Its not enough in fact its folly to hope that a dev team of one or two people who are not even from iceland will turn auroracoin into a competitive currency in Iceland.

We aren't trying to be a competitive currency in Iceland. We are trying to be a complementary currency in Iceland. You've missed this point time and time again. See, Adamastor, you don't even understand the goals. You just make up your own version of them and spew this idiotic ideology about what you believe it is.

The devs focus on tech but put zero effort into marketing outside of iceland.
The dev team have been left in peace and an international community of supporters is growing parallel to their efforts

There is no community. I've seen your Facebook "communities". They are random gatherings of idiots that aren't even focused on AUR.

And you're correct for once. We put zero effort into marketing outside of Iceland because that's not where AUR should be used. Our goal is for adoption and use inside of the country, not in some hippie commune in South Africa.

It needs a passionate community who will build auroracoins image.

Correct. The image that it was intended to be. The AUR brand is that of a coin geared toward Icelandic people for the country of Iceland. Your idea of what AUR should be is a perverted version of that image that only serves your own purpose. Hell, you can't even get the brand imaging correct. Why do you think we would want you representing our brand?

The devs serve a limited purpose.

Correct again. We work on the technical development of the coin. But this is another point that you miss. We have Aurarad, the Auroracoin Foundation, which serves the purpose that you think only you serve. They are the team that is actively reaching out to the country of Iceland to develop the ties needed to make AUR successful there. Their team and our team work hand in hand to develop and advertise AUR as a viable solution for the country of Iceland. So again, your misinformed opinion of what is going on with AUR continues to prove my point that you really are not in touch with reality.

If im attracting the wrong kind of attention then what attention do you have in mind?

The attention we've been telling you we wanted all along. Attention in Iceland. Not attention in South Africa. If you want to be a part of the solution, stop being a part of the problem. Go to Iceland and do what you're doing there. Or rather, don't do what you're doing there. Do something there that actually appears professional, instead of these silly Facebook pages and hippy gatherings.

What is your opinion on advertising to foreign investors?

Stop. That's everyone's opinion other than your own. We don't need foreign investors. We need local investors in Iceland. And before you start going off about how I'm a foreign investor, understand this. I'm not "investing" in AUR to make it successful. I put my holdings in AUR when I came on the team with the understanding that I would not be paid for my time or work. My intentions were to work on getting AUR developed into a mainstream application that would be used by a majority of Icelandic citizens, and in turn, my holdings would appreciate in value. My work would make AUR successful, not my owning AUR as a foreigner.

This is where your plans are fundamentally flawed. You think by people holding AUR in other countries that AUR is going to be successful. All you are doing is providing a catalyst for market manipulation. That's not what we want. We want stable markets and national investments that remain in Iceland. Seriously... how many times do we need to tell you what our goal is? When will you listen and stop trying to be this counter party to the intended AUR goals?
