CPU algo as randomX are infested by botnets, I would urge the devs to rethink using GPU algo
Certainly! RandomX is compatible with GPUs. It is a CPU-oriented algorithm designed to be resistant to ASIC mining and optimized for CPU mining. However, there are also implementations and optimizations available for GPU mining. So, RandomX can be used effectively on both CPUs and GPUs, providing miners with flexibility in choosing their preferred hardware for mining.
But that doesn't take care of the botnet's.  Smiley

I understand your concern. Initially, the testnet will start with RandomX, but we will take into account the issue of botnets when considering the algorithm for the mainnet. It is worth mentioning that we have the foundation of the cryptocurrency programmed using multiple algorithms. In the event that we decide to start the mainnet with RandomX, we will open the decision to change it to the community. We appreciate your feedback and are committed to taking steps to address any security-related issues.
