What is so hard to understand?

I said it doesn't work because the mining process becomes more difficult for everybody. As some guy here said, GPUs wont be able to cope and eventually the only miners will be ASIC with larger memory

This.  Looking at the code, that's part of the reason hash rates are half of what normal scrypt coins get.  When the next Nfactor tick kicks in, hash rates will cut in half again.

Worse yet, when that next Nfactor tick hits, all of those currently working settings that everybody has optimized for all their cards will start killing cards like the normal scrypt settings are for the current Nfactor.

Sure, it's ASIC-proof, but it'll end up being GPU-proof in just a tick or two as well.

It doesn't work. The mining process simply becomes more difficult for everybody mining the coin when the 'Asic prevention' kicks in.

Wrooong. It's already ASIC proof against any scrypt asic that's why verts hashrate right now is just 50% of litecoins.
Also the schedule isn't fixxed, the devs can always fork if asics WOULD come for a specific N before N changes which would render them useless and would be a huge money waste because they couldn't mine a day.
It is and will be asic proof.

We'll have moved to something much better?
What do you think should be done better?
If you have constructive cirtics to improve this coin just tell us your ideas. VTC is open to changes.

Right now I see no problems with Vertcoin technically.

OH MY GOD.

Went to sleep really happy last night about the price etc only to wake up to see someone hacked my Cryptsy and stole all my 350 vtc i've been working really hard on for the past 2 weeks.. My e-mail has also been hacked apparently..

dude VTC is far from innovative. Asic prevention will only kick in in about two years, according to the chart on the OP (lol.) By then we will have moved on seomthing much better
I fail to see why ppl arent dumping it.

"Adaptive N-Factor" such BS branding. oh lawd

Anyone got good settings for a 270X?
Using  -w 256 --thread-concurrency 8192 -I 12 at the moment. Getting 150KH/s.

270X should be able to get a bit higher KH/s, right? Like 180 or something?

Haven't received one for 3 hours and 30 min now..

And still no payout.  What gives?

Note that the hashrate he mentions refers to litecoin

Never thought this late in the game I'd be buying GPUs, but, well, here I am.

Yes I do appreciate the open for discussion approach taken in altcoin world. I get it,
But you would do well to keep it one sided in public. Take the views in, and discuss in private rather than debate with public.

Price is fifty percent off the highs since your very important announcement and you have an open debate on whether the miners will just fork off with a new coin and then wtf am I holding?

Shut up and implement the changes and stop talking about implementing changes. 

No disrespect intended. Markets do not like uncertainty and every buyer is relying on you to know what you are doing. Exude total confidence in your product. Don't talk, act, improve and disregard the noise. 

Vertcoin is a winner. Don't fuck it up. Thanks...
