Theres a lot you dont know about asics if the last one you bought was in 2015. I mine on gpus too, i dont hate them , i just know their beat. They are inefficient and becoming more obsolete every month. Cn7 is already being mined on FPGAs. Unforkable FPGAs should be a gpu miners worst nightmare once they hit in numbers, not asics.

Do you think coin devs have the money and the time to keep forking over and over, just to keep die hard gpu miners happy? they will inevitably give in, their projects goals will come first. They get paid either way with the block reward. If they dont like it they can switch to x16r/s.

Dont you think cpu miners had the same beef with gpu s ruining their profits back at the start of the decade. Everyone has a cpu, but not everyone has a killer gpu or 6. Gpu s are still overpriced and gamers hate the lot of ya. If asics wont destroy gpu mining then FPGAs definately will.

Most people dont care about manufacturer centralization , they dont mine for free just to support a decentralized network , they mine for a profit , with the most profitable pool on the most profitable hardware whoever hosts or makes it they dont care. If they do support a network that isnt the most profitable then they just expect an even bigger profit when they dump their coins on a pump and move on.

A quick buck is an illusion?, tell that to early x3 owners, their laughing and probably even thanking downrampers like you who scared off a majority of potential buyers of the x3, reducing difficulty and increasing their profits, theyd be close to ROI if not already and they could still sell their rig for a profit. Yes s*** will hit the fan on the 30th but by then everything they mine will be complete profit or soon to be even if it isnt much.

In a perfect world it would be great if asics and fpgas didnt exist. But they do, so adapt or live with it.

I have PLENTY of friends with S9's and L3's as well dude. A good friend of mine has total of 300 S9's and L3's who also GPU mines. I'm familiar with ASIC's full well. Exactly what has changed that I'm ignorant of? They are pretty much plug and play. ROFL...

I'm familiar with FPGA's as well. I'm currently looking into them now.

Just Because some don't care about centralization means simply ignoring it; give up and don't educate people?

I'm done responding to your insanity. You THINK your response has merit and is supposed to somehow refute the insanity I said you're in? You will wake up to the grand illusion you due time.

So adapt and live with it once the RED PILL is forced down your throat. It's a LOT easier if you will take it willingly. It appears you're going to have it forced fed down your throat in due time and you're NOT going to like it.

Your looking into FPGAs? To buy them i assume.. Your a hypocrite!
