I agree that this is a necessary and impressive step of the project. I don't know if the coin is to change your algorithm or mine beneficial just for asic?
IMHO there a huge quantity of anonymous coins on the market, and in some countries, they are under restriction. So I don't believe in fork without revolution tech.
Anonymity is not the star here. Revolution tech is already happening with "uncle mining" in test net, ready to be deployed to the end of Q3, and blocktree sharding next. Some people do not really read before they cast their opinions.
I started to read about Masari and I can say I like what I see. Let's see if Cryptopia and Uncle Mining will bring a new wave of investors. Good luck, team!
Masari's first AMA (ask me anything) with the core team will take place on r/masari July 28 at 2p EST. The thread will open up on the 27th for questions.
I am holding Aeon for ages...but it is being driven by the Asic's these days and there is no re-base forseen in the near future. Meanwhile i will turn my attention to other good Cryptonight coins like Graft and Masari. So, where i can buy some ?
