But the Premine is the all Idea in these coins
Ekrona offers nothing new or innovative. its just clone, the people of Scandinavia can just use Bitcoin or Litecoin

There are so many other better places to put my money at

ppl don't like zero-premined coin, but 50% so-call for XXX's people's coin.

Did XXX's people really get the benefit from those premined coins? God knows.

Most XXX's coins will being (or have been ) in such huge scams.

Ekrona is one of the most profitable coins to mine -> Average of 10 last sells on cryptorush is about 0.000065 BTC per 1 KRN at the moment. 1 BTC ~ 600 dollars today. 1 MH/s gives you about 100 KRN a day. Lets do the math. 0.000065*600 = 0.039 Dollar so in other words 1 KRN = 0.039 Dollar. 100 KRN * 0.039 Dollar = 3.9 Dollar per day. Maybe its not that bad mining Ekrona after all...

No pre-mine + 40 million coins in circulation + profitable coin to mine = success

No pre-mine = security vs someone dumping a ton onto the market and flooding it ie (Wulong)  Id rather have a coin that works towards something and gives a level playing field over someone hoarding until the market value reaches a point they decide is worth it to cash in on.

Whats the point of pre-mine, getting your reputation and such by dev'ing a good coin should be enough to facilitate future interest in your skills.

Everyone on the forum says stay away from pre-mine's.  KRN has no pre-mine and a limited quantity, so I think its only a matter of time before people catch on.

Hence the reason why Ekrona is better then both Aurora, Spain, and Maza.  Waiting to see how this airdrop works and if its endorsed which I highly doubt.  When the bust happens it will be laughable because it will be another Wulong 101.

Yes...
out of 10,650,000 coins 10,500,000 are going to be in the hands of Icelanders
If Baldur wanted to get rich he would have dumped the coins a long time ago and went to the Caribbeans, but he is driven by ideology not greed.

Canaanite, just who is it copying?  Aurora, Spain, Maza all these cultural / country coins came AFTER Ekrona so before you state something get your facts straight.

Also this coin isn't relying on a Dev / or group to push it, its the community that's keeping it up because they endorse it and arent putting they're hopes on the promise of someone relinquishing coins to a vast amount of people.

So lets get this straight, if Baldur wanted to dump he could, that's fine.  He hasn't as yet, but whats to say he won't?  What is stopping him?  Also how can you distribute a coin when the users its intended to go to may not even know about it or don't know about it?  Can you ensure receipt of the coins?  Lots of issues arise when you think about it when a person holds that many coins.

what is the relation of Ekrona and Scandinavia? what makes this coin Scandinavian beside the name and maybe a developer or two?
I remember when I bought Auroras in January I saw Ekrona and I had this debate if to invest in Ekrona as well. I saw that it offers nothing new or innovative... So I just put it all in Auroracoin. I would have done the same thing now

Whats stopping him to do so? his hate for the goverment's currency limitation...
not everyone is being led by money and I find Baldur as one of them (I wont lie, I invested in AUR to see some profit... But I did follow Iceland financial situation before)
about the technical things, you are welcomed to tour the website and the blueprint. not everyone is disclosed yet but all you need to do is to wait 6 days to know if you are right or wrong

So his hate for governing body is what is stopping him from flooding the market with coins?  Seriously? The point of BTC or any cryptocoin is not to be regulated, so your pitch about governing bodies and the rest just makes no sense.  None of these coins are governed and this makes Aurora just the same.  So what makes this coin unique?  Ekrona was the first Nordic coin, that makes it unique.

The only reason AUR is high right now is a promise, how Baldur intends to fulfill a promise that is not possible given that not everyone has access to or knows of AUR is a lingering question.  That in itself implores that the coin has limitations and many gaps.  It actually reminds me of the MTgox situation, holding coins and tempting people.
