AURORACOIN - Empowering Financial Freedom

[ofeefee]

Will the price be back over 30k next week?

I think AUR is dead again.

Lol.

A little endurance can go a long way, my friend.

Agree with skar, aur hasn't even begun, there is nothing new and activity has increased.  Can you think what happens when they actually make good on the plans.  Can you wait, if not then maybe sell, see how this ends will see who the winners are.

@ Danslip and y2cafuse
may i ask you guys to post your addresses when claiming how many coins you have because you lack credibility when you just shoot off numbers like you're the richest people in auroracoin world.

who uses single addresses?

I do, why wouldmt you? 

privacy? protection against weak rng in ecdsa signatures?

If you just do it to break up different uses that's one thing but not trusting it in one address.  You do know that your wallet doesn't hold coins right?  Export the private key and you can always retrieve or send coins at will, even if your wallet is dead.

No, I'm not using multiple addresses for bookkeeping purposes. For bookkeeping purposes I use books.

But yes, I agree: AUR would benefit from HD wallets for backup simplicity.

Ouch on the weak signatures.  That's a scary idea that will kill crypto, best not speak of that!

Weak rng is the culprit and there's rfc6979 to mitigate the problem without protocol change. Unless you use that, you should carefully check entropy of your rng (hard, I know) when reusing addresses... or just not reuse addresses and bite the bullet and make frequent-enough backups of your wallet.dat

Cryptos is run on emotion and AUR is a coin with lots of emotion which is great for trading and making good gains. You add a new feature to a coin called "Globalcoin" and nothing will happen, you add the same feature 1 year later on AUR and AUR will get a far bigger pump in price. Also AUR has big btc backers like Kenchanyu.

I try to follow you guys, but don't get what you talking about . Can one of you explain me in a noob langage what is ''rng'' and what it mean in regard to security ?

Thanks !

RNG = random number generator.

If you have a weak one (predictable to an extent) like has happened in some android phones, an attacker can, just by looking at your signatures on the blockchain (when you make a transaction) figure out the private key of the address you're sending from. If you send money to that address again, it'll be gone within seconds because the attacker has your key.

I don't want to sound too alarmist, though. Most wallets seem to use good random sources these days. For me, address reuse is mainly a privacy concern.

cant believe this scam coin is still going

There's a lot of things I can't believe:

and lastly,




Don't worry, we'll message you when there is a faucet available, so you can get your free coins by doing nothing but complaining about the faucet and calling things a scam.

Doesn't matter if it's a scam or not mate. People are still trading the coin and there has been nice swings in price to make 15-30% btc profit on some days.

[soltantgris]

It matter to me. And for a lot of people. Trading a coin is something, but working toward a positive goal is something too. Both are not contradictory imo - and even if it's true that traders can profit from a bad coin, this is much safer and positive to trade a coin with such a great purpose !

Enjoy !

What you guys think about Iceland Pirate Party ?


http://auroraspjall.is/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=214&p=926#p926

[TheSignsGuy]

I believe that the ideology behind the Pirate Party goes hand in hand with cryptocurrency.

Auroracoin and the Icelandic Pirate Party make sense together.

Edit: Iceland's Pirate Party?

[molecular]

Is there some oficial site for development of new wallet? Any news?
Hope it's not this one: http://auroracoin.is/EN/index.php/the-plan/

how about offering help instead of demanding and criticising?

[baldur odinson]

the plan is to lobby government to adopt auroracoin, this is an obvious target for the foundation

False.

The plan is by no mean to ask gouvernement anything, and I chat almost everyday with the 3 leaders of the Foundation.

[Bimmerhead]

Not a chance. What government would want the accountability and responsibility that goes with operating in a non-inflating currency environment?

This has never been talked about within the foundation. As a member of the foundation i am asking you to please change your profile name because of confusion it can bring. All members of foundation and dev team as well as official pr person for Auroracoin are stated in the OP.

A government with the pirate party in power, elections are next year, does the foundation have a plan for lobbying the pirate party to endorse auroracoin?

Elections are 2017, there are no plans for lobbying . Our mission is educate, advertise and get a dialog/adoption going within the nation. Again why are you using this profile username?

[jnada]

Nice to see that Aurora revived some how, obviously burning premine was a significant act.
Are there still plans to change algo to SHA256?


BTW, I lost few thousands AUR on mintpal exchange. Just read news that some people started sending back alt funds ie DarkCoin, Karma, Monero.

Did anyone contacted with Aurora Foundation regarding this matter?

May offer some reward for recovering my coins.
