BCX can't go to jail for mining a coin. It just so happens that he can be more than 51% of most network hashrates. Forks happen all the time its the nature of the beast. Perhaps people are stupid for putting a multi-million dollar valuation on a blockchain that can be forked by such little hashing power.
I see nothing wrong with this.
AUR has a value established by free markets. You see nothing wrong with deliberately destroying or degrading that value out of malice? If Icelanders come to value this windfall and then BCX deliberately damages the value of their holdings, I could see a hue and cry from the Icelandic population demanding that their government do something. It would not be hard to imagine them charging him with any manner of infractions having to do with property damage, vandalism, financial wrongdoing, you name it - and seeking to extradite him.

I actually think realsolid is a cool dude.. mcxnow.com is by far one of the best trading platforms. When there was a bug, and my MAX coins were temporarily lost, he actually fixed it and returned it and sent me a PM about the recovery.. (wasn't expecting that in this crazy crypto world) So if it is realsolid, he's got my vote of confidence.. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

attacka coin with a nation behind it. what nation is this? which nation has decided to back auroracoin officially? not iceland. it's a foreign currency imposed on iceland. Cryptocurrency is not "foreign", it is local to ALL of us. Let THEM decide if they want it or not. I'm amazed at the hostility being shown against Auroracoin and Icelanders without a shred of evidence. One thing is the rest of your post, and discussing in context of a thread wanting to attack AUR. Quite another is counter-arguing against kalus view, which is 100% correct. All cryptos are foreign. Do I have the power of voting on a referendum if I don't want penetration of some crypto in my country? No, I do not. This "let THEM decide if they want it or not" is just gunboat diplomacy

And now the politicians will do what public will demand, if it does not cost them. And blaming one person for everything certainly is the way goverments work for centuries, in case you have not noticed.

Here's an even better idea. Let the people of Iceland buy these fucking worthless coins to drive up the price if they want it to have any value. Why should I or anyone else here give them free money?

Most mcxfees were sold when btc was 200$. So stop with the bullshit.

This would be similar to Honduras making a crypto-USD and promoting this as a cryptocurrency for the nation of USA. My evidence is the developer team being based in panama, not Iceland. The Icelandic government, which represents the Icelandic people, considers this to be a scam.

Iceland is a neighbour to me, and the population could quite easily adopt a cryptocurrency. Iceland is modern, technologically advanced, wealthy, educated (don't take that for meaning clever) and has a great sense of itself as independent.
However, it is conservative and is bound to its traditions, like most small countries on the edge of the world. Iceland would adopt the Krona in cryptoform as long as it was a simple extension of the current Krona.
Iceland will not adopt someone else's vision, especially given the vision is the type off financial manipulation that Iceland fought just a few years back.

you're an idiot..
You're pumping this piece of shit and yet somehow I'm the idiot? buy them to pump them up and then sell them when they go up to a value you like.. you make money in the end.. isn't that's how all these fucking crypto currencies work??
Again, why should I have to buy this fucking scam coin to pump it, let the people of Iceland buy it and pump it all they wish; that is of course if this is really a cryptocurrency for Iceland. anyone that's still calling this a shitcoin, must have had an Icelandic person shit on them... otherwise I don't understand what the fucking problem is..
No one is calling this a shitcoin, we're calling it what it actually is, a fucking scam. And if you can't understand what the problem is, then you're the one who's actually the idiot here; not me.

As i posted in the AUR thread a month ago.. i think it's a worthwhile experiment. If there's any country in the world where this *might* actually work. It would be Iceland. Small enough population for this to take affect Relatively high standard of living Technologically capable, and educated populace Screwed over recently by banks For these reasons i supported AUR by mining it, sold 1/2 my stake when it was at 150.. but kept the rest to see what happens (guess that was a mistake, hehe).. but still , I think it's going to be interesting to see what they do with it. It will be a good data point for where the future of crypto and national governments could be come... and thus we should just let it be, and let the experiment run its course...
