I just bought some.

Didn't bet my house on it, but having to up my orders cos not getting them filled.

(I hope they sell me the right 'fork' Cheesy

)

Whatever the technical merits of this "shitcoin"

it seems that, amazingly, most Icelanders don't spend 15 hours a day oggling threads on bitcointalk. There's already a few businesses starting to spring up who are accepting it. http://www.aurcoin.is/

Also, each day there is more press - especially out in the country. http://eyjan.pressan.is/frettir/2014/03/27/markadur-hefur-myndast-fyrir-auroracoin-haegt-ad-kaupa-notada-bila-og-kronur/

Maybe it'll crash again once all this FUD starts filtering through...or maybe it won't. All the same, must get in if you like the principle.

You juvenile pricks think this is funny? Every time you harm an alt coin you drive more people away from crypto. This is just another nail in the bitcoiner coffin ... RIP

agreed

+1

anyone that doesnt realise how this hurts the crypto scene as a whole is either retarded or made their money on btc and no longer gives a fuck what happens to anyone else.

Pathetic excuses for human beings.

--Anyone remember egold? That's what the outsider's will come to think of crypto if faggots like bcx are allowed to run rampant.

@Everyone

This fork was planned since weeks. This is pure manipulation and misinformation. Stop paying attention.

Nothing has happened. This is pure Anon kind of threats. Right response was (and from now on is) to not pay attention to these people.

These shitcoins like auroracoins are scam anyway. Better they die sooner than later, less damage is done and everybody is happy (except the scammers themselves and the noobs).

I dont get whats cool about it. Hacking is a skill, but when used against the general public and normal, good people lose their investments for some sociopathic kid's little thrill, its not cool or impressive. There are viable things to hack and people that deserve to be hacked. This hack is a pussy move and a crime against innocent people. There is really simply nothing cool about it.

Forked or not, this guy just sold a car for Auroracoin and it's national news.

I suppose he'd better hope his coins are on the "right" chain Wink

it seems to be doing okay. the developer denies there was a 51% attack.

Regardless if that's true or not, there's at least a few chains out there now

One should listen here, iGotSpots knows all about forked coins (and stroking BCX's ego).

Standalone POS coins have many advantages over NXT - plus they far less resemble a bullshit hyip pyramid scheme

LoL

I'd like to know of a single crypto that doesn't resemble a "bulshit pyramid scheme" by those definitions.

Basically it seems that the majority of scrypt miners are scammers, they scam people into thinking a blockchain is viable by making it momentarily appear to have hash power securing it, but really the scamming miners actually plan to abandon the chain at any moment so really it is not actually secure at all, it is just a scam in which the miners are collaborating to try to create an illusionary security to lure people into putting money into it.

Fortunately they seldom put enough hash power into any one chain to make it look convincing, so most of the scrypt chains are clear at a glance obvious garbage/scams, with even litecoin and DOGE looking very borderline too after seeing how their hashing power changed since DOGE came along and showed us how useless the scrypt miners are as a way of securing a blockchain.

@samesstee

No idea what you are trying to say. Because I don't see anyone here putting money on the line but spreading misinformation. And ofcouse, if others want to attack the Auroracoin that's their choice. It's Auroracoin's fault to not be prepared for it. But saying that miners have voted against the coin collectively because they didn't got a large share is wrong as well.

Originally mining was intended to democratize (randomize?) the distribution. Now, it all about someone holding the best hardware, undermining the one of the original goals of decentralizing decision taking. How's miners creating a cartel like this is not against decentralization? (And I am not saying they shouldn't try as this or other alt grow more successful attacks will only increase)

Nothing has happened. This fork was planned beforehand. BCX you have lost credibility by spreading FUD. You probably gained through this by buying low?

On the matter of miners voting against it. If all you (miner) care about is people should buy from you because in theory you will always be the first ones to get the coin. Then, to be truthful, game is over for you. These are early days for cryptos. Everyone involved has some technical background. You will never see any one group holding power like this. And if they do, they will be removed from the equation.

I wish 'one group holding power' was 'removed from the equation' ....... LOL MONEY TALKS
