I mined about 45 CURV with my 2 nvidia rigs (2 x 1080, 4 x 1070, 4 x 1060) of these until I read all the posts about skein being an ASIC friendly algo. What a shame! I was also interested in ARGO but I may abandon it for the same reason.

Why choose such an algo for something ostensibly for a "decentralized" platform? Neoscrypt would have made more sense, but there are SO many neoscrypt DASH clones out there.

Anyway - I will be interested to see what happens when/if this hits an exchange and I can see what my 45 CURV are worth - was it worth mining them with GPUs for about 12 hours? I guess we will see. I would guess that when plenty of these skein ASICs are up and running, this and other skein coins will get so diluted they will dump in price. So I guess I will sell mine sooner rather than HODLing.

Is it on any exchange yet?

Either skein nor neoscrypt are a viable solution currently. A x17 MN coin would be interesting as x17 consumes less energy, it's not listed on nice hash and there are no ASICs (yet). That would finally be something for the small (not warehouse) miner Smiley
