Why change the algo? You dont think people have GPU farms? If you want to get your hands on some IC, then buy it. The argument about asics being too expensive is stupid, you can buy a 580 MH scrypt miner for about $350.00, tha average GPU is $400.00, and the are shit tons of GPU farms that will rape this coin just as fast as every other algo...

No one argued that ASICs being expensive was the reason we switched. It does further decentralize us but it is 1 of many changes that we made to protect from 51% attacks, keep block times to 2minutes, and keep the pow/pos ratio at the proper ratio more consistently.
