AURORA "airdrop" - before and after March 25

[BohemianStalker]

Aurora was in national Icelandic news. Hundreds of Icelanders recieved their first coins already.

SO much fun proving fags like BCex they were wrong all the time. Even though they were secretly buying . Oh well.

I am looking so much forward to AUR actually get used and will cost like 100USD one ina month or two.

Although I'm not a big fan of nation coins, I do find it bizarre how so many automatically assume they are all scams ... especially AUR. Maybe part of it is the fact that so many involved in that shitcoin killing thread also makes shitcoins themselves, and to them, they wouldn't hesitate to walk off with the premine -- so assume other devs would too.

Either that, or partial jealousy that a coin is getting so much attention, and eating away at profits from their own coins or holdings.

Anyway, I do hope it works out for AUR. I think the value of the coin will actually go down, as people cash them out ... but at least the dev seems to be doing what he said he would.

And they will now say it is a failure because there is a good chance the price will go down right away. (once coins are actually sent to the exchanges) In reality it would be a success. The coins were premined and distributed to the people he said he would. It is up to them now to decide where the coin goes.

I would still consider the coin a success, at this point. I mean, just the press it has gotten ... news, politicians in Iceland... stuff most alt coins can only dream about.

I read one person already saying that because AUR worked out, other nation coins will become even more prominent (more than they already are), and likely those devs would scam people. I am sure they'll figure out something negative to say, regardless if it's based on fact or logic.

I'm anxious as you guys.. 2 see if there's gonna be a super ollie grind on this coin 4 the 25th of march ~_` ,but give it a chance to get promoted inside of the country and letting everybody on earth know about it... there ain't no 50-60-70-80 yrs old people mining like a boss inside of most of the pools, 1/20 is gonna believe in CRypTo_curR3ncie, the other ones are missing the boat until it hits them face 2 face on ads, commercials, news, books, movies and soooooooo_just_shut_uP_SHHHHHHHHHHH\


everybody living in Iceland can reclaim a bunch of aurora :p, supposedly... sOoOoOo lets wait & S3E

Was it as hilarious as you thought it would be?

How do they check if the people come from iceland?

Yeah, good question.

[Canaanite]

How do they check if the people come from iceland?

They combine each person ID number + name (Iceland have public data base of the people) with that person's Facebook account (almost everyone in Iceland have Facebook account)

How do you know they do that? Are the processes documented somewhere ?

[Kapz786]

Interested to see how this pans out

Im not Icelandian so I cant know exactly how they do it, but its on the web and forums...
there is a counter at auroracoin.org and the wallets of the premined coins are disclosed

My question is more like how does the public know they distribute to Icelander not to themself in the name of Icelander?

Im not sure I understand
If you ask how do we know that he is not distributing it to himself, I guess we can see the addresses; but its going to end up with trust as we cant expect the people to identify in public for claiming the coins. No one will claim at this situation

So you trust an anonymous person to give away millions of $ to also a bunch of anonymous people but not himself and friends.

To me the latter is more like what is happening unless it is proven otherwise.

Auroracoin does have a lot of weight on the hands of one guy.
I find him as a man of his word; so far he didnt everything he said he will, but I wont put there my life savings

edit : Also remember that the coin was 100usd$ for a single AUR and Balduro didnt dump it and went to the Caribbean and you can see at https://www.facebook.com/auroracoin.org     a lot of Icelandic traffic

Well so far the price isn't taking a huge nosedive.  Any word on how much has been distributed?  The official claims link ( http://claim.auroracoin.org/ ) is in Icelandic so I can't tell much from just looking at that.
