I'm not sure what does an Avalon ASIC has to do with it?
I hope it's just a joke. Some people don't get it that these ASICS can only do double SHA256-hashing of a 80 byte long string. Nothing else. They aren't even good for password cracking unless you password is 80 bytes long and you have it as a sha256 hashe and could hash it a 2nd time.
Should have researched before talking bs. Cracking requires lots of bandwidth.
