When will the algo change , against the ASICS?

I'm with you on that.  We need a fork QUICK!!!  The current network hash rate is approximately 74.5 MH/s.  It was up to 95 MH/s earlier.  This is PAINFUL indeed.  I have 60 x NVIDIA 1080 TI.  Half of which are EVGA 1080 Ti KingPins.  All of my NVIDIA's are EVGA.  They've seen much brighter days.  This is depressing indeed.
....

The increase in hashrate here is nothing compared to what DERO, a cryptonight coin, experienced after the introduction of CN ASICs - it went from 4-6MH/s to as high as 2000MH/s... yes, a ~500x increase. Now it's running at closer to 200MH/s, mainly because of some massively bad decisions on the part of the devs* and because both SUMO and ETN forked back to ASIC-friendly CNv0.


* - namely, they lied about forking to block ASICs and when source code would be released, alienating all but a handful of their long time supporters.
