A whitepaper would be nice and push it further than the vapourware Prime currently is. For me it's just a hype train that you can follow or not. Until provided with more insight on how it would work, or an implementation in the code don't bother with it.

As for the devs: both coding devs have apparently a full time paid job (translation software development, http://tshwanedje.com/about/ ), I still find it strange that people bought into the idea that they would work full time on NLG.

Hey Mike; you can act "meh" on bct but you wouldn't be holding if you didn't believe it'd be a success in the end 😉
On the other hand; I suppose it's parts of the game for many larger bagholden to extend your Wallet. That's OK.

See my comment above. People have recently offered me NLG for services... I declined because I already have too much of it (yes, that is possible). I'm not saying these things for buying more at a lower price, (read again: I have enough NLG). With the recent pump and dump I'd rather see a stable NLG price for a few months. That would be a signal for me to buy. I always do things targetted at long term.

A white paper is interesting though if delivery is on time as scheduled I couldn't care less about a white paper at this time due to it being released very soon. I understand it's more fun to make comments that make people fee less secure so you can scoop up more coins but ultimately it's not a big deal as long as they deliver. I doubt you don't agree. Sure; a white paper could be beneficial but it won't dictate success or not in the end pending proper releases.

Like I said: whitepaper or code implementation release would both be fine for me. I'm more interested in how they would achieve things that the whole crypto community hasn't been able to solve yet. Credit where it's due, but not on vapourware.

A whitepaper could also help other people to look at it before it is released. It is easy to miss errors or loop holes, which could be removed before actual code is in production. That things go wrong are shown quite often (even NLG hasn't got a clean track record in that respect). I'm an foss supporter, this is in line with the same principles as in the FOSS community.

We solved our problems... NLG is "still tweaking" it. Besides, recently we solved many problems DGB still has. As for the rest in development, our markets are reasonable healthy, in Iceland we have a lot going on, and more is coming up. And we have a foundation that keeps an open ledger on the remaining pre-mine (minus the airdrop and burned pre-mine), instead of being in possession of a single person that can be hit by a car, has to pay taxes (1,65% on the pre-mine in euros, box 3 of the Dutch income tax) and might have legal obligations to others where they could claim the pre-mine.

Our code might not be as "fancy" as NLG's code... but "fancy" doesn't make "your house in better order" by definition.

okay, whatever lets you live with yourself and sleep at night, scammer...

if you spent half the time developing your scam coin, as you do obsessing over gulden which you are incapable of letting go despite your constant mud slinging then maybe aurora would not be such a shitfest. if the gulden devs are as bad as you keep claiming then why is the coin so good, lets face the facts they are way better than you will ever be, and you know it, thats why you still own gulden and always will.

team cameltoe, still doing nothing but whining and scamming 3 years later, what a bunch of basic bitches

What? That you call the coin that I work on a scam coin is fine by me. Many uninformed people parrot others, but where did you get that I scam people? Please enlighten me who I scammed and how? I do my development on my coin in my spare time (I don't get paid for it), I don't expect anything from any one, all I want is that it becomes successful. I'm also not part of Criptoe, as far as I know only one member in our dev team is part of Criptoe. All other members are not.

The reason I still own Gulden has nothing to do with the NLG dev team or their choices, but more that I want NLG to succeed as well as the coin I participate in development. Dumping my whole stash on the market would damage NLG too much, which it and its legitimate users IMHO would not deserve.

Back on-topic:
As far as Prime, we've only heard a fancy name and some vague claims of what it will be. That's why I call it vapourware. I've put a lot of effort in NLG in the past and I think people deserve to hear as many opinions regarding this as possible (to make a good judgement on the topic question). It might not seem like that, but I'm trying to be constructive here, not whining. But you know what... I let you guys to it... got better things to do than spend my time on trolls.

yep, there is absolutely no way that a software development company that lists 'custom software development' as one of the things that they do would take on a project like this where they get paid to do custom software development, no way at all.
by the way who said the second developer is full time?

Nowhere it was mentioned they hired the company to do their development, why would they hide this fact if that's really true? They have hired external developers/companies in the past to do development.

also don't you think it is a bit rich talking about vaporware when you are the developer of one of the largest scam coins that has delivered nothing in almost a year, just a cheap copy of digibyte that a kid could have done in a day? when is team cameltoe going to deliver something? gulden team has delivered a bunch, get your own house in order before you come here with your bullshit.

or both bitcoins will be the losers..

^This... I am/was a supporter of Bitcoin since it was 2 weeks old... but the issues rising with bitcoin in the past two years are not being handled... instead a lot of development is spend in "solutions" that make bitcoin less attractive to use it in the long term. The only reason that I still have bitcoins is that you more or less need it for trading many alts. Which makes these alts also vulnerable to the price whims you see with Bitcoin, due to jokes like BU and alike.

Tsja... Rutte I... 65 blijft 65 in campagne en nog geen uur na de uitslag was het "breekpunt" alweer van tafel... Geert wilde regeren, maar zoals je al juist opmerkt, zonder verantwoordelijkheid... Daarnaast ook geheel in lijn met de stemgeschiedenis van de PVV in de tweede kamer afgelopen jaren. De VVD kan de zetels van de PVV gewoon bij zichzelf erbij tellen. Hoeven ze nog niet eens in een coalitie/gedoogconstructie samen te werken.

