You COULD count both CureCoin and FoldingCoin in that, kinda.

 But you're not going to avoid the "people with big multi-GPU rigs" issue no matter what you do.

I wonder if there is any coin that require both good CPU and good GPU for mining?
I know there are algos that work on both CPU and GPU like cryptonight.
But I wonder if there is any algo thet is bad on CPU, bad on GPU but good on CPU and GPU combined?

I am thinking CPU only coins get abused by botnets.
GPU only coins get abused by peple wigh big multi-GPU mining rigs.
But a combined algo would be good for gaming computers with a good CPU and a good GPU combined.
