Coins like this will be obsolete soon.
2020 = Libra. They had a chance to put up an own crypto currency for Iceland - but now Facebook will just take over the market with a solution everybody will love.
Its sad but american companies just know how to rock a market and they have the will to be #1
Teams like auroracoin just think of fishing and programming a little bit when the weather outside is bad. No unterstanding of economy like Facebook, ebay, amazon ...
This is a little too harsh :-) But I agree with your point - if I was a developer with a clear vision for Auroracoin & skills to support the vision I would buy a few thousand AUR at current (~ zero) price and build the hell out of it... There is literally nothing to lose.
