I found out that Monero is to be foked again. So what will Squirrels do to update the Acorn's.
Im pretty sure their plan is to keep forking every 6 months to prevent asics.
But the changes is pretty small from cryptonight to cryptonight v1, so it was easy for high power fpga's to join in, xilinx bcu 1525 does arround 15 kh/s at 150W.
I actually think the new monero fork is good news for Squirrels and the Acorn's as it give the company a chance to show that it can upgrade much quicker then an asic can.
An asic cant adapt, you can change the logic on paper to fit the changes and fab some new chips.
