Makes no sense to me why anyone should be excited about coins moving to RandomX. The cost per added hashrate for RandomX is so much higher than that for a GPU mineable coin and if you think the network hashrate of a RandomX coin will be low, think again. Just take a look at the Loki network hashrate as an example of what's in store for all CPU mineable coins. It's 71 MH vs 11KH from a single Ryzen 3900X!! How many Ryzen 3900X do you need to make enough coins to ROI?

Guess you are late to discussion, as RandomX as well as others options were discussed to exhaustion months ago:

Unlike zcash, eth & others that have done absolutely nothing when their networks got overtaken by ASICs.

Monero is moving forward by implementing RandomX, properly tested and audited (https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/ckhuq9/randomx_audit_status_final/).
