I think Scrypt ASICs are pretty cost prohibitive, because even if the amount of design hours were the same as the SHA-256 ASIC, the amount of specialized RAM required to run Scrypt meaningfully is SUPER expensive lol. I know of a few scrypt FPGAs in existence, but their owners have demonstrated worse performance on an FPGA than even a CPU. The bottlenecks are with RAM interfacing for sure, which is something that few people in the world have the time and skill to do right now. However, I think that FPGAs are rapidly becoming the future to hard computation problems as their price drops many fold from just a few years ago. Much like solar panels, they are becoming the cheap, resource conscious way to solve problems. Further, mining scrypt to me makes more sense than SHA-256. SHA is a dinosaur algorithm these days, so much so that Bitcoin has had to scale network difficulty to astronomical heights to compensate for how fast devices can hash it. It was also created by the Department of Defense... Scrypt however relies on 1024 rounds of the scrambling function Salsa20, which was made by the literal computer wizard Dan J Bernstein. If anything, we should mine scrypt as a testament as to how good of a function Salsa20 is. It brings recognition to one of the best cryptographers in the world who is also actively promoting the public's interest in cryptography over the government's.

Whoever owns that site needs to make it possible for long texts to be entered... Finnish has no regard for word order so it should be as easy as copy and pasting! -

Yup should be mine! I publish everything under my own name, but I think some people also repost my writings as well. Unfortunately, some people acting on my advice last week bought MNC above 002 and I feel a bit bad, but it was impossible for me to predict the BTC explosion. Plus, MNC is worth more today in fiat terms than it was last week, so I still wasn't wrong at least -
This whale has the market by the throat!

Imagine if someone used their fiat to make a crypto competitor to Steam by buying game licenses? Damn that would be huge.

There is actually a rather good Finnish translator on the web somewhere, I think it's here if i remember: http://www.fincd.com/ -
Good luck Sammy! We're here to help at any time. Welcome to the forum ^.^

Yes that's correct, I've written an article about why I think it's a bubble http://www.josephshanahan.com/willbitcoinreach1000.html

Welcome to the forum and the coin, and thank you for taking a liking to the quote! I came across it in a song from the Finnish band Moonsorrow- it's called "Kuolleiden Maa". If it has further reach than that song, I'd like to hear about it. -
Necom was expressing interest in this the other day, I think you should check out this thread if you can help him with some info: http://mincoinforum.com/index.php/topic/87-mnc-or-other-crypto-e-commerce-plugins-modules/?hl=payment
