Some of our dev team members have had a meeting with members of the Pirate party. They have shown great interest in all things that make society more transparent and honest. Crypto is one of them. As of now, Auroracoin is the only crypto available to Icelanders because buying BTC is nearly impossible due to currency controls.

Meanwhile it's getting cosy again at Parliament building:

Oh My GOD! thanks for that, I will try to buy more Auroracoin

We have a meeting with a few from their party maybe 3 weeks back. They showed great interest in cryptocurrencies and realised the importance of Auroracoin in Iceland. They want to arrange for us to have a lecture for the party to educate them on the matter. That lecture hasn't been arranged yet but I think we will get to that after the main madness of the current situation blows over.

The Pirate party doesn't have on their agenda to adopt crypto but they do have on their agenda to change laws regarding issuance of currency so that it allows the creation of alternate currencies (don't say exactly crypto but you can read in between the lines), reconsider the whole monetary system and to clear the way for alternate currencies to be used as a form of payment. This as well as looking at other options that could replace a fractional reserve system.

I know a lot of their members are tech nerds and many of those are into crypto so I would say that the presence and interest in crypto there is strong.

Yes LTEX link provided says:

''One topic of conversation will surely be the legality of cryptocurrencies, as Iceland placed an outright ban on cryptocurrencies late in 2014. Generally speaking, Pirate Parties are in favor of cryptocurrencies, and the recent success of the Finnish Pirate Party in funding campaigns with Bitcoin will certainly motivate their Icelandic counterparts to bring the cryptocurrency discussion back to the table''

All these look pretty good for the future of crypto and more for Aurora

Here is a piece that shows they embrace cryptocurrencies:

Icelandic PM (and his parliament) on the verge of collapse!

http://ruv.is/frett/government-in-crisis-pm-meets-with-president

Word just came out PM requested to dissolve his Parliament. President is going to look at possibilities for new elections!

LTEX I am glad you keep us updated, and I m new on this thread, by experience if your coin will start growing by doing things well, you will start getting trolls to attack you either because of jealousy or they don't have a single Auroracoin.

I know nothing about politics from your country but you said '' Icelandic Pirate party will probably win new elections and they are great supporters of Crypto currency'' Who is the Icelandic Pirate party? are they left or right wing? what kind of ideology do they have? How do you know they are great supporter of Crypto currency? Do they know about Aurora and if so, do the have any involvement in Aurora as they are great supporter of Crypto?

Looks like Icelandic Pirate can form government and some of the answers I asked are already answer in the below article but how do you know how they support crypto currency , do you have a link that confirms that

Since our government did not resign yesterday, new protests are being planed today at 5 o'clock. Not sure if they will top yesterdays protest which was of epic proportions!

https://www.facebook.com/events/929049413861099/

Why do the people of Iceland ask their government to resign when they can just take the governance away from these corporate politicians by using auroracoin.

That would be awesome, but how can you do that by using auroracoin?

All this looks really amazing!!!

Please can you tell me where can I read more about the ISX exchange?

Hey Porte. I posted some information and screen shots of the exchange on our official forum a while back. Some new features and changes have been done since then but this should give you the general idea.

Maybe I'm repeating too much the "tokens security" mantra. But there are any plans to implement a hardware security key, multisig or any other 2FA instrument for the AUR wallets?
Also a awareness campaign regarding secure storage and exchange of AUR, can do only good to the general public.
I'm hearing about cases of lost tokens by misuse and theft by hacking and social engineering, almost every day.

Can't agree more.

Well, you can find it on http://beta.isx.is . It's in Icelandic only though, since only Icelanders can use it. If you want more info, you can also join our slack-channel and talk directly with the developers. If you PM me an email address I'll make sure you get the invite.

why do you think the price of AURORA is going up?

Here are some small hints:

Perhaps one of the greatest revelations of this decade: The Panama Papers!

Many well known people including heads of state have been caught in the act of hiding billions from the general public yesterday. This story can easily turn into one of the biggest scandals in history! Will this finally open up the eyes of the general public and make them look at Crypto as a way to prevent this?

To me the most interesting person on the list is obviously Sigmundur Davíð Gunnlaugsson, the PM of Iceland. Today they are probably going to protest like crazy against him and my guess is it will turn into another Pots and Pans revolution demanding his government to resign!

If this happens the Icelandic Pirate party will probably win new elections and they are great supporters of Crypto currency!
To me it's a no-brainer, but this will definitely make a huge difference in getting our coin accepted in Iceland!

LIVE STREAM OF NEW PROTEST!

No one is telling anyone here to back off. We just like you guys to respect the fact that all members of our team share the same clear vision as to why we dedicate our time and efforts to this project.

I can understand perfectly well there are some of you that are here for speculation and profit. Nothing wrong with that. Perhaps you can also understand that the foundation under your future profits lies not in hypes and pumps, but rather in real development of a strong user base in Iceland. So perhaps I can ask you kindly once more to have speculation discussions in the post Molecular was so kind to setup? You can find it here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/aur-auroracoin-market-observer-1067036

We as a team have chosen to invest in the long term. That means we are going to build on real acceptance of Auroracoin in Iceland. For this we have been building a strong foundation. This exists not only of the new multi-algo code, but also in the AUR-ISK exchange we have build (beta.ix.is).

Currently we are working on a detailed marketing plan that involves real commercials in Iceland. We are (rather soon) going to start a campaign with huge posters in all 100 bus terminals around Reykjavik, which will look like this:

The terminals have over 5 million driveby's a week! This means that in one week most people have become familiar with our logo and name. It also makes Auroracoin something that is real. Once we start unfolding our releases to the press people in Iceland are going to say "Hey, I saw that at the busstop before" Rather then "Hmmm, some internet thing from a couple of nerds".

The board members of the foundation are visiting our Dutch team on the 24th - 27th of march to work dedicated on future marketing plans. We expect a lot of local media coverage and are especially excited to announce the launch of the ISX exchange. This will be the first time since the currency controls came in effect that people of Iceland have direct access to a cryptocurrency with ISK.

And there is one very big thing in the making that will probably get over 100K Icelanders actively using AUR within this year. All of this from within Iceland and together with businesses that have chosen to partner up with us!

Some scumbag hacked into my bittrex account and dumped about 8BTC worth of my coins on Saturday, 15K of which was AUR, gutted.

I only managed to buy back 5K, still better than nothing.

Interesting times ahead for AUR.

I'm curious with Mintpal having gone under, same with Cryptsy, what percent of the AUR supply is potentially lost forever or at the least locked up for a long time until courts sort it out?

There are some estimates about 1 million to 1.5 million aur lost. This can off course never be confirmed but the cold wallets sit untouched for 2 years now.
