[ANN][AUR] Auroracoin - a cryptocurrency for Iceland

[bitcoinwonders010]

While you all pat each other's backs, there are a 15 BTC buy wall, and a 5 BTC buy wall on Cryptsy. We just doubled, and still going strong. Lol.

What exactly does that mean? Price going up, down?

it means it is easily manipulated for pumpers.  5btc or 15btc is not much at all for a person to manipulate.  that is what the beauty is with bitcoin, it is hard for somebody to move because the volume is just soooo large, like 150,000 coins a day.  the same will apply to NEM after the sell off on day one, the volume and dispersal of the coin will reflect the true market value.

when is NEM launch date

I think Ekrona will be second Aurora coin for Scandinavian people.

I would like to hear from the bagholders who bought in at $90. Some sad stories for those guys.

I was a bag holder when Bitcoin dropped back from $230 to $80 mid april last year. AND MAN DO I LIKE STILL HOLDING THAT BAG!!!

Here's another great p2pool for you guys! (Actually for me as well :-) I'm mining on it too)

Enjoy! It's a custom design, running on a powerful and quick cloud-server with DDOS protection. Give it a try.

its unlikely able to distribute the coins to 330,000 people all that fast,

so all this talk about the price dropping alot is a load of crap.

It won't happen, because the coins won't go out to that many people all at once.

Think about it.

Dude wants to verify every person, prior to sending them some coins,

and VERIFICATION TAKES TIME, so it ain't going to happen all that fast.

330,000 is a big number

Price may go up, because of various factors that we are not fully aware of as yet.(if 1% of those people like the coin, they may start to buy/sell it as a hobby, and that would be 3,300 people whose favorite coin is auroracoin.
But if 10% of the people do that, then that is 33,000)

33,000 people who have a hobby of buying auroracoin. That would do lots for the coin. And then there is the rest of the crypto community.

But apparently the creator of this coin wants 330,000 people who use it regularly for buying/selling as if to replace the current government issued currency.
Well, need I say more? 330,000 isn't that as big or bigger than bitcoin if that happens? I don't know how many people are regular bitcoin enthusiasts though

The Airdrop is probably going to happen at a much slower pace than people have been imagining in this thread.

AUR is extremly volatile atm. time to buy more coins

must be desperate to go around other coins forums promoting NEM. I guess the future of NEM is highly uncertain and it needs a huge word of mouth as the product ain't speaking for itself

dude wants to verify and over 1000 chinese hackers will be trying their best to beat the verification system, maybe lots of people on this thread too. :-)

sorry    I get a little over excited sometimes. hahaha

[dspair]

Of course there is not many coins out there, devs own 99% of them.

[Wingel]

I was wondering how the airdrop will actually work? yeah trough national id, but is it live collection, some kind of form at internet or what ? If they dont have database from all people with accepted national id and its image scan, its pretty easy to manipulate...

[LTEX]

These spammers are chosing to make things sound negative too much.


balduro?

consider locking this thread,

and starting a new AURORACOIN MAIN THREAD,

but this time, make sure its a

SELF-MODERATED THREAD,

and that way, you would be able to delete all this spam from these spammers
(too much negative spam on this thread might be making people panic sell too much; and until you can instill more confidence in the investors, we don't need their negativity, which is also price manipulation from some of them as well. some of them want to buy in low again, and then try and sell much higher later on again, and that also means that some investors are losing too much, and you don't want your investors losing lots of money like that either)

But please keep this one live as well, I'm planning to make a list of all the popcorn eating screechers and their quotes to send them all a personal haha when our efforts have proven them wrong

I brought it up to him by total chance. And that's why it might be really big, too many stakeholders involved. So it's going to have some popularity.

By the way, balduro says its an AIR-DROP ( I was thinking this was just a saying, that likely its not an actual air-drop )

So, then I thought that maybe an actual air drop might be possible, but it still doesn't really guarantee that the coins will go to each person in iceland, because of

4- the fact that the people who find the air-drop are then intercessors, so it would have to make it past the intercessors who find the air-drop, before those coins would get into the hands of each person in iceland.

I don't see why he can't just mail paper wallets to everyones house with details on what it is and how to claim, that would be the most logical way to go about this to reach entire population

[arxaon]

what are happening with AU cOIN==? dump? or real market tendence ?

[Adibandi]

How long is fucking take for this shit to get confirmed. Mined yesterday on multipool and its still unconfirmed wtf ?

Same here on same pool, I just stopped mine AUR.... and also my wallet is not sync....

Confirms are moving slowly because the network is. Gap between the current and previous block was almost 5 hours... and so far it's been another 80 minutes. It should normally be 10 minutes.

In the past 5 days only 388 blocks have been found; this is about half what the network should have been generating.

This is one situation where p2pool has a distinct advantage. You still have to wait for your share(s) of the block the pool has found to mature, but at least the funds are sitting in your wallet. At a centralised pool, the funds could be confirming for a day or two before you can withdraw them.
