It's been a while since I tuned in here; how are things looking?
Seems like the lessons learned over time would suggest that porting auroracoin to a token on a more robust network (eventually ethereum, perhaps) is the only way to ensure security. Does anyone know if core developers have made any statements regarding a long-term solution for a low-hashrate network?
Also, I still have auroracoin.com, @CoinAurora, and facebook.com/auroracoins if anyone active on the project is looking to take them over. I tried to connect with folks a while ago when I stopped following the project actively but no one got in touch. If you're interested, drop me a line.
Hey CoinHeavy, welcome back! There's definitely awesome development on it's way regarding the network. Can't disclose details yet, but it's gonna be some pretty good news! Didn't know (or remember) you own auroracoin.com, but please drop me a PM and we can discuss it for sure.

Although it has been speculated on many times that Cryptsy would go Gox (for years now), they are still here and seem to keep providing their service. The trouble, however is that the deposits and withdrawals seem to get harder and harder all the time. So yes, I would also advise to take caution with Cryptsy for now and not leave more than 1BTC in value on there. Bittrex.com is picking up volume fast now, a good alternative if you ask me!

This is criminal - and Crypsy are actually gaming the system to keep slow down withdraw ''run to the bank'' process, while increasing a LOT their fee. LTEX is polite, he's an official member of AUR - and don't want to bash in public Cryptsy, and I understand him. Still, Cryptsy behavior is criminal, nothing less. Let's move on. Bittrex is pretty solid exchange.

Actually, the Auroracoin foundation should really consider removing cryptsy as an exchange possibility for Auroracoin from the OP. I can imagine the Auroracoin foundation doesn't want to be affiliated with cryptsy and they also don't want their supporters being scammed by an exchange.
edit: Right now I checked how my BTCD withdrawel from cryptsy was doing. Cryptsy was offline with this message; Error code 20 The proxy failed to connect to the web server, due to TCP connection timeout.
This BTCD withdrawel I am talking about was from 36 hours ago. 6 hours ago it was still pending, as usual. Of course I send a mail to complain ( I prolly send them 50 mails the last months) and of course I got the usual answer; " We would like to acknowledge that we have received your request and a ticket has been created with Ticket ID - 225667. A support representative will be reviewing your request and will send you a personal response.(usually within 24 hours)." So, tomorrow, they will send me a message that they escalated the request to a higher level and after that you will never hear from them again. Last month I had 2 DGB withdrawels were they send 80% of my request, but deducted the whole amount from my balance, never got an answer. The last 2 months I had over 20 withdrawels were they only send halve of the amount, but still took the 0,5% fee over the amount I requested to withdraw, so they took 1% fee actually. Then they had the 3 tickets for free withdrawels. The first 2 I lost because they let my withdrawels pending for 4 days and finally, after I send them a couple mails, put the coins back to my cryptsy balance ( now I was really lucky, because they didn't make me pay for a 96 hours lasting pending). But of course the free withdrawels were gone, all though I didn't use them. Do I have to go on? Or is this enough to get cryptsy removed from the OP?

Hi Ontopicplease, I fully understand your frustration and I actually agree with you 100%. Lately Cryptsy has been a pain to traders and they are slowly disqualifying themselves with all these delays. On the other hand Solantgris is right that I want to refrain from harsh statements since we also have to maintain certain distance as developers. Nevertheless I will add a warning to the OP that many members have trouble in withdrawals from Cryptsy. I personally had the same challenges as you guys and what helped for me is to join the trollbox and address your issue with the OP's online. They managed to release my funds on the fly. Mails somehow don't work that well.

If you open a support ticket using the form on the page and fill out all the forms, support usually react very quickly lately. Requests for canceling pending withdrawals (which sadly was necessary rather often) usually worked in under an hour, for example. I agree there should be a warning (without implying anything further about the state of cryptsy) in OP.

As far as I remember the "free withdrawal tickets" are a gift from Cryptsy (Every other exchange just charges withdrawals). Normal withdrawal rates are calculated with what is being paid out. In your example it would be the "first consult would be free", but except having a 3h consult, the lawyer has other things to attend to and terminates the consult after 1.5 h.

Right now on cryptsy there are no open sell orders, even if "AUR depth" is displaying sell orders pending. So...

According to their chat, other coins seem to have such problem as well (so not sure if there is really problem or just no sell orders). My guess was always that the depth chart is buffered (it always lags). See how/if it catches up.

Any of you guys have a good idea what to call Auroracoin fractions?
There is a good reason why people were quick to give Bitcoin fractions some names like bitcent, millibit, microbit and satoshi. Would be great to hear some suggestions for this. Something that you think might work for Icelandic people as well.
