What you guys think, can this be correct?

Q: What's the hashing performance for Scrypt-N?
A: Each Scryptr chip can achieve about 1MH/s performance for Scrypt-N (N=2048) for coins such as Vertcoin. Hence for Neon C08, the Scrypt-N performance is 2MH/s.

Hi Guys

This is interesting but by no means alarming, I have just spoken with the rest of the team and here are our thoughts.

Vertcoin has never claimed its impossible for ASICs to mine Nfactor it does however make it more difficult, with that said Vertcoin has said that it will do everything in its powers to remain ASIC resistant.

We have a number of measures in our arsenal to stop these ASICs in their tracks, could they spend a year and invest millions to mine Vertcoin? the answer is probably yes, in response would we change Vertcoin to make the time and investment worthless? most definitely yes.

We could hard fork now and make these claims redundant but we think that its best to keep our cards to our chest and keep them second guessing, this isnt bravado this is protecting all of our investments and helping to maximise our strategy that continues to be keeping vert coin ASIC resistant.

Paul talks on this matter in his recent interview with David Seaman so check it out.

Keep holding on to your nuggets and enjoy the ride.

Best

I don't know how many times we have to publicly say "VTC will hardfork if necessary to keep ASICs out" - we must have said it a hundred times!

I'll say it again, in case repetition number 101 will help - VTC will hardfork if that every becomes necessary to keep ASICs out. This isn't LTC, we're not going to suddenly decide to give up and capitulate in the face of a need to hardfork, we will do whatever is necessary to keep VTC decentralised and in part that means excluding ASICs by whatever means necessary.

VIVA LA VERT! :-)
