Title: any ASICs after Terraminer IV? Post by: jk_14 on September 03, 2013, 09:48:43 AM It seems Terraminer and maybe Monarch - could close the door in mining hardware, for long time.
What do you think? P.S. not only "just for PM" question :) Title: Re: any ASICs after Terraminer IV? Post by: b!z on September 03, 2013, 09:56:45 AM Labcoin chips, might compete with blockerupter

Thinking there won't still be a race is naive. Not thinking a race would evolve new products is stupid. Only thing that can stop faster machines is if Bitcoin as a currency fails.
