I dont know what the devs want to implement.

For GPU mining imho a good thing is multi-POW like myriadcoin.

Myriadcoin released some merge mining with their chain, see https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=725991.0 and http://coinbrief.net/myriadcoin-merge-mining/

To attack such a chain 51% shall be had on 3/5 algo at same time. Scrypt can be kept, then 3 GPU algo then scrypt-N or a new one from FTC or VTC why not.

It is just my opinion, I dont know if we shall change something... Smiley

What is happening about the hashing algorithm?  Dogecoin which has a much higher hashrate than Anoncoin is moving to AuxPoW with Litecoin to help strengthen their network and avoid an attack on their network.  If the community doesn't want to merge-mine with Litecoin have you thought about switching to a new hashing algorithm?  Like either the new one Vertcoin or Feathercoin is choosing.  There's a lot of Scrypt ASIC's out there now and one biggish miner could easily pull off a 51% attack on Anoncoin for LoLz.  I'd personally prefer the coin to AuxPoW with Feathercoin so that I could fire my 280X OC up  Grin
