It comes down to this and it's really simple, if you are bagholder it's not a scam, if you not a bagholder it is a scam.
There is nothing special about AUR as a coin. Buying at these prices regardless if it's a scam or not is dangerous as the coin it's copying aka Digibyte has a lower marketcap then AUR by $800k.
This is a obvious pump before the rollout of the advertising and Multi Algo fork.

AUR is special because Balduro was the first person to come up with a solution to the problem of how do you get crypto into the masses without convincing them to go sign up for a shady service like Gox and get screwed in the end or find a drug dealer to sell drugs for Bitcoin with. Because for the first few years of its life that was the only way for a normal person with no mining equipment to get into Bitcoin.

I still remember the drama over AUR when it first broke on this board and all the Bitcoin maximalists frothing at the mouth with hatred, guys like BitcoinEXpress coming in to fork it, people marching in line to call it a scam even though real Icelanders were proving they were getting their coins etc. etc. but how many of these Bitcointalk "legends" would have been willing to give away even 5% of their Bitcoin hoard to people all across the world in hope of spreading its adoption? Virtually none of them. And once AUR's marketcap was driven into the ground they all had a good laugh and went on their merry way.

People on here tell everyone crypto is literally "earth changing technology", yet they constantly talk good projects down like its worth nothing more than a few small burger joints from the midwest. The local business I work for alone pulled in $9 million last year and all we do is print paper products with a 10 year-old website, I didn't even know it existed in town when I interviewed. But there are small businesses like this all across the world making 10x the marketcap of even the top alt coins in crypto.

It kills me when I see kiddies saying things like Bitcoin with a $7 billion marketcap "is alot". LOL, just Mcdonalds alone is worth $90 billion.

It's one thing to attack the technological fundamentals but history has proven time and time again the best tech doesn't always wins. It's all about the best combination of solid and STABLE tech, a bit of marketing pizazz but also commitment to knowing who your customers are. Not trying to say AUR is like a product, but I believe the fundamentals of business and commerce is all the same regardless. It's all money at the end of the day right? The AUR team is one of the few who knows their target market versus alot of github autists who "think" they know what the average person wants or needs. AUR is one of the few alts with potential for real world use, versus all these other coins on CMC which are all designed to trade and make more Bitcoin and have no hope of ever being used for anything.

If you are going to treat crypto like trading baseball cards, than that is all it will ever be. But I personally think it can be much more.

Great post, that captures the essence of the Aroracoin project.

I sold a bit too low Sad

, could of made another 25% btc profit if I dropped at 80k sat Sad

. Great work by your team to get the price this high.

I believe that the higher price for AUR is a result of their work, not what their work is.

That said, I do believe we will see a price a lot higher than even now.

Ooops, looks like this should be here:
