This is probably April's fool, but I strongly believe that ASIC will come soon to the market.

At the beginning of ETH many people were claiming that the algorithm was not ASIC proof and that building this kind of hardware was affordable and convenient.
I am not an hardware expert, but considering those claims and the recent rumors, the change they are real is very high


I think its possible that ASICs are already used for ETH but in secret. They know if word ever got out that a proper working ASIC was already mining for ETH there's a chance that the algorithm could be slightly changed to brick the ASIC. I would not be surprised if a company such as Bitmain may already be mining ETH through ASICs.
