A single party holding a handful of miners could perform a 51% attack on Garlicoin. Its chain is worthless. The rarity of the miners is in fact making things worse. There is no market for such miners so there is no fair market for mining, as there is in bitcoin or litecoin for example.

How fast do you think those miners are exactly? Because I get the feeling that you think Scrypt-N asic miners easily beat 1000+ GPUs. ^{(Which it doesn't)}

Please look into the bare hardware requirements of calculating 1 scryptn:10 hash, there is no way this can be done without also having a massive amount of silicon on board which will make it very failure prone and super expensive to produce. Why would someone buy a MASSIVE amount of scrypt-n ASIC miners (which again DO NOT exist in such quantities since not a lot were sold and most of them died already) which such a high failure rate

All the proof you need to have is out there.

Once again I'm more convinced you're just trying to spread FUD or are just thick. It's well known that none of the miners were ever released. (Guess why? Its incredibly hard to make them and the production costs are so high)

You're even linking to web.archive.org because the original live source doesn't show the miner anymore wtf

It's not inconceivable that there are a number of working ASICs out there. The devs themselves owning ASICs or being paid by ASIC owners would be pretty wild, though. In any event, I think the benefit of hard forking to change the algorithm and remove all doubts outweighs the hassle of hard forking.

Sounds like a movie plot, I'd say pitch it to Hollywood maybe you will make some money to buy the non-existing asics with.

A hardfork will not do the coin well in an early stage and without any real proof (other then scam companies and dead chips) there is no reason to act to it.
