soo... anybody in Iceland knows this coin ?

10% of the Icelandic population took the effort of claiming in 2014-2015

"10% of the icelandic "social security numbers" (kennitalia?) we're used to claim coins" would probably be closer to the truth.

I don't mean to FUD about possible (likely) shenanigans with the airdrop process or even accuse anyone, but you have to account at least for the fact that probably a lot of Icelanders claimed coins for their friends and relatives.

10% is insanely high, I just don't believe it unless it's supported with some proof or at least indications. Before the first airdrop my hope was that 1% would claim their coins.

The more interesting question I have is: how many Icelanders (or internationals, doesn't make much difference) HODL any AUR?

If you ask people here if they know cryptocoins they all know about Auroracoin.

Your sample might  be biased.

EDIT: Please don't take this as an attack or anything of that sort. I'm just trying to avoid expectations being too high.

There are only about 335,000 residents in the entire country and 10% of that is 33,500 not so far fetched after all.

Birgitta the captain of the Pirate party has been summoned to the president of Iceland and will probably get the opportunity to create a coalition government.

And she got it

Birgitta leading the charge would be an insanely good news.  I won't get into details, but we know for a fact that she is fully supporting cryptos and auroracoin.

Looking forward to it - but If my understanding is good, there is little chance to get a coalition out of it - water and fire don't mess well.

You just made my day 

(it should be "don't mix well"; the opposite, mixing them, indeed would give a mess  )

Haha well my english skills need some love

You nailed it !

What is the best pool to mine auroracoin?

I am a little disappointed if 10% of the country own the coin and the marketcap is still this low, doesn't leave much hope for a major price increase when you exclude children and older citizens.  
The marketing of this coin is good but the development needs to improve, why not copy what Gulden have done and with marketing you will beat them.

What's wrong with development? What do you mean? Technical development? In my view all is fine on that front.

[BioMike]

We're not here to beat Gulden, we're here to get Iceland using Auroracoin.

Lots of things have been done last year, not all mentioned here (and some that can't be disclosed). One of the most important things was fixing the blockchain by going multi-algo, things have been running very smooth since then. The summer holiday smashed a large hole in the development process, but last few weeks things are speeding up again.

As for the price, it is higher then before the new dev team started.

Multi-Algo is another algo any monkey can do. Lots of coins with multi-algo, you need innovation to complement the marketing AUR has. I don't understand why this is hard for coins to grasp!! No coin has both good development and marketing besides bitcoin.

Every now and then the coin hits the largest newspapers in Iceland, last was connected to the vice documentary film http://motherboard.vice.com/read/auroracoin


Other recent news coverage is connected to the isx.is Icelandic exchange opening.

If you ask people here if they know cryptocoins they all know about Auroracoin.

BTC is the basis of all crypto, none of the other brings nothing more

Our goal isn't to be creatively innovative and cutting edge.  Our development focus is a strong network backbone, built upon an even stronger blockchain.  We're not catering to crypto-nerds that know everything about crypto and are looking for the next best thing.  We're catering to Icelandic grandparents, shop keepers, normal Joes and Janes.  We don't need to wow anyone, mate.  We need to gain confidence in the technology, and not falter in delivering solutions that fulfill daily transaction needs.

We'll continue on our path.

I feel like guys are missing auroracoins geopolitical potential.
Crypto currency was designed to disrupt geo politics not to compete with fin tech.
Political elite in iceland are invested in crypto currency in several ways with Auroracoin as a player amongst other prodcuts like bitcoin and ethereum which is mined heavily in iceland.
Fintech gave us ethereum. Crypto currency gave us bitxoin and auroracoin the latter which broke a world record in its first month by gaining a market cap of several hundred million dollars in a matter of WEEKS!

I got a kick out of that, too.

We have no interest in creating additional translations for the wallet at this time.  If we do decide to add translations at some point, we will let the community know.

Steve Jobs had a similar attitude.

y u put your name after every message? people can tell who you are mate

y u ask this? Why is your name so similar to his?

y u put your name after every message? people can tell who you are mate

Force of habit.  I do a lot of email correspondence at work, so I typically sign my emails, even if they are quick messages back and forth.

I want to reach out to all my brothers and sisters in iceland today who are very Alone this Christmas Bitcoin Bull Run. The whole world is enjoying the fruit's of bitcoin but your leaders have denied you this simple pleasure.

alts are down across the board cause of bitcoin insane rally. It's time to buy the alts that truly have value. AUR is among them for me.

EDIT: also: noone has denied Icelanders anything and I doubt anyone in Iceland is purely in AUR with no BTC on hodl. That'd be "too many eggs in one basket".

Gulden is just a SCAM.
They are dumping the Premine very hard and also use money of the community to setup a commerciel business like Nocks.
All those people investing in it will earn nothing. (only early adopters)
Then they need shares and rent mining also payed by the community.
Only 4 people are laughing at the moment al NLG.
