Lost access to my original Coinseeker account.  Not sure why.  Either case, this isn't about whether you or anyone supports Ripple or not.  My previous comments are merely fact and the way by which the digital currency world will cope with multiple currencies.  Especially as it relates to merchants.  Without this, it's true, how will merchants accept 100's of different digital currencies?  It's just unrealistic but to say Aurora or any coin has no chance at success because it needs to build an entirely new infrastructure, is simply false.  That was my main point.  Technology exists that will prevent such a need and the only proven tech to date, is Ripple.

I was one of the guys who didn't push the ignore button so no point preaching to the choir

Hi guys, I've set up a p2pool for Aurora
Address: aur.p2phash.com

P2Pool benefits:

* No registration required
* Distributed hashrate
* Immediate payouts after a block is found
* Higher payouts with transaction fees paid to miners
* No account hack possible

Fee: only 0.5%
Start mining within seconds! Just point your miner to p2phash.com:12347 and use the Aurora address from your wallet for username, the password doesn't matter.

something is up with this pool my miner on my test bed went berserk flashing that it found tons of blocks with few errors it is only 10 kh/s that quick a finding of blocks is impossible especially at the difficulty of aur atm.

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 ?

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.

That's what Ripple is for.  This is how multiple digital currencies will be able to exist and be used by merchants and individuals around the world, all without the need for a centralized exchange or central clearing house.  Now instead of building infrastructure for each currency, only one infrastructure for all digital currencies need exists.  A Ripple integration will allow transactions into and out of any infrastructure.  For example:  The Bitcoin bridge in Ripple, allows Ripple to be used to make transactions anywhere Bitcoin is accepted.  This will eventually be true for all digital and fiat currencies.  I only say this because I know how people are scratching their heads trying to figure out how all these different coins are going to have utility worldwide without their own independent infrastructure.  The answer is simple:  Ripple    

The moment I read that about ripple I instantly checked the username... "~Coinseeker~" ...common?

This will be the big push. Last week was prep.

Maybe you guys are not paying attention.
0.03500000   1246.13851412   43.61484799
buy wall ^^

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

If you want you can sell me your house for 80% off while you are at it.

How long do you plan to wait? You can't really wait that long  , for obvious reasons Smiley

All I see here is pool spam, Is there ANY merchant acceptance in Iceland?Huh? and if so, proof?

Seriously?

IF there will ever be merchant acceptance, that'll happen long after airdrop.

How Does This Work?

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.  


WHY MINE WITH US?
Announcing 2% Block Finder Bonus - that's approximately  $20 per Block Found
We would never set up multiple pools to compete against each other - this is not good for our customers.  We just increase capacity.
Enjoy our speedy website - no lag.  We are on Solid State Drives with a 12 cores of Xeon processors.  If we need more processing power, we'll just go to 24 cores.

Cryptsy back. They said it's just some orders got stuck.

AUR on the moon again tonight. This is going long terms for days to higher than last week. (at least until airdrop hah).

How do you know that?

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.
