mining is so 2012-2013
price is going up like a lot still, I think it is a total scam coin, no backing up by the government, just some dude saying he will give it away, but no good plan to make sure it will happen correctly.  still... the price was going up like steadily, so I bought in for $100 USD.  Immediately the exchange prices plummeted and I wanted to panic sell.  After a long ride (and I am assuming more speculators jumped in) the price was up.  Went to sell in small amounts and as I did so the price just kept on dropping.  Finally when I sold all, the price shot back up.  Very suspicious.  Anyway, it was at least kind to me, but it really seems like this is a massive scam and the people putting in last will be left wondering what happened.  For sure the dump will start before the actual drop as the drop will mean a massive dump, but how long before? At least today was okay.

my friend, you need to learn some basics of stock trading, it's similar.  If you buy at the peak of course it's going to drop. If you think the price is too high and people are starting to sell off large amounts, wait for it to come back down, because it always will.
How do you tell where is the peak? For one, pay attention to the supply and demand amounts, and the velocity of the buy/sell transactions.

yes, agreed, but still learning about this and learning how to read the charts

At the current exchange rate (0.1 BTC) that would equal 1 MILLION BTC if all 10 million Auroracoins are exchanged for BTC and then cashed out. Imagine if you can what this will do to the price of BTC. It will go into freefall as there are not enough buyers in the market to absorb that many sales.

As I don't want to see this poorly thought-out and designed promotion crash Bitcoin, I seriously hope the exchange rate tanks to a miniscule amount before the airdrop. And why the fuck do the people of Iceland get to be handed for free thousands of dollars in crypto coins each that if all cashed out quickly could seriously damage the exchange markets for all cryptocurrencies? Not hating on any Icelanders at all. I just seriously doubt that they give a rats ass about the health of Bitcoin or any other coin and just want the $$. Aurora coin is useless to them otherwise at the moment. They can't buy anything with it and most will likely fear the government will quickly ban it and will want to get what they can before that happens.

Hopefully I am not the only one who actually thinks this whole thing through to likely conclusion. Go ahead and tell me otherwise. I am sure I will hear from someone that this isn't true and I don't understand economics or free markets or some bullshit. I will tell you what I damn sure understand and that is human greed and how it can totally blind someone to the real facts and potential outcomes of their actions.

Umm, your logic is way off.

The only way for them ALL to cash out at the current exchange rate is if the current BUY WALL is 1 MILLION BTC! Right now the buy wall is 2 BTC.

If you go all the way down to .07 BTC, there is only about 15 BTC TOTAL that can be cashed out.

Unless that 1 million BTC buy wall comes along, your gonna have to work a bit harder at thinking this through to its logical conclusion Wink


This little bit about the "buy wall" is a fact, no other way around it.  I am bumping it for any newbies. If even 1% of people get airdrop and even 1% of those cash out, the price will be effectively 0.

Sigh...the problem with the high confirmation times lies not with the exchanges!! This coin is being "raped" by the multipools like Wafflepool et al, they mine when difficulty is low until it goes up again, then leave waiting for the difficulty to drop again. Before that happens the coin is being mined with much less hashpower and so the generation of new blocks (including our transactions) takes ages. And you can blame the multipools but it is actually a designflaw of AUR itself getting corrected by implementing KGW which becomes active at block 5400.

Generation of the last block took more than 2 hours. See: http://blockexplorer.auroracoin.eu/chain/AuroraCoin?hi=4091&count=20

Why are people who are not familiar with day trading suddenly complaining it doesn't work out for them. I am glad for you it worked out nicely today, but seriously, buying in just because you fear missing out and panic selling as soon as it drops Huh ? That is how you lose money my friend (The Noobs way!) My play? Keep my 2000+ coins and contribute to its success! For sure I will sell some before airdrop at 0,4 or so (just as an insurance), but I will keep the bulk long term. Either you believe in the coin or you don't, if the latter, then just leave it alone!
