Title: Crypto algorithm for better currency Post by: vnezapno on May 26, 2013, 02:06:19 PM I'm just wondering is there a a crypto algorithm that would be highly optimized even better then scrypt for opencl/cuda or even CPU calculations so that it would be very hard or unprofitable to make an asic for it.

You need CPU, RAM and IO bandwidth. Title: Re: Crypto algorithm for better currency Post by: vnezapno on June 19, 2013, 08:55:57 PM I don't think pure CPU-oriented algorithm is a good idea.
We should make use of excising hashing power of thousands of rigs thrown out of bitcoin mining by asics. |
