Don't forget that Bitcoin was originally developed to be mined with a simple PC using a CPU until someone was able to figure out how to us a GPU and ASICs where born.
This is so true. I had been with Litecoin since birth, one of the reasons being it took it back to giving the ability for any computer to mine. I won't say there was no way in hell that Satoshi didn't know ASICS and crazy crazy rigs would be at the level of the business it is today with mining and pools, but I do not believe it was the intention, and again, why something like Litecoin I believe was even able to get footing and literally create a whole new genre of currencies with "Altcoins", and I really loved how Litecoin had faster transactions and anyone could mine. Now we have Verium and something really new and beautiful with having this coin pair existing. What a time to be alive

The future is now, if you profit, make sure to spend too. I have been a user of Veribit within the Vericoin wallet for many a Gyft cards in my day and will no doubt be grabbing a few Amazon gift cards soon, but really hope to see VRC merchant use.
That's exactly what we need, some VeriCoin merchants. At least some websites that accept VeriCoin, as well as other currencies too. Why not.
