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

[joulesbeef]

If AUR will drop again to 0.03 like the last week, that mean on Airdrop the ppl of Iceland will receive 31.8 x 0.03 = ~1 BTC.
Do you think that ~ $600 USD is a real help for them ?

has all fucking shit to do with helping them financially.

it is designed to give them a different means of exchanging value.

it could be worth less than a penny and that fact would still be true.

developer actually never expected this shit.

he always expected it to be worth much less.

Any body having a problem accessing http://unipool.net/auroracoin ? I believe it's down. Anybody else having same issue?

Yeah scam pool.

that sucks.. i think I only had 3 more days or so til my coin confirmed.

[Tweek]

A hard fork has been implemented.

• Forks at block 5400
• Gravity well added
• Block time halved, reward halved, halving time doubled

I can't seem to find either the new or the old block time, block reward and block halving time. Anyone can help me out?

Hey Guys,
I would really love to add you to my mining overview at https://cointweak.com/calculator/index/scrypt but I need to know the block reward for that. Is it a flat rate of 25, or will it change at some point and how?

They are trying to take it over the high from last week. But by all means keep dumping for pennies on the dollar.

I'll wait for .25 BTC per AUR

We were here when AuroraCoin first started and we are still here...  after a relentless Botnet attack.   Our pool was being attacked simultaneously by over 350 computers.  We have put another layer of DDOS protection in place and it is working fine.

Our pool has mined most of the AuroraCoins so far.   1184 Blocks x 25 = 29600   .  Our pool has payed out over $740,000 worth of Auroracoins to Miners.    How many AuroraCoins has your pool mined?

Proof is in the Pudding

Please help us rise back up in the ranks and you will be rewarded with a very high performing mining pool.    When our pool was at full capacity, the network block target was averaging 10 minutes - now it's 20 minutes.   Why is that - are there many low performing pools with large hashrates?     Give us some of your hashpower and you will see the difference.

We would never set up multiple pools to compete against each other - this is not good for our customers.  We just increase capacity.

Hi guys, I'me setting up a new p2pool
Address: aur.p2phash.com

Could some of you try to connect to it, I'd like to test what kind of load my server can handle. Since it's p2pool you won't loose any shares coming from another p2pool and local hashrate doesn't impact your earnings

People in Iceland don't need financial help. Despite the profound economic recession following the 2008 banking sector collapse, Iceland is still 16th, 18th or 20th (depending on classifying institution) richest nation on earth if you consider the Gross Domestic Product per capita.

What Icelanders could find useful though, is a currency that is not losing between 4% and 18% of its value annually (since 2008), which is what is happening with the Icelandic króna‎ (ISK), the one currently enforced by their government and central bank. A currency that would allow the Icelandic people to do business freely with the rest of the world and which wouldn't be restricted by capital controls put in place after 2008. Only the richest people, people with close links to financial elite, have the opportunity to invest in financial products that do not suffer from devaluation. All the others can only watch their monthly ISK pay checks devalue as each day goes by.

This currency might be Auroracoin.

That currency is Bitcoin. I still can't figure out why someone would feel like they need a regional crypto-currency, which nobody else in the rest of the world is likely to accept. Even IF Iceland somehow, miraculously, saw an infrastructure of commerce built up around Auroracoin (highly unlikely) they would still have to convert to Bitcoin, to spend it internationally...and the big question is, what would be the reason not to just use Bitcoin in the first place? The infrastructure is growing quickly around the world, there.

All they need is an exchange to get their local currency into Bitcoin. They don't need yet another crypto-currency, specific to their country.

Anyone know WTF is going on with them?

Just went *POOF* yesterday and has not come back...did I miss something?

Edit: Actually...I think it was the day before it went down.

Check Cryptsy right now. It has begun already.

The reason is simple. The person (whale/s) who was/were buying last week never sold. You can tell.
They need to see 0.2-0.4 to sell to make money. And all this has to happen before airdrop.

It's one of the easiest rises to read. It just will happen. The airdrop makes it so.
That is still two weeks away though. So perfect window. What exactly happens in between
is a mystery but it will for sure go way up.
