If the miners are so evil, why don't BTC change the PoW to an asic resistant algorithm like Vertcoin's?

Why would the miners fuck themselves over like that?

> asic resistant
There is no such thing pajeet. asic means application specific integrated chip. Any algo apart from NP hard problems can have an asic developed for it. You can counter by increasing the need for access to thing like L3 cache which cpu's are already pretty good at but ultimately you cant stop them from being developed.

Whats going on in this pic. I need sauce

People like you are the reason people like me make good shekels

Probably some graduation shit going down in Sweden, "Team Sportia" on the guys shorts is a dead giveaway. And for graduation the kids do crazy shit naked in competitions.

Maybe the muslim invasion isn't such a bad thing

Why? You hate nudity?

You're some first year comp sci babby aren't you?
He said asic resistant. Not proof.

THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS ASIC RESISTANCE, CRYPTOIS DOOMED POW IS TRASH

t.nigger

>make asic for algo
>coin changes PoW algo
what now?

You are retarded

Fucking degenerate Euromutts

At which point nudity became degeneracy ? Go neck yourself frustrated fat fuck

>At which point nudity became degeneracy
After 2800 calories a day.

This I can agree on

In fact BTC needs to change to PoS if it wants to remain relevant in a few years.

Kek, this fucking guy over here...

>euromutt
haha so cute when you're angry
this is like when vegancucks started adopting the term meatcuck, which makes absolutely no fucking sense, it just shows how buttmad they are
or when lefties unironically started calling people with opposing views snowflakes

when it's on public display for no purpose at all, degeneuro

>unironically living in the 18th century

Your grandchildren are going to be half ahmed

has nothing to do with the time period. degeneracy is a fashion, and in a way people in the 18th were more degenerate than nowadays

sorry but I live in a white ethnostate with strict border control

yeah you could make a coin that slightly shifts the hardware requirement to more memory or more gpu as it's difficulty adjusts. it would be very hard to purpose build hardware for it other than an actual gpu.

when u die and go to heaven that pic minus the dudes is what awaits you bros.

off by 6 kinobi

PoW has 10 years of security testing. PoS is far too dangerous to rely the network on at the moment. Maybe in the distant future BTC can switch when PoS proves secure

FUCKING BASED BRO

It becomes an arms race between the coin's developer and ASIC chinks.

Yeah obviously PoS isn't ready yet but once ETH implements it and fixes the non-obvious mistakes there should be no reason to stay with PoW.

its a weak proposition. firstly, you have to somehow create a decentralised governance model that always agrees on the new algo or you will get multiple chain splits each time algo changes which reduces trust in the coin. secondly, how do you trust that the new algo proposition isnt some kind of inside job in which an asics was being developed for the past several months. the only way to fix it is to find game theoretic model that takes the incentive away from mining rewards. iota is a pretty good example of this desu.
