Yes, the project has protection from asics.
But not from FPGA's, which is basicaly same thing like ASICs, since big farms got FPGA cards and private miners.
Changing algo to something like ProgPOW would be only solution IMO.

Progpow, Like ethash, is also working on fpgas..

The only real solution are Algo changes on a regular basis
I thought progpow was coded to use both memory and core clocks on gpu's so most of the gpu was used to mine this way fpga and asic wouldn't be as profitable you are by far more educated in this area than I am so could you explain how much more efficient fpga would be, I for one think fpga's are more centralized than asic because of the cost, shortage, and the dev fee's for the bitstreams
