There are no, and will never be any ETH asic.

"We are Dead! - ETH ASIC are out!" - Ethereum forum.
I'm wondering if there is anyway to be ASIC resistant without changing algorithm.
I don't think there is a way, but if the devs are willing to change whenever a Asic gets released for lyra then i don't think they will make asics. Otherwise it will not be very profitable for them lolhttps://forum.ethereum.org/discussion/6586/we-are-dead-eth-asic-are-out

Yes, I still have my HD 7950's, which have ROI'd many times over.
Thanks VertCoin!

Also, Since there's so much worries about resource management, climate change and pollution, we should remember ASIC's are specific hardware, with very limited time life. After they become obsolete, its just another piece of crap that doesnt fit anywhere else. W
On the other hand, GPU's can and are being used to mine, work and play. And for my experience, they might last a couple of decades

BTW this pump's volume is western on origin (polo), not chinese. So don't expect too much.

what's going on with VTC? Is there any news or is this just another random pump thanks to polotrololo? Does VTC even have an active dev at this point?
Several active devs . Wallet is being updated and still ASIC resistant
Can someone explain why ASIC Resistance is so important? I get the concept but why all of a sudden is this significant.
The idea is that you don't need a lot of money to mine . Anyone who has a gpu can mine ( which is any gamer , or most people with a computer ) Asic's are specialized computer with one purpose ( to mine a specific algo) , they are expensive and can only be used for that purpose. Only a few companies make asics , so coins that use asics are at the mercy of said companies to make asics and better asics every so often .The main problem is that some, if not all asic companies build asics and use them until they pay for them selves and then sell them to the consumer when it's very hard to make ROI on them .

I'M IN AND READY
7.25-7.5 % share actual supply
Time to get VTC to the place it deserves folks

What is The best pool for mining Vert?
You should benchmark them yourself - naturally, there are VTC mining pools with incredibly fast stratum servers and amazing implementations of the Lyra2re2 algo.
Some mining pools have an inefficiency rate below 0.5%
You can use this as guide on benchmark methodology applied to mining an algo:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.16010443
But my setup not good for mining with 1070... if somebody can help.. thanks
There are lots of opensource ccminer versions avaliable on Github!
There is compiled version for Windows 7 or 8 or 10 for a 1070:
http://cryptomining-blog.com/8059-updated-ccminer-1-8-dev-fork-by-tpruvot-with-faster-lyra2rev2-and-decred/
Or
http://cryptomining-blog.com/7997-windows-binary-of-the-ccminer-1-7-6-r6-fork-with-faster-lyra2re/
Intensity is "-i 23"
There are whole heap of ccminer versions for 1070 and 1080.
Some need you to install Nvidia Cuda 8, you need to register with Nvidia and download and install.
Then, benchmark the mining pools yourself.

The ceiling is pretty high on this one. Anything is possible.
