How's it ignorant, when it's true Huh

Because, it's literally not true. There is, literally, no more "resistance" in a setting that requires x more RAM when there is still a massive cost effectiveness increase over GPUs.

As I said earlier, professional miners will be happy to pay 10x the current ASIC price to increase the RAM in ASICs and the miners will still have increased profits over GPUs. It's nothing more than hyperbole that declares that a larger RAM requirement is a "resistance" factor for ASICS that are nearly 14x the hash rate, use 1/10th of the electric, and cost 1/14th the price of GPUs. If adding RAM raised the price by 10x, ASICs would still be 1/4 the price of GPUs, use 1/10th the electric, take up less than 1/20th of the space, and have 14x gains per setup.

Apologies to EWBF for "hijacking" the thread, but it's a closely linked topic (if nothing else) and I abhor mis/disinformation.
