Hmm, let's see:
NLG dev team:
Rijk: Dutch
Malcolm: South Africa
Jason: South Africa
Frank: Germany
Any more stupid uneducated remarks?
Who are these devs from SA?
Is there any hope of getting their details?
You can find them on the Gulden ANN (
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.14137745) Malcolm = MaNi, Jason = WaterLooDown.
Come to think of it, Gulden might actually suit you and your goals better then AUR my friend. They have two South African Dev's, they have large supply and aim to become a worldwide innovative payment system. They have been underpriced for years now, so your investors can buy in cheap!
I tell you what, I'm happy to trade all your AUR against NLG, so you can join efforts there with the same relative amount of coins. I've got plenty of NLG to cover your load.
Just let me know
Since the appearence of Adamastor at this forum, I am following the discussions between the devteam and him with interest. Adamastor understands the need for crypto currency for Africa and has put in a lot of time to educate the south african people about Auroracoin. On the other side we have a devteam that concentrates on the original purpose of Auroracoin; Iceland.
From the beginning, I had the idea, Adamastor choose the wrong coin. It is very difficult and confusing to try promote a nation coin in another country. I think, Adamastor makes a big mistake here and I am really pity for him his efforts aren't rewarded enough. Until now, I never talked about it, because I didn't want to talk on this forum about any other altcoin. Now, when I see LTEX making Adamastor an offer to change Aurora for NLG, I decided, I could post my ideas as well. For me, it's very clear that Digibyte is absolutely the coin Adamastor has to choose to promote in South Africa. In fact, Digibyte is just as Aurora and NLG a coin that is fundamentally designed to be used for payments.
Digibyte has an extremely hard working devteam and isn't designed to become a coin for one nation. Jared Tate the founder of Digibyte, was one of the key speakers at south african bitcoin conference held at 3 and 4 march, just one week ago.
Adamastor, I really think your efforts will be rewarded a lot more when you offer your help to Jared Tate. The DGB devteam always asks the community to help and is very thankfull for it.
I am not gonna post any links about DGB, everyone knows how google works.
I personally, own as much AUR as DGB, so it's not that I am promoting DGB. But the efforts of Adamastor on one side and the ideas of the devteam on the other side, gives me the idea that we have a misfit here. When two parties, both doing an excellent job, don't match, it's probably the best they seperate.
Adamostar, just in case you want to make a change from Aurora coins to DGB without losing money by trading fees and differences between buy- and sellprices, you can always ask me to sell Aurora for DGB.
Adamastor, I also would like to say something about NLG. For you, it's probably impossible to figure out what happened at NLG. I am just like you, an idealist, who sees the benefitsof crypto for all the people in the world. For centuries the normal people have been financially raped by banksters, western unions etc...This must come to an end. From the start, I followed all 3 coins, Aurora, DGB and NLG. I liked all 3 of them and I think all 3 have a chance to survive, allthough all 3 coins differ a lot. NLG has an unsolvable problem in my opinion. This problem is Rijk and Geert. They tend to run NLG in a form of dictatorship. The guys that really did a good job for NLG, like LTEX, BIOMIKE and ny2cafuse were never rewarded. So now, NLG is still a coin with a community with hard working people run by 2 devs who make huge mistakes, in my opinion.
Actually, the situation you are in now with Aurora coin has some similarity with the situation LTEX, BIOMIKE and ny2facuse had with NLG. With focus on "some". Don't get me wrong to think that I compare these 3 guys with the NLG devs. The similarity is that there are different opinions between you and the devteam and sooner or later we will see that a lot of good efforts will not have the result that they could have had.
off topic but I'm going to be on national television tonight. I starred in one episode of a series called showville, a local reality show that goes from town to town in SA hosting a talent show in each town. When they came to Simon's Town I took the film crew on a tour of the town which will cast a background to the show that happens in the town hall.
The reason I'm perma-bullish about Auroracoin is because it has me.
Don't rely on the people of Iceland to make you rich, the people of Iceland need you to lead them out of financial slavery.
The same goes for any other coin like digibyte or nlg. I don't know anything about digibyte but if they have a POS system for merchants then I will gladly promote its use to my constituency but when Auroracoin gets a pos system then that will become the default.
The only good thing about Auroracoin not having a POS system is the coins are less valuable which gives one more incentive to buy them knowing that its a matter of time until the POS system is a reality along with the krona exchange and all the marketing that on its way.
In the mean time I'm talking to marketing guys from Gulden about distributing it here in Cape Town.
Digibyte guys are welcome to educate me about its wonderful applications.
