x11 is not a good asic deterrent, some companies claim that they are secretly developing a scrypt-n asic too, probably bullshit for now, but it could be a reality soon

vertcoin guys claim that they will change the factor to an even higher one(this n-factor changing cannot be played for long), but this will reduce gpu efficiency too, which is not a good thing.

jackpot/heavycoin/aiden algo are just different ramifications of x11..

pure pos are not bad imho, but distribution need to be clear

we need something really new, but personally i don't care because i don't mine for 24/7 but only at launch, and at launch if you come first you can beat monsters hash
