I wish I can still believe.
But the price is hit me again and again recently.
Topic: Why me and a bunch of others believe in Auroracoin (Read 1279 times)
Any any reason to believe Isracoin wont end up like Auroracoin / Mazracoin?
they will just sell it at lower and lower racing it down to get actual cash.
It seems though that there's no indication that's actually happening... it seems that the icelandic people that are receiving these coins, are actually using this to trade for goods without cashing it out. It seems to me that they are being made believers of using cryptos and holding on to them..
I guess the market will reflect what is the reality, but my guess is that these guys are not in a hurry just to cash out to BTC/USD...
+1
I also think that the market is being led by few whales who decide on the price and try to make some money on us
there is no way knowing what is the real value of AUR. we will have to wait for consistent higher volume of trade
it will crash lower no doubt, even if they decide to look into crypto they will probably trade into something better.
I would like to know what is better?
Im always looking for a good investment as long as its really good, innovative and with a real potential (not a ponzi/pump&dump)
But, in the end, it's up to the icelanders. I do however strongly believe they have what it takes to Wake up and realize the opportunity. They suffered from the 08 crash more than anyone in Europe and they actually JAILED their criminals instead of throwing more Money at them like all other countries. Well you know all this so ill just stfu.
That aligns with my thoughts as well.. go go icelanders!
I'm not really sure when or where i first heard about AUR but hell Yeah! Actually, it was on the 25th. Anyway, this CC has the potential to be the sht. Ofcourse a lot of People gonna cash out but as the price drops, who really cares to do it? Why Waste Your coins for a buck and a half when it has potential to be a ton more in the Close OR far future.

AUR nr 2 CC by end of 2014 is my prediction and opinion.

Although that's possible.. it's also possible that a nationalism sentiment could be in play here that will make them want to choose AUR over other admittedly more established cryptos (like LTC/BTC). Could go either way, i agree..
All i know is that i haven't seen anyone actually buy anything with BTC/LTC without cashing into USD via bitpay/coinbase/exchange of some kind...
But I *do* see the people of iceland buying things DIRECT using AUR without cashing out to fiat.. (Now admittedly i haven't been here all that long..) But imo, it means something to me... that's my rationalization anyhow

I'm in the same boat as OP.. sold at around $70, but have recently bought back at $3.
I still fundamentally believe in the AUR network as a currency for iceland, and maybe that region. Mostly based from the activities I see on Facebook with AUR trades on secondary market goods.. i think it's found a niche to start with..
Now .. I don't know if that means the value should be $3 or 10 cents... but i've bought back the coins that i sold at $3 just because i think it's a cool experiment.. so.. go go AUR

I believe the price will go further down, as more air-drop progresses less than 10 cents as people get them for free without any expense, they will just sell it at lower and lower racing it down to get actual cash. It will take years after that to recover if ever.
I still find it troubling to understand how people get involved with this "currency" knowing the inevitable and still have faith in it.
I do not "believe in Auroracoin", but will watch to see how the interesting story develops.

But, why not just adopt a crypto currency that is strong, like Bitcoin? It has to the power to resist attack, whereas fledgling currencies do not. It has the support, the infrastructure, and it is more universally accepted.
If people as a whole insist on using a method of value transfer, then all parties involved will adapt.
As already stated, Iceland has some laws against bitcoin already. Although the govt. could eventually come up with the same laws against AUR. But it does make sense as to why bitcoin wouldn't be adopted or used initially.
I may be in the minority, but it sort of baffles me as to why anyone thinks bitcoin will really be adopted widespread as a currency anyway. As a commodity, yes, possibly. But as a currency, it's so insanely slow.
I don't think AUR will ultimately succeed vs bitcoin, but no real harm if the OP is simply hedging his bets and using a bit of his profit to buy some AUR at its current price. I certainly wouldn't go all-in on it though.
We are talking about non technological people who live very poorly. just like Cryptocurrency will have hard time of Africa
lol. Just goes to show how little you know of technology in Africa.
Africa lags regarding everything that is connected to Technology. The only exception is South Africa but its still far behind.

and the list is LONG
I'm not trying to be racists here as. But bitcoin is a top end technology and not every place around this world is able to adopt it. In my opinion the whole world is not ready yet... but its heading that way

Hey man I kind of understand your belief, as I would like to see Mazacoin be a success, even more than Aurora. Icelandic people don't suffer from the kind of social/political pressure that the Sioux have to endure, but they still would stand to benefit from an even MORE level playing field that crypto currencies offer.
But, why not just adopt a crypto currency that is strong, like Bitcoin? It has to the power to resist attack, whereas fledgling currencies do not. It has the support, the infrastructure, and it is more universally accepted.

I would also like to see Maza going up, But it probably wont happen so fast

Bitcoin looks very promising and I have seen a huge multiplier on it BUT you need to remember that 50% of the bitcoins is held by 1000 addresses. Its very centrist and unfair.
The people of Iceland are not allowed to buy Bitcoins by the law... they are only allowed to be given them for free, thats exactly what AUR do
I see that you have a prejudgment about groups of people that would be hard to dislodge. So, I am not going to try.
I will say that all three groups have the ability to use crypto currency with equal effectiveness given the proper tools.
Bitcoin is for spending, not for holding. While many prefer the latter. They can't hold it forever, why would they? What good is something that has no intrinsic value if it is not used?

indeed. you believe in it because you were stupid enough to invest in it and getting out is not as easy as getting in. the lies about how much money you made in theory is just another little trick your brain plays on you.
in reality, not a fuck was given in iceland about your internet monopoly money. it has no purpose and no relevance. and your "almost 9% of Iceland's population (330k citizens) already claimed their coins in a bit more then a week" is just lol. if you have to believe such obvious nonsense, you must be desperate.

I have seen the Auroracoin facebook page increase by five times (from 1000 to 5000) in a week by Icelanders.
As well as people trading it
so yeah.. someone DID claim these coins. Unless you can come with a solid prof that shows i'm wrong
sir, you believe that 9% of iceland's population actively went online to claim some pretty much useless playmoney from some geek corner of the internet. reason and you are obviously two different things. there is no point in arguing with you. instead take the palm of your favourite hand and place your face in it.
again, give me your proof...
go to the blockchain and count http://explorer.auroracoin.eu/ , just something that show that what you believe in is true and not made up
