This coin has a better amount of pools running now which is good.  Hopefully we can get the hashing power distributed a bit more evenly between them.  Congrats to aur.easy-mine.eu on their first block!  We've hit 2 so far at http://aur.scrypthp.com and are steadily gaining hashing power Smiley

Free cash for Iceland, but it pays to keep cool about Auroracoin

Couldn't some of the airdrop funds be used for the bounty? 

That would introduce some additional trust issues. I would've had to have been announced beforehand.

I would love to hear some plans for unclaimed coins (& timeline for being able to claim them).  Obviously the dev(s) should make a profit off of their ideas and time but announcing that X% of unclaimed AUR will be donated to Icelandic charities would do a lot to calm the objections of folks calling any 50% premine a scam.

The spike in network hashrate seems to have abated but persisting high difficulty means that mining is sort of at a crawl...

How about a bounty for someone implementing K. gravity well?

I think time to claim is 1 year.

Where should the bounty come from? Maybe we should setup a bounty pool and donate?

made a basic block explorer

copy from reddit post

I just whipped up a basic blockexplorer for AUR using bitcoin-abe.
It is or will be available at the following addresses:

* http://blockexplorer.auroracoin.eu (working)
* http://explorer.auroracoin.eu (waiting for DNS propagation)
* http://aurexplorer.info (waiting for domain registration)

I'm looking for donations to be able to improve the site make it more stable / reliable, improve the looks maybe add hashrate graph and/or other goodies

I would be very happy and motivated if people donated:

AUR: AL8vRddTujqaFJQ3feZpg1jYHz6Jv2Rkwc
BTC: 19JVSnxJx7rM8V55s6SqXNb7PHG7Q2pcj7


Thanks!

Feedback and suggestions are highly welcome!

Thank you!

Sent some satoshis your way as I've only just started mining AUR and don't have any yet.

Do you think it would be possible to spruce up the visual apperance of the BE to give it an Icelandic theme?

Thanks for your donation.

Before taking care of appearance (it's on the list), I have to fix the addresses (they are all wrong).

Does anyone know the address_version and magic for AUR or where to look these up in the source code?


https://github.com/baldurodinsson/auroracoin-project/blob/56e7650690dec94389992cb058e96d8739d253c7/src/base58.h#L281

thanks, Balduro.

Still need more help.

This is coin config (bitcoin-abe) for litecoin:

Code:
datadir += [{
 "dirname" : "/home/aur/.AuroraCoin",
 "chain" : "AuroraCoin",
 "code3" : "AUR",
 "address_version" : "u000e",
 "magic" : "u00fbu00c0u00b6u00db"
}]

what do I need for AUR?

litecoin:

Code:
PUBKEY_ADDRESS = 48, // Litecoin addresses start with L

auroracoin:

Code:
PUBKEY_ADDRESS = 23,

confused


Think it should be 0x97

https://github.com/bitcoin-abe/bitcoin-abe/blob/master/doc/FAQ.html

no, hex(23) = 0x17. got it working correctly now.

Code:
datadir += [{
 "dirname" : "/home/aur/.AuroraCoin",
 "chain" : "AuroraCoin",
 "code3" : "AUR",
 "address_version" : "\u0017",
 "magic" : "\u00fb\u00c0\u00b6\u00db"
}]

also note the backslashes in the JSON hex encoding right before the 'u's? I forgot these before (they're missing in many examples).

isnt there anyone interested in buying at all?

the prices miners offer are generally a bit high. There's a huge airdrop inflation coming, you know?

We could use some more miners over at.

Keep the network decentrailzed.


"This 0.1 automatic payment transaction fee is a network fee and goes back into the network not the pool."

Isn't this bullshit? Default transaction fee seems to be 0.001 and pool does not need to pay any network transaction fees..
It is ok to get some fee on withdrawals, but please tell the truth. Well at least you tell about the fee, the other pool doesn't even mention it.
(hmm.. maybe it is just some default on the pool sw. But anyway, it should be fixed)

Agreed. I've seen some very good explanations VS amateur accusations on this forum.

At least it's keeping this thread alive and kicking.

I like your style. It does seem awfully familiar though.

Your own point was Airdrop based on ID
...
I see max 5-10% of Icelanders claiming their coins. Rest would be stolen from DEV's on generated wallets and ID's or stolen by 3rd party people with botnets ....

The Kennitala is never used as an authenticator. It's a public ID number!
I linked you to a page of an authenticator based on that ID but you didn't bother to google translate.

The dev can't know beforehand which people claim their coins so it would be known soon if someone doesn't have his allotted coins (which can be stored indefinitely associated with an ID. Botnets have not yet mastered accessing physical keys and SMS authentication which is what we are talking about by the way (since you obviously know nothing about it).

I am not affiliated with this project except I mined a few and would really appreciate any actual criticism founded in reality so I could better evaluate the coin. So far you have provided nothing to this thread except the same kind of childishness you accuse the dev of.

In evaluating the coin the childishness of the dev is irrelevant only his intentions which given the circumstances are in his best interest to be open about.

If you or anyone has plausible theories on how the dev could make more out of this than by being honest about his intentions and just being one of the early miners please share.
