RE: First ethereum ASIC miner unleashed: the end of GPU mining yet again

in #bitcoin • 8 years ago

Good post. It will be interesting if code is implemented to 'brick' the miners - similar to what Monero have done in the past...
I did a post about it if interested?

      Thanks, I checked out your post. I believe Vitalik mentioned the possibility in the past but recently said that the Ethereum dev team's efforts were better spent on pushing Casper

          Makes sense - I was surprised to see an ASIC for Ethereum because of PoS/Casper. Would have been nice to see it bricked like Monero have just done though
