But for big coins it looks like devs are afraid to change anything
They have already considered on doing forks, XMR in a few weeks, ETH got a high votes for a fork to brick asics, X16r also can do forks
Hi @philipma1957 ,
miners do secure blockchains,
it does not matter what device is used.
It does matter as Cryptos considered and supposedly a "decentralized" coin, imagine a large hashing power only owns by the big whales as they are the only one who can afford to buy the large portion of machines.
The value of a coin does not come out of "how" it is mined.
And the mining profitability suffered which leads to small miners also give up
See value does come from how it is mined. Think of gaming I was a little too old to ever be a gamer.
I predate pong and space invaders.
I was a pinball player in the early 70's
But if you game a 1080ti system is affordable if you mine while you sleep.
Which means world wide adoption of gpu mining at the grassroots level.
It must be preserved.
I fuck around with Metroid but he called the shot that asic's were attacking gpu mining far earlier then I did.
It was a valuable thread he started .
The x16r thread has value.
and I want this thread to have value
I would love to see the x16r developer
say right now he will do
x20r in 4-6 months
with plans for
x24r in another 4-6 months after that
which fully will fuck asics
and of course make the raven coin worth dead solid money.
