Cryptonote asic miner?

[xGravity]

Hi there,

i would like to know if there are any cryptonote asic miners like for scrypt etc. coins?
I was not able to find any "working proff" of a real cryptnote asic miner.

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong but I believe ASIC is application specific for SHA256 only. So Asic miners work with Bitcoin and other sha256 coins only (such as peercoin).

Ok thank you very much, i also was sure that there would not be a working cryptonote miner.

ASICs have been made for other algorithms as well, such as Scrypt (ex. Litecoin) and X11 (ex. Dash) , but that happened over time so maybe ASICs will be created for CryptoNote (ex. Monero) and Zcash in the future (or maybe they are truly ASIC-proof).

There are currently no CryptoNote ASIC miners available on the market, there's the Panda miner out there though.
