Resistant to ASICs


Eh.... no.



+1.

Scrypt is not ASIC resistant anymore.

The terminology still stands. Notice it is not Asic-Proof but Asic-Resistant, offering higher resistant compared to traditional SHA-256. What you meant to say was Scrypt is not Asic-Proof anymore, but it is being resist-ive to some degrees against Asic.

If we are here to argue about the nitpicking details of what is Asic-Resistant, which is not the main topic or reason for this thread, then I suggest we should take a closer look of social issue at hand regarding the declining healthcare system in America and practical application of tele-medicine around the world, and how cryptocurrency can help overcoming barriers.
