So I heard that a simple firmware update can match the current algo fork made to stay anti asic.
Is this true? If so, the war is over..asic wins?
Let me spell it out for you.
ASIC
Application Specific Integrated Circuit.
Essentially, an FPGA bitstream HARD COPY. Meaning no FIRMWARE... It is literally a printed integrated circuit that cannot be changed.
So no... No firmware help for you.
