Can, Could, Might, Would..... Will it? Nope.
You can doubt the intentions not the actaul system.
We can all doubt the intentions because we are not mind readers and have no idea if the DEV intended for this coin to be a scam or not.
We can all doubt the actual distribution method because there is none.
If there was then the following questions would be answered:
Where are the websites and detailed TECHNICAL PROOF of any kind of coin delivery system. Where are the WHITE PAPERS showing his plans to thwart hackers and folks who would try impersonate Icelanders via VPN or by generating fake National ID's via algorithm like a common key gen? Where is the proof that the dev even has ACCESS to all the ID numbers in order to prove they come from the national database? Where is his list of Icelandic addresses if he wants to send paper wallets?
Let alone how is he going to explain what he is even giving away? Contrary to popular belief, most folks don't even know what a BIT COIN is, let alone what a Auroracoin is. Does the dev think that all these folks are going to get on a computer and take the weeks of reading and searching to find out wtf a crypto currency is, how exchanges work, how to convert to BTC/ Etc? If he plans on delivering "paper wallets" who is going to explain to the common folks how the encryption keys work or how to "sweep" those keys to a physical wallet? Where is his program for mass adoption of this coin in Iceland? There isn't even a SINGLE place in Iceland that will accept this "coin". NOT ONE STORE.
He would have had to have MASSIVE (AND I MEAN MASSIVE!) youtube, twitter, blog-o-spere, and PUBLIC educational videos already available BEFORE the coin went live in order for this to have a chance in hell of ever working. Even with ALL the above the chance's are still TINY that the country would adopt any crypto. People on these forums just need a reality check of the fact that most people aren't even computer literate (sure they can get on facebook, and type out a few emails, but that is pretty much the extent of it) let alone able or WILLING to do all the research and experimenting with cryptos to even make it worth their while.
I could go on and on.
The reality is that there is nothing but WORDS on a website.
Only some anonymous coin dev making promises that he can't deliver.
No matter what happens with this coin it WILL BE bad for crypto's, and ALT COINS in particular. This will be seen as another failure because the DEV of this coin did NOT do his homework BEFORE release.
This post is not FUD, nor is it an attempt to move price one way or the other. It's just a fucking reality check to those of you who are blindly believing in the promises of some random person on the internet. IF that isn't the definition of gullible, than I don't know what is.
If you want to go on about the short term profits of this coin, or how your market orders are doing well, fine. I'm all about that.
But let's call a spade a spade and stop the bullshit about this coin actually doing ANYTHING positive for the folks in Iceland.
As they say... "PICS or it didn't happen!" I say show me the PROOF instead of just WORDS on a website.
