With all due respect, we don't need the extra drama George. Heaven knows we all have had our fair share of it in any coin, including your favorite one.

With all due respect back Martin, this line somewhat made me frown;

Firstly, I think I can fairly say I cannot be hold accounted for some drama I was nor had any part of it in any case on whatsoever; do not drag me in as I was part of it or am extending it, just for giving a well intended flame regarding the matter (though certainly agreed it might have been otherwise perceived and received)...
And if you're referring to Gulden, than you're twice mistaken. With "any other coin" I wasn't referring to such, nor is it my favorite coin; you know that's the Bitcoin, and you also know my sensibility and standings within the Gulden community, especially when it comes to whom had what fair of share...



Now, having said such, I certainly you meant your comment well, and is also received as such. Just reading the magnitude of all the trolling, and feeding of it, somewhat got me astounded. Just don't feed it, as it will only fatten him. And if he keeps hungry, than deny him his food, by switching to a self moderated thread indeed  Wink

I missed ALOT in the last 48 hrs. Gulden is on its last days    and only came to this conclusion yesterday. There was a country coin pump for the last of the active ones being Scot and AUR, Guldens price was unable to rise much.

Don't get me wrong they have a great dev team and things like there mobile wallets are quality but the marketing is that bad it will never get anywhere. I feel sorry for the bagholders on that one.

With AUR I will wait until it settles at a price I.am comfortable with before buying in large amounts. I did pick up a little as I didn't want to miss out.completely on another push in price.

George you should consider dumping your Gulden and that project your involved with and come do it for AUR, this way you get to keep 50% of the btc there community put in? There is a lot more btc to be made here if you recognise the price jumped 4 * within a 2 week tineframe.

What do you think the price will do when the Iceland population start picking it up.

are you going to record or do a video in Iceland capital regarding the bus stop campaing that starts 26th April?

Yup, we are planning to do a time-lapse, similar to this one:

is it possible to know which wallet/ address has more Auroras?, is there a link showing who has more Auroras?

Do you mean a rich list?

Yes please

http://aurstats.com/richlist/

The top one is the cold storage of MintPal that went bust. We have been in contact with the curator and it seems the keys are lost indefinitely.
The second one is the Cryptsy wallet, that one might still become active, but it might end up the same way as MintPal as well.
No 20-40 (the 50K wallets) are the cold wallets of the foundation funds.

thanks for that well appreciated

Can one really use Auroracoin to buy/do things in Iceland? does it work in practice? Grin

LTEX said above :'' Well, I can almost positively state here, there are no merchants accepting AUR officially yet. We are also happy about that, for the strong foundation to support that would not have been ready. That's what our team has been working on the past year, preparing to re-launch Auroracoin the right way, with all the tools and structures in place.

This is going to unfold very fast after the first busstop campaign. We are not going to hype anything that is not actually live, so you have to maintain a little more patience.''

Wanted to thank you LTEX for answering all my questions! Thanks for the information! Looking forward to the exiciting times that lie ahead. The Hive Aurora webwallet is AWESOME btw!  Grin

Thanks for that info LTEX.

Some other questions I'm hoping you can help answer as well"

Do you guys support/recommend this online Auroracoin HIVE wallet?  (https://webwallet.auroracoin.is/)

Now that there is going to be a AUR-ISK exchange what will be the plan for the Icelanders from there? As an example: If i'm a Icelander and I can now buy AUR with my ISK what would I do from there once I have some AUR?

What stood out about Digibyte's code that the AUR team decided to go with that instead?

Were there any consideration in using a 'proof of stake' protocol?


Well, I developed the webwallet port myself and it's officially endorsed by the Aurarad Foundation, so I guess yeah, I support it ;-)

The best part about having the exchange is that Icelanders now finally are able to legally obtain a crypto currency. Of course some might use it to exchange the AUR for BTC or $ later, but we think most are going to see the potential it has as an alternative way to transfer value without the ridiculous inflation and interest rates ISK has.

We chose Digibyte mainly because it makes most sense to have a multi algo that secures the blockchain and also helps fair distribution by making it possible to mine on many (non ASIC) devices. We also believe the foundation under the Digibyte team is solid so we can cooperate on future developments.

We discussed POS of course, but decided to stay with this multi algo POW for many reasons, one of the most important ones being fair distribution and decentralization.

Please educate me on the matter as well as i'd like to know how the group intends to get folks from Iceland on-board in using Auroracoin? (asking from the point of view of just trying to better understand myself) What's the Pirate's party take on Auroracoin?


We have a strong presence in Iceland now. Next to the official foundation in Reykjavik, we now have a large group of people, including influential entrepreneurs working on the re-launch of this project.

One of the biggest flaws of the initial startup of this project was the lack of a true AUR-ISK exchange. We have that operational now and it will go live in the first week of May. This was our most essential target next to a solid and functional blockchain, which we accomplished by porting the Digibyte (based on Myriad) code. We also have been working on a platform to make it ridiculously easy and safe for merchants to start accepting AUR as means of payment.

And to answer your question relating the Pirate Party, our foundation has had meetings with their members before. They embrace the possibilities of crypto currencies and are very interested in our project. We do however refrain from any political stance.

AUR will be $1 within a month. Bitcoin price about to go +$500 and AUR to 100 000 sat. I don't care about the price but when Icelanders see $1 it will have a positive psychological impact.

Thanks LTEX for confirming that. Also in that article says:

'' A number of factors have contributed to Auroracoin’s whiffing away. First of all, even though the airdropping ensured a built-in group of users, it did not give them any place to spend the money, as it did not have any strong retail support.

Due to heavy traffic, the Auroracoin website crashed many times, significantly slowing down confirmation times for receiving coins, which made trading almost impossible.''


My question is  is there now any place to spend Aurora and where, is there a strong retail support now? and are you ready for the heavy traffic now...have you tested the new exchange for the any inconvenience , heavy traffic crash etc?

Thanks


Well, I can almost positively state here, there are no merchants accepting AUR officially yet. We are also happy about that, for the strong foundation to support that would not have been ready. That's what our team has been working on the past year, preparing to re-launch Auroracoin the right way, with all the tools and structures in place.

This is going to unfold very fast after the first busstop campaign. We are not going to hype anything that is not actually live, so you have to maintain a little more patience.

You raise very good points and make sense but allow me to ask this ''This is going to unfold very fast after the first busstop campaign'' how are you so certain saying ''  This is going to'' instead of saying '' This  could go'' I mean is good to be positive and all, and I hope  you are right but nobody can know what is going to be the outcome till it actually happens Smiley Please can you explain this level of enthusiasm? Also have you been approached yet by any merchants to  install Aurora pay system in their business or anything similar? I am not trying to be negative or doubting you , all the opposite, I do support your project and I think you are doing a good job so far but we need to reassure people why you feel so strong about things will happen Smiley

Well, by saying "This is going to unfold very fast" I mean the releases of what we have been preparing. To me they are no uncertainties because I'm involved in their development.
