In Q3 we will have SCRYPT / SCRYPT-N ASIC.
Soon we will start taking pre-orders.
You guys see this? Seems legit.
It seems no one care, because ASICs will never mine Vertcoin. Regardless of algo. Dev will change algo in case of some nasty ASIC on the horizon.

This whole scenario has been planned out and discussed among the community
long ago.
VTC will get forked and there will be a lot of
unhappy ASIC Scrypt-N owners.
I would only see it doing well for VTC. After forking, news will break out that the developers mean it when they say ASIC resistance. ASIC customers hoping to mine VTC will spread their despairs, ultimately self-promoting Vertcoin.
This isn't a dedicated Scrypt-N miner, customers will be paying for an Scrypt miner that happens to mine Scrypt-N as a bonus. I know if I bought one, I would mine VTC, especially if it was more profitable on that day. You may not care but don't blame me when the diff starts rising while the price is falling. This think WILL hit market, and when it does we need to be ready. All this talk about VTC beating ASIC, but "no one cares". Not very inspiring.
