How is market cap calculated?

Price x Number of coins in circulation

Current Auroracoin market cap:

.05225 BTC/AUR x 103,851 AUR = 5426 BTC

I don't give a shit about any of that, all I want to decide is whether aur pump this month has any legs left or is it dead? I already figure it's done after the drop, at least for a good bit.

The massive pump was mainly due to coindesk publishing an extremely deceiving article about Auroracoin.  Their sensationally epic pump of an article failed to mention that only 100,000 AUR were in circulation:

http://www.coindesk.com/icelands-auroracoin-passes-litecoin-becomes-third-largest-altcoin-market-cap/


It has taken a few days for investors to realize that they need to dump their AUR now to avoid the crash when the supply quickly inflates by 100x starting on March 25th.

So basically what your saying is that when the airdrop happens the market cap will be approximately:

.05225 BTC/AUR x 10,500,000 AUR = 548625 BTC

That's a lot of Bitcoin.

It is right to raise concerns about what happens to the price when the coins start circulating. Who knows what will happen.

I do however think you are overestimating the pace at which this will happen. Hopefully the infrastructure needed for adoption in Iceland will have time to form and mature in the mean time.

No, what I'm saying is that even if the market cap increases from the current 5426 BTC to 20,000 BTC after the airdrop, we're still looking at a massive price drop


current market cap:

.05225 BTC/AUR x 103,851 AUR = 5426 BTC


4x increase in market cap, given airdrop is successful:

.001885014 BTC/AUR x 10,610,000 AUR = 20,000 BTC


4x increase in market cap, assuming only 10% of Icelanders claim their free money:

.016515277 BTC/AUR x 1,211,000 AUR = 20,000 BTC


No matter how you look at it, there will be a massive drop in price once the airdrop starts (and also prior to it as investors anticipate the drop)

Nobody wants to be left holding the bag when the best case scenario is the price dropping down to ~.02 BTC/AUR

Why are you changing the BTC/AUR exchange rate?

Why are you changing the BTC/AUR exchange rate?

The calculations are based on market cap predictions.  The price per coin changes based on the market cap and the amount of coins in circulation.

The main reason I keep posting in this thread is simply to warn people about the incoming crash so noobs don't get burnt.

I also find the lack of basic logic in this thread to be very entertaining.

How do you know this?

Are you on some of  "teams" responsible for the pump/dumps? Like wolong's?

This coin is busted up.
1) Transactions take forever to confirm (seriously fix this, it took me like 12 hours to get confirmations in wallet for sending some coins)...
2) Blocks take forever to mine. . .
3) Price is pretty much devastated because people know airdrop is around corner.....
4) The price is guaranteed to drop to less than LiteCoin as soon as air-drop hits , because if its worth "anything" people who get them for free will inevitably just dump them.

5)In order for people to hold them, 40 coins has to be worth less than say 20~50$ just so that people hold them out of "curiosity", if its anything over say 100$ per 40 coins, people will probably just dump them , especially since they have no skin in the game say like miners or people who are actually trying to use the coin.


Price has to drop to say 5~10$ a coin to be "viable" for airdrop.... hence the devs being concerned about speculation driving price up.

It had no business going as high as it did , seriously . . .


If the price stays this high, it will pretty much make the airdrop a huge failure moment, because the last thing you want to do is give people coins that instantly drop 50% in value over-night and then try to sell them on the idea that its better to use than a currency that devalued 100% over 20 years....

The best thing for airdop would be is if these coins are held at artificially low values leading up to air-drop, so that when people get coins in their hand they start to appreciate in value instead of depreciate.


Best thing to do , to keep this coin healthy . . .  is to hold a few coins Say 20 % of what you mined as a reserve, and just dump what you mine every-day . . . keep the price low so when airdrop happens the coin has a freaking chance for adoption instead of just handing people something that will de-value 100% the day after the air drop.

I don't get anyone's logic right now for hoarding this coin, the price the other day was a fluke /  freak occurrence. . .  the price is clearly going to slip under 20$. . .  I think personally im going to set a few buy orders in at 5/10$ where I think you have a more . . . say realistic valuation grounded in reality.


I mean , I hate to say it . . . but 30$ is way over-priced for the inevitable chain of events that will take place.
I think sellers should get what they can NOW before price inevitably drops.... the airdrop just puts way too much downward pressure.

Best time to buy will be during the airdrop , they dont call it an air-DROP for no reason.

Then again, what do I know . . . anything could happen, maybe it could go 1 to 1 with bitcoin tomorrow, the world is full of crazy people with way too much $$$ in their hands.

Leetpools!
