Did quark become susceptible to ASICs? It seemed like a solid algorithm. Were there technical issues, or did the coins themselves just never generate support due to lack of continuing development?

Bunch of coins use Quark as a hashing algo and yes, there are ASIC available for it.

How much alteration to the algo would be necessary to make it ASIC resistant again? Would it require a rebuild from the ground up?

Why not just use x11 or 13 instead?

What are the benefits of those algos?

And what other newer parameters like difficulty scaling and such from the last few years would you implement?

Bwahaha what about a reverse PoS where you lose coins?
