So after being burned trying to get a Dash miner, a UPS employee stole it. (I'm now suing UPS for the costs) And the monopoly of Baikal and Pinidea on Dash script, I'd say my opinion has turned anti-ASIC. I will not use a coin that is ASIC mined. It is against the fundamental principles of decentralization.
You have one crap company that controls all new BTC, Antminer. They charge what they want and they sell to whom they want. Two companies control Dash, though Pinidea is losing fast. Not a lot of variety in Litecoin miners as well. BTC was released to be CPU mined. GPU mining didn't centralize it but ASIC mining did. These ASIC mining coins will eventually be too centralized to use.
How can we solve this? Should we boycott these coins until they add ASIC resistance to their algos? Too late for BTC, but it's been too late for BTC for a while. Could we force other core teams to update their code?
I understand your mean, but you need know Asic very easy control a large number of device than GPU hardware! Not need more time to care and inspection
Example: You have 1 Million Dollar can invest to buying a large number of hardware mining, with Asic you just buying and find a place to running 24/24 not need care error about Mainboard and Fan, only need you can uninterruptible power supply to operate, better than GPU!
