The competition just heated up, say from lukewarm to the middle of the freaking sun kind of heated up.

KNC taking pre-orders for 100 M/h SCRYPT ASIC

Click on the "Litecoin Mining Hardware" link.

KNC as you should be aware has been the most punctual deliverer of BTC ASIC pre-orders to date. No worries about whether they can or will, or whether it might be a scam or run by incompetent dreamers.

Yup .... 100 Megahash .... Scrypt .... Shit got real.



I can't find the power consumption of the ASIC Sad

Shipping September 2014?  Anything more than 2 weeks away is crazy speculation.  I would stay far away.

I mine Microcoin right now its ASIC resistant and easily marketable to the general public.

I was thinking now that ASIC's are coming out for scrypt instead of making ASIC resistant coins why not just lower the memory requirements for scrypt coins so that the hash/wat catches up with ASICs... that way GPU's will still be in the game right. For example, lower memory requirements so that a 7950 can pull 2000kh/s. At least this way the efficiency gap could be close to an asic miner

VTC, MAX, there will be more coins for GPU.

+1

The end of GPUs - the same was said late in 2012 and still early in 2013 until many people became aware of the public interest for a more accessible, distributed PoW than ASIC centralization offered for SHA256, and will offer for scrypt.

And here come the new, anti-ASIC algos. Their value will grow as scrypt ASICs "take over" as OP implies.

Wash, rinse & repeat

There are some good up and coming coins that are still ASIC resistant like VTC. Mining LTC with GPUs however might be a thing of the past.

What about development of even more asic resistant coins and what that will mean for GPU miners?
