While the FPGA advantage is mainly power consumption I picked the whirlpool hash function because it runs about 10-50 times faster on hardware than other hash functions. That said, the move to FPGA's will be a huge leap forward in terms of hash output vs GPU devices.

Thank you for your support.
That violates the most basic requirement (in my opinion) for every coin. That is, to be mineable by everyone with a computer.
But I don't expect from you to understand this  Cheesy
You proved before, that you are a great developer but you don't  think too much of the morals of your creations.
FPGA support is an energy efficient evolutionary step forward. I myself cannot mine Vanillacoin because GPU's are too costly to operate currently. Cool

Thank you for your support.
Hm, hm this means that you don't see future value growth of VNL which actually could come true because of FPGA's and fact that nowdays besides P&D mostly price of electricity is what determines price of the coin, but as I said... only time will tell.
And regarding efficient coin production/distribution... you know that time limited high PoS period with lowering curve is the most efficient and most fair way for coin production until max coin supply is reached after which PoS goes in fixed low range percentage. With already finished staking wallets for IOS and android that would be the best thing to do for VNL in any possible ways.
