my prediction is that now dual mining is dead, claymore will lose a lot of clients unless he finds some other coins to dual mine

Some things just can't happen. I found a reddit post that seems legit, which explains that:

Ethereum is memory intensive and mining is bottlenecked by the memory speed, while the compute units are waiting on the memory it uses those cycles to mine the second currency

That "second currency" was based on Blake algorithm -which now has ASICs available-.
What you imagine as "some other coins to dual mine" would be of another algorithm, lets say CryptoNight for example. As far as I know, CryptoNight is memory intensive (just like Ethhash) and there is only room for one memory intensive coin per card.

All of the above is my personal understanding, do not take it for granted.

That is right. We cannot mine the DCR and SIA soon.

That depends on your electricity cost. In my case (I have very expensive electricity, 0.3$/kwH) I have already stopped dual mining

Maybe you misread, i never said we can mine cryptonight and ethash together.

This is why i said he must find out other coins to be mined.
