Why would people attack this coin?
Do they target all scrypt coins and try to make double spend attacks?
Or is it noble that get a special treatment for some reason?
I think we have some enemies, probably the same people who are involved in the scam coins and see us as a threat.
My opinion is that we should stay with scrypt, inevitably this will happen with any algo. The only way to not have this happen is to constantly switch algos,
which is a crap idea.
I think there will only be a temporary spare of attacks, then the "good side" will catch up in terms of hash power.
Please explain why that is a crap idea? Without it the fork comes anyway unless you have not noticed. at least with changing with the times we control how the fork is handled.
Well the way I see it (and I am aware that I am not that experienced), if you fork to a certain flavour, and then an ASIC is developed for that, you would have to then fork again to avoid ASICs.
To me this shows weakness and that the coin is scared and running from change rather than embracing it. It also shows that the devs are a little too trigger happy to fork the coin and that it could potentially mean that they unknowingly fork to an untested method and ruin everything.
ASICs are inevitable and I think that us weathering the storm and fighting back, rather than running would be the sensible and strong thing to do.
