I suppose that's one way to interpret that conversation.
Its pretty straight forward. You stated public information on how they work, etc. Then you stated no longer ASIC resistance instead we will need an 80% Vote to fork ASICs off, which everyone knows cant occur if there is a private or public ASIC farm on the network.
No, I said that there isn't enough evidence to make a snap decision to fork, and asked if you had more info that could be used to investigate the claim, which you have not provided. An immediate decision to fork would require a community consensus vote right now, but that isn't the only way to handle a centralized ASIC dominant hashrate if that is proven to exist in the future.
You never asked if i had info to investigate. I didnt say an immediate decision to fork, i stated the Devs will not fork away ASICs unless they became publicly available which is what you confirmed. You stated unless i had exact information on the ASIC (how it was done, etc.) then i have no proof. Other large community members statements that an ASIC is produced is "not proof", Chinese Mining Chats stating there are ASICs are "not proof". Your method of Proof is that it would need to go public. Also you stated 80% is required to fork ASICs off, which would not be doable with ASICs on the network. You proved everything i stated originally that Devs will not do anything until potentially ASICs are available for sale, but now you went even further to perform a Zooko and are now pretty much stating ASICs will not be forked off because the hashrate wont be able to do it.
Ok, if you say so. Of course, in your screenshot above I do happen to state that if you have any additional info, I would pass it to the devs, and in discord 19 minutes after your screenshot ends I specifically asked for more info so that your concerns could be investigated. It seems that there is some misrepresentation of what I have said, but I suppose that is par for the course.
How about this, what info is supposedly required for you? I gave you info that it has been talked about in chinese mining chats, same chats that talked about lyra asics months before public info that people said i was lying about. Also that GPUHoarder, who your team could talk to too, has confirmed X16R Asics. What info do you specifically want, because its probably something that is not available or your looking for a website/statement from the users saying they are running them.
