Do you all know that buying bitcoin or another crypto is illegal in Iceland now?  Wink
Good thing we'll be giving them Auroracoin for free Smiley


Does anyone know how "Airdrop" will be done? How they will validate their identity?

There are 320 000+ residents. Who will be doing all those verifications? This need really big team. Who will pay them? Who really is dev of this coin?

I know about registry but how they will validate that? How this proccess will be secure against ID fraud?
By "Airdrop blueprint", stage 1 will be 4 months, it is 122 days. So they need verificate 2 623 residents daily.  Shocked
Why is dev shaddow man. Domain auroracoin.org is registered to WhoisGuard, Inc. in Panama. Why?
Probably the same general reason we don't know the true identity of the person behind Bitcoin.  When you're messing with the status quo, sometimes it is best to keep your identity secret.  I know I would if I was behind Bitcoin or Auroracoin.

As for the ID fraud, I'm not sure and that is a valid question.

What if the Iceland government bans it?
Then they would basically have to ban bitcoin as well. Why buy bitcoin? Plus, there are good reasons to have faith in Iceland's regime: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DDexDNn6vSM

I know he may be anti-bank but why would governments want to lose the ability to control fiat and print baby print?
Auroracoin will probably function in the same way as bitcoin, as an alternative. The interesting part is that the distribution of the coin will be in favor of Iceland, not a small bunch of miners.

Lol, that I did not know. However, with a quick search I found this this:

Due to the capital controls put in place in 2008 to stop money flight on the króna, buying and selling Bitcoin in Iceland, which appears to consider Bitcoin as a foreign currency, is Illegal. The Icelandic Central Bank confirmed "It is prohibited to engage in foreign exchange trading with the electronic currency Bitcoin, according to the Icelandic Foreign Exchange Act.",[19] however commentators suggest bitcoins mined within Iceland could be freely traded.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legal_status_of_Bitcoin

If I interpreted that correctly, it should mean that it's OK to make transactions. You give me a beer, I give you 1AUR Grin

This clearly need a deeper investigation.

They would be stopping their people from receiving $271 (at current prices) for free.  I doubt they'd be in office much longer.

The higher in price Auroracoin goes before the Airdrop, the less likely Icelandic politicians will be able to stop it.

Iceland is the perfect country for this project.


Indeed... Iceland is great for this !  Hope citizen and business will mass adopt this fast !   This could be a nice example for other countries how we could do trade without the banksters racket !

Let's say that the critics are correct.  Let's say every single Icelandic person accepts the coins and then dumps.  What will they dump for?  Bitcoin.  That means every single person in Iceland will suddenly have some Bitcoin.  Every single person in that country will be utilizing cryptocurrency.  Do you not understand how huge and exciting that is?  And THAT is why everyone should be cheering on Auroracoin whether you think the actual coin has a future or not.  This is a VERY exciting event in the history of cryptocurrency.

50% premined..... bitch please...
The 50% premine which is going to the people of Iceland in a fair, efficient manner is what makes this coin so exciting.
i never thought id see the day when i would get exited about a premined coin
LOL same here.  Now that it's perched at the top of coinmarketcap, this coin will get the attention it deserves. For now, the liquidity is very low on the two exchanges (only 87k coins available to the public).  The price is going to rollercoaster wildly for a while. This could be THE silent launch crypto of 2014, like a submarine crashing through the surface.

I strongly support Auroracoin

I suggest people think before putting in too much of their savings. The rate might very well take a huge hit by airdrop. Maybe the best time to buy in is after the airdropping has started.

airdrop?

The, "Airdrop" is when the people of Iceland will each be given their Auroracoin.  It starts in about 25 days which you can read about here: http://auroracoin.org/

oh ok so the price will go down in one month?
That depends on the people of Iceland.  If they dump it (which I do not think they will) then yes.  If they adopt it like we hope, then the price will go up a LOT.
