I heard menero is forking to monerov which will use a new algo. does this mean 2018 is the death of the crytponight algo and lower AMD prices?
The Pow algorithm will change slightly every 6 months. So I expect the GPU can still use that.
Which algo is monero switching to? It just says to be changed and doesn't say
It will change all the time, so there is no need to know exactly now.
well yes there is, because AMD is only really good at the cryptonight algo, if you take that away, and the fact that ETH is going POS soon, I just dont see the resale value of a 56/64 in the near future being that good.
if I was a AMD miner I would sure want to know whats going on and if this is the end of cryptonight.
Im wondering why the big secrecy of the algo they will use, I dont like suspense, or count downs reminds of the XVG 2018 new years thing. Spit it out already, whats going on investors want to know, will there cards be obsolete after the fork?
