The one thing that would be really nice to be able to get happening is to integrate merge mining so we can get some free hash power to reduce the vulnerability of the chain, but I'm not sure what's involved with that exactly. I know several sha256d and scrypt coins based on bitcoin have this, so it might not be so difficult to integrate.
I'm not aware of any multi-algo coins that allow merge mining. DUO would be the first if you could pull this off?

Be ready for "Monero Classic" cause you know it's gonna happen.
I'm not well conversant with Ethereum and Ethereum Classic (apart from they got hacked due to flaw and decided to hard fork, but am unsure why the old coin was required to be still in circulation), but why would you think there would be "Monero Classic". Wouldn't all demand be for Monero - and who would be responsible for Classic version, which if I'm not wrong would not be v7 or basically current version open to Asics?
Why wouldn't there be? It's not about the tech. It's quite simple really ... in matters such as these there will always be a conflict of opposed ideas or attitudes or goals. A difference of opinion.
Let me also add...If/when Monero forks to a new algorithm, if it is indeed a profitable coin, ASICS will be made. This is inevitable. Then what...? Another fork?
Time to get realistic.
I thought Monero do the hard fork every 6 months which would further make things difficult to constantly produce new ASICs
Forking every six months... That's downright hilarious
Miners and regular users will have to constantly update their wallet and/or miner software. Not only will it be a pain for the average user especially if they don't understand how forks work, it creates more work for exchanges, and forums and other support vectors will suffer because of this since they will helping all these average users through all their troubles.
The claim and the reasoning behind constant forking is to avoid "ASIC centralization." This is still a concern? Bitcoin (as an example) is almost 10 years old and people are still worried about "ASIC centralization?" Really...?

Re: [ANN] [PXC] Phoenixcoin v0.6.6.1 ~ NeoScrypt Original ~ 4 Years Old
For some reason the maxconnections config option doesn't work. ghostlander...known?
I have 75 connections right now. 120 connections on the largest seed node.
What makes you think the maxconnections option doesn't work? The number of outbound connections is limited to 16, so maxconnections - 16 is the limit for inbound connections.
I have maxconnections=12
My connections should be no more than 28 then if I understand you correctly (16 out + 12 in).
maxconnections is a sum of inbound and outbound connections. Setting them to 12 isn't a good idea probably.
And that's what I thought originally. So back to my original statement. The maxconnections config option doesn't work and apparently it is not know with you (ghostlander). Should I file a bug ticket or do we not care?
It works for numbers like 50. There are more important things to take care of. I'll add it to my to do list though.
Absolutely low priority. I certainly appreciate it.
