I'm seriously wondering if I should dump ALL my coins while their still worth something.

You probably should but that has nothing to do with FPGA.
Just listening to two devs. talking about FPGA'S.  And how GPU mining will die because of FPGA'S. No fud.
In my opinion .... it comes down to hashes per watt.

Strong coins are already working on new algos to prevent fpga attack.

I strongly stand by the statement that there is no algorithm that is somehow going to be magically possible on GPUs but not possible on any FPGA hardware configuration. There is simply no resource to exploit unique to GPUs.

That doesn’t mean, however, that there will be a big performance gap. Honestly all these coins just stringing together a bunch of hashes to chain hash really looks to me like it will give a larger FPGA advantage vs the shockingly simple hash algorithms with no room for optimization’s.
