Phil, had a chance to look at the algo chances suggested by @ohgodagirl? interesting stuff

Just in case that someone doesnt know whats this about here is the link where you can check it out

their group is the one who released the "ETH largement pill" for cards with gddr5x...they know how to utilize gddr5x gpu rams......1080ti's here we go again! hehe

I spoke to the Dev of progpow and I love their approach. It's not about ASIC resistance but closing the loopholes that make ASICS faster and more efficient. The proposal was posted on the ETH GitHub and I strongly suspect that people were bought by ASIC manufacturers, just read the comments... It's sad. However they have a working algo and miner so anyone could fork and start using it. Unfortunately x16r is not exactly ASIC resistant either, there is a whole list of projected ASIC speed gains over GPUs and yes, we are screwed with the current algos. As much as I don't like ethash I gotta admit it was still the most ASIC resistant algo. (Only 2x gain on ASIC)
Hash rates with progpow:

RX580 | 9.4 | | Vega56 | 16.6 | | Vega64 | 18.7 | | GTX1070Ti | 13.1 | | GTX1080 | 14.9 | | GTX1080Ti | 21.8 |

There is hope for the resistance!
