- scrypt-based (off the latest 0.8.6.1 litecoin source code) and ASIC-resistant.
That is just stupid. Instead of improving diff adjustment calculation so that it reacts fast on possible massive hashrate added
or removed from network and instead of targeting the largest hardware mining base which is SHA256 ASICs, you "developers"
are lazy and fall for "ASICs are bad" craps, inevitably making your altcoin target small and already saturated hardware mining
base which is CPUs or GPUs. You are making your new altcoin "secured" by what, 100 GPUs? A thousand? How many miners
is that, few dozens at best? On the other hand, there are possibly millions of miners who are using easy-to-setup SHA256
ASICs ranging from single USB device to big farms. Targeting that particular miner base insures better spread of the coins,
compatibility with the latest and quickly envolving tech and opens the possibility to secure the network to extreme through
merge-mining with Bitcoin.
Get serious.
