I think you are abusing your power as the OP to call it a scam.
1). The so-called banned post is clearly live. I saw that post right before visting this thread.
2). Banning a speculation reddit post about the possibility of ASIC does not make a coin scam
3). No hard fork = scam? I guess most cyptos are scam.
Yeah I suggest that OP remove the scam tag. There is no conclusive proof or evidence that there are indeed ASICs in the network.
There can't be definitive proof of ASICs being on the network and that's really besides the point here. Miners can disguise their hashrate, solo mine etc. But even under those conditions we see absurd hashates from the top minees on pools.
The fact that developers falsely advertised the coin as ASIC proof is really what matters. The coin's chain is under constant threat of attack this way and the ASICs already in existence could do so easily. Not to mention that such an algorithm would allow for the creation of further ASICs.
