Doesn't matter what Wolf is doing on FPGAs... Where can you purchase FPGAs? How much are they? Is he openly selling it? Pretty much no to everything there.

New version of Decred might be worth it if it gets the actual hashrate on pools now... But I bought Decred with the intention of getting that speed on pool. Doesn't seem worth buying another version that gives me 25% less hash then I should be getting. Not interested in Vanilla, haven't been for some time. There are quite a few fallback coins I'd hit before Vanilla, that's even with the extra hashrate if it were free.
