiced his somewhat frustration at the AUR dev for failing to act with plenty of time remaining.

~BCX~


So what ?
7447  Other / Archival / Re: delete on: March 29, 2014, 02:34:53 AM
if you don't address the issues now, "the project, the people behind it, their priorities, who it's trying to benefit..." is based on a sack of bullshit with holes in it. 

if the coin's fundamentally flawed, then i would recommend "the people behind it, their priorities, who it's trying to benefit..." switch to a cryptocurrency that is more competent.

Who says it's flawed ?

A ranting lunatic on a public forum that has about as much technical authority as BTC-e trollbox ? Even if he's right do you really think this is the way to sort things like this out ?

If you're a hammer then every problem looks like a nail. There are better ways to address this than what BCX is doing.
7448  Other / Archival / Re: delete on: March 29, 2014, 02:34:06 AM
Typical scumbag speculator.

~BCX~

Better get used to it because for some reason, no one attracts them like you do.
7449  Other / Archival / Re: delete on: March 29, 2014, 02:11:41 AM
Auroracoin being worthless is actually the BEST time to probe for weakness

Thats not the point.

The point is that the only way BCX knows how to do that is by throwing his toys out of the pram in a massive performance of public melodrama. He couldn't give a sh*t about the devs or the fortunes of the coin contrary to what people may believe. He's clueless about the nature of the project, the people behind it, their priorities, who it's trying to benefit or why and he isn't interested in finding out before taking great pleasure in detonating a landmine under their noses.

That's why I said

You are useful, but no more so than any other criminal
7450  Other / Archival / Re: delete on: March 29, 2014, 01:46:40 AM
this is fucking moronic.

if the exploit is not used publicly, someone will exploit it in secret if they can figure out a way to make money out of it.  it's better that we all know.

fix the fucking holes instead of burying your head in the sand pretending they don't exist.

test it until it fails.  failure is always a fucking option.

Agreed. Vandals and criminals fulfil an important role.

The mistake you're making is in thinking that BCX was 'just trying to help' when in fact this whole episode is more about his nose being out of joint that the devs didn't take his advice when he gave it. There will be plenty more clowns where BCX came from who don't need to make such a performance over it.
7451  Other / Archival / Re: delete on: March 29, 2014, 01:28:24 AM
They chose to ignore it.
~BCX~

And that was their perogative. You should have left it at that.
7452  Other / Archival / Re: delete on: March 29, 2014, 01:21:54 AM
oh, it's you again.  just yesterday you were claiming bcx singlehandedly crashed bitcoin in some paranoid delusion passed off as a thread.

you would benefit from your own advice more than anyone else. 

Namaste

That was before he knew what was really going on.
7453  Other / Archival / Re: delete on: March 29, 2014, 12:39:02 AM
BitcoinEXpress, if that's what you're really up to, don't you realise the hypocrisy ?

You're trying to engender integrity with corrupt methods. It's lesson A. It doesn't work. If you really want to help those guys, then let them know what you know.

If they don't take your advice then get the popcorn out and leave the rest to nature but don't turn yourself into a vandal.

7454  Other / Archival / Re: delete on: March 29, 2014, 12:25:09 AM
A bluff would make sense. Which would show an altruistic side to BCX efforts; a seemingly weird, and unnecessarily complex way to go about getting an exploit fixed, however, at least to me

If that's the case he's trying to be an "indiana Jones" of cryptos and failing miserably. An idiot who at worst is a criminal and at best an unguided missile.
7455  Other / Archival / Re: delete on: March 29, 2014, 12:15:57 AM
So if the miners don't care about the coin and the Air Dropees only care about cashing out and not participating.

~BCX~

For someone who thinks this project is a big scam, you don't half pay a lot of attention to it.

Are you trying to do a Litecoin bluff and rescue it or something ? It doesn't need your rescuing.
7456  Other / Archival / Re: delete on: March 29, 2014, 12:07:49 AM
miners don't care about the coin.

But you do so we can feel safe.
7457  Other / Archival / Re: delete on: March 28, 2014, 11:42:10 PM
Stop being a pussy. Say what you mean.
~BCX~

Can you read ?

You're a charlatan with too big an ego to help anyone.

An intelligent vandal who's too lazy to look for constructive solutions to the problems you see
7458  Other / Archival / Re: delete on: March 28, 2014, 11:35:59 PM
Wrong again, you're on a roll.

I provided very specific details...  Undecided

Keep digging.
7459  Other / Archival / Re: delete on: March 28, 2014, 11:33:46 PM
I'm not saying this is fact

Just as well, because it isn't.
7460  Other / Archival / Re: delete on: March 28, 2014, 11:19:03 PM
Amazing how BitcoinEXpress gets away with rebranding vandalism as a constructive exercise.

Yet feels at liberty to make baseless accessions of "scamming" at people who have pioneered one of the most significant innovations yet in the history of crypto currencies when their only "crime" was their wish to remain anonymous.

If I think my Parents don't secure their home properly at night and they don't take my advice, I don't go ransacking their house to prove my point.

Whatever BitcoinEXpress's talents, he's toast and deservedly so. Pondlife without a clue of what Icelandic society is about.

I lived in Iceland for 8 years and when I first saw the Auroracoin website I knew exactly why this initiative had been taken and that it was genuine. Who cares if the developers had the "opportunity" or not to scam it - it doesn't matter because there was much more at stake and that was clear to anyone with half a brain cell who knew anything about the history of Icelandic financial life, or who had experienced the workings of the class system in a very small country.

The central bank devalues the currency by up to 20% at a time whenever they feel like it. They've done that for 40 years so it's a no brainer that if a "Crypto" is around it's going to give them second thoughts because by devaluing the Krona, they're implicitly favourably revaluing the Aurora. The existence of an explicitly Icelandic crypto is of huge benefit to the society.

Make no mistake about it, I support the concept of *any* cryptocoin helping the population of Iceland

Do you fuck. You're a charlatan with too big an ego to help anyone.

An intelligent vandal who's too lazy to look for constructive solutions to the problems you see. It wasn't your role to be judge and jury of this project and if what you said above is true you would have given them the benefit of the doubt. You're basically a busybody who finds creativity in antagonism and destruction.

You are useful, but no more so than any other criminal.
