Yes, there was also a time when people believed the world is flat. World will use GPUs again, because they are much faster. Maybe you should leave the current
orthodoxy about the world is flat. And in 10 years down the line, ASICs for hashing are dead, I would say already after summer, but this is just a rough estimation.
Conan
You haven't explained how ASICs will be dead after summer, or even why?
here comes the punchline;
"Pre-Order the 'Mighty Conan' 100TH/s of pure water-fuelled hawaiian hashpower - all you need is 300 hamsters to run the waterwheels and a dynamo."
Thats the problem, people always make jokes about things they do not understand to show their own ignorance.
Did anybody ever got the idea that there might be a math solution you are not aware of. A new transferfunction of Hashes and I am sure that people do not tell you
so you must buy all this ASIC scrap (totally overpriced) ? You always talk about how to speed up the calculation via ASICs. What about speeding up via mathematics ? A flexible math transfer function cannot be put in ASICs. So back to I7 and GPU. I am pretty sure that will be faster as 100TH/s with water cooling.
Remember WEP encryption, once the ultimate security solution, today it is cracked under 3 minutes due to math, not increasing the calculation power.
No need to reply, I will not follow this threat.