De VVD doet ten minste nog een beetje moeite om hun ideeën op papier te zetten. Echter hun wens van VVD tegen de PVV in de campagnetijd is er gelukkig niet gekomen.

Ik zag afgelopen week ook al een Wilderscoin langskomen. Het nut van dergelijke coins snap ik ook niet echt.

Betreffende op Geert stemmen... nee, ik heb liever een partij die iets verder komt in de plannen dan een A4-tje (al kan ik begrijpen dat je ook niet meer te melden hebt als "de islam" het probleem is en minder "de islam" de oplossing is).
368  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Geert Wilders Coin (GWC) POS / POW - Set the Dutch Free New on: March 13, 2017, 07:28:20 PM
WildersCoins sole purpose is to raise awareness of crab people! Crabpeople (cancer hominum), is a species that are forced to live underground by modern society. Crabpeople, or CB's are a technologically advanced society, they use humanoid robots that are controlled by pilot CBs to blend into the human world.

CBs hope that one day they can take over the surface Earth by weakening the human species and turning them into metrosecual's.

Lol what?


South park reference.

I checked the 3 day volume chart on https://isx.is/ and the volume for last 3 days was even slightly more now than before the big election in October. Again they aren't big numbers but it looks promising that people are utilizing the exchange and buying more auroracoin. I think people expected the pirate party to do better however if the pirate party got one seat or 30 I like the prospects of AUR.

There is increased liquidity on ISX compared to November. It is worthwhile to trade there now. That explains the volume.
370  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: - AURORACOIN - on: March 13, 2017, 09:24:42 AM
ISK is also very volatile. You could easily loose more than 20% if not selling now. When bought in 2008 post-crash you could have a nice profit now... even with 20% loss.

It seems most currency controls will be lifted on coming Tuesday:

I just bought ice cream and coffee at http://joylato.is/ with my Auroracoin.



Progress

Yes, it is progress.

But shouldn't the sticker in the window be in Icelandic first, with English as a second language?

After all, AUR is meant to be Iceland's national cryptocurrency!

The tourism industry is increasing a LOT in Iceland. It is also a great way to get most of the AUR moved back to Iceland. For tourists it should become more cheaper to buy AUR than ISK (in respect to transaction fees) and easier to carry. And then most Icelandic people speak English good enough to understand it.

How is the anonimity of this coin ?

Same as bitcoin, litecoin, Digibyte. All transactions are recorded in the blockchain and can be tracked.
374  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: - AURORACOIN - on: March 10, 2017, 09:39:06 AM
Are there any plans on doing some basic wallet improvements?

The wallet takes like 10 minutes to start on a dualcore and writes ~700 MB of data in the debug.log each time it does.

This is one of the slowest wallet I have ever encountered.

The latest wallet, released a few days ago, should prevent that. https://github.com/aurarad/Auroracoin/releases

Awesome, thanks.

The windows wallet link in OP points to the previous wallet.

I've notified the team member responsible for that, thanks.

I have just heard a rumor that Aube roracoin will a digital currency for Iceland in the future? I just want to know if it is true or false?
it seems that Price is quite high after this rumor releasing. Maybe I'm wrong.

Please read the OP. It contains most of the info you want.

I know it's off-topic, but I had to share.

ISX had more than 1000 volume for the first day in months.18 btc of buy orders on bittrex is also pretty good. Auroracoin is back!

You're exaggerating quite a bit, I think. I can't spot anything out of the ordinary in the markets. Yes, there's a volume spike on the ISK exchange, which is very positive. But it's not a reason for too much excitement in my opinion.

Just keep accumulating if you believe in the idea.


I know its not reason for too much excitement for now but ISX exchange on most days had less than a 10 dollar volume so I was pleased to see that. I am a substantial holder and do believe in the idea. I think it has good upside potential especially if Iceland decided auroracoin was a good alternative to the krona. My "auroracoin is back" comment should be reserved when auroracoin breaks through the 10 million market cap barrier.

The orders at ISX generated also a bit of joy on my side. It has improved the order books considerably (there was a huge gap between buy and sell there). For merchant acceptance in Iceland it is good to have small trading gaps there, as it reduces their risk for conversion. As for "Auroracoin is back"... it never went away, the dev team and foundation have been just very busy in the past few months. I hope we can show some of these developments soon. The new wallet release is a first step towards that.
379  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Is Gulden a good investment? on: March 04, 2017, 09:00:52 AM
I think that it has potential to repeat a huge pump, especially, if we take into account  the climate of the upcoming elections in Holland. Remember, for example, Aurora coin and elections in Iceland. 

1) Elections won't affect NLG, the parties most likely to get into control are the same established parties as in the last decade.
2) Comparing to the situation with AUR... this is like comparing apples to elephants.
3) I'm currently not touching NLG with a 5 foot pole...
4) ... which brings me to market psychology... what's going on here. Not traders, manipulators, or otherwise... just the lack of people willing to buy.
5) Not going up anytime soon.

Deep down we all know this is one of the only real projects. Which is why I know you and many others are still invested.

Correct, but the above is also about me being realistic about the market. The elections might give a short term boost, but not structural recovery. The first thing that the NLG market needs now is consolidation. I see there is a NLG-EUR market in the making... IMHO currently the best development that NLG needs (besides merchant acceptance of course).
