Auroracoin is like ripple without the protection from 51% attack?

bull shit..
people are selling Icelandic identities to claim free coins in bulk. so no your completely wrong buddy.

Selling them because they cannot use them themselves (found out they are worthless). The excuses here are endless. The airdrop was/is a wild success so far.

The validation process is not going to work so well for people outside Iceland... Even Icelanders living abroad can't by any means use the service even if they know how the system works.

They had to draw the line somewhere. You can't have it both ways. People are complaining that non-Icelanders are fraudulently obtaining Auroracoins from the airdrop (plenty of evidence they are trying, but I've seen none they are succeeding.) So limiting the airdrop to only those living on Iceland is reasonable. It's not like anyone can claim a right to the coins, which are being given freely to the selected population.

Fail !

Do you have _any_ evidence of wrongdoing by the Auroracoin team, whatsoever?

Let me get this straight. The dev creates a coin with a 50% pre-mine and when asked to use a reliable, identifiable and trusted 3rd party escrow for the air drop just says no; and yet you want hard evidence that it's a scam?

Every single indication points to this being one of the most if not the absolute most elaborate scam devised yet in the alt coin scene and you want to give the completely random and absolutely anonymous dev the reason of a doubt that his intentions are noble?

I'm not trying to be disrespectful, but we're you raised to be a sucker? Because only a sucker would fall for this bullshit. Seriously.

That is so funny. 


On a different note.  I am completely amazed at Auroracoin's resilience.  I was sure it would be practically at 0.0000000.... right now.  It is steadily going down, but has totally burned away as I thought.   Not nearly as many people dumping as I had thought.  Considering there isn't any place to actually spend them in Iceland, the only useful thing to do with them at the moment is dump.  Sooo, what is going on?  No, army of Chinese hackers managed to get through into Iceland's IP addresses yet?

They can barely dump anything, the blockchain is so fucked that it takes ages.

If the verification process wasn't so agressive, I would be inclined to believe you.  The only suckers in that scenario are the ones buying the identities.

Because the escrow wouldn't solve anything - you haven't been able to come up with an answer to this one:

The fact that the dev refused to use a trusted 3rd party as escrow for the air drop speaks for itself.

Icelanders log in to the web page to claim their coins. Process is automatic. Coins are sent. Please describe how the escrow process should've been arranged in order you to have been 100% satisfied.

Sorry - has this been discussed in a constructive way already?

What would a feasible distribution of a currency to 300,000 people need, in the trustless paradigm?

as mentioned in the fork thread, a currency based on ripple that doesn't need miners to protect a blockchain and doesn't need to be mined would work in this situation.  with such low interest and resultant low network hashrate, a blockchain currency is likely inappropriate for a distribution of this size.

take a look at the fork thread and ignore anybody that isn't a full forum member (<3 coins).  that includes me.  you'll get a constructive post mortem of the coin, as well as an intelligent discussion of a variety of smart solutions, including non-PoW coins, and merged mining strategy to protect blockchains with more established currencies.

That was the moment that AUR just lost the tiny, tiny, tiny bit of credibility it might have once had....
What is going on is a load of badly burned investors who can't / won't face the facts and get out of AUR while they still have a small percentage of their initial stake.
Anyone who buys into AUR from here on in.....I've got some Gaelcoin for sale, if u want a change of country
