Can you explain exactly how VERTCOIN is being protected from coming ASIC ?
my question is ASIC machines with 10 MH/s at LTC
mining VERTCOIN with 5 MH/s ?
or will not be able mining VERTCOIN?
From: http://vertcoin.org/Vertcoin-DavidMuller.pdf
Scrypt was utilized by Litecoin to try and deter ASIC use because large memory requirements are the
best way to try and make ASIC financially unfeasible. Litecoin held out for a while, but the original
memory requirements in the barebone litecoin distribution were just not high enough to lock out ASIC
completely.
Vertcoin has now been released as the logical evolution of Litecoin and introduces what's known as
"Adaptive N‐Factor". The N‐factor component of Scrypt determines how much memory is required to
compute the hashing functions. Vertcoin N‐factor increases with time to stay one step ahead of any
possible ASIC development.

this does not answer my question ...
whether it will be possible the new ASIC machines mining VERTCOIN
even with low values .... and how can we be sure that this will not happen as yet not available ASIC machines on the market
