Future of Zcash mining (circa 2019 and 2020)

Gamers! During their off-time, I bet they would love to mine. Plus, GPU has a natural use case - if it does get exploited, it will lead to a VR space race. Double-win for gamers!

Network on the other hand is proven to be the most fair play. it attracts enthusiasts all over the world. small miners, who do not care so much about anything than joy from process. they do not panic sell, they do not fix profits every week. in other words they do not drive value down, instead they create reliable ecosystem.
that is why so many projects went, and keep going anti-asic, specifically gpu, cause it is driven by enthusiasm, not roi. because gpu producers do not have intentions to make the most out of crypto by manipulating hardware prices according to btc rate, secretly mining, playing funny games with difficulty, pools, etc, etc, etc…

If the proof of research like system described above were ascribed and the PoW for solving discrete logs described in the pdf above to replace equihash (though it kinda doesnt totally replace it does it), there would be not many devices AT ALL that could not earn Zcash
Chain 1 is driven by all kinds of asics and chain 2 by everything else just about (32 bit 'n all)
(Yea its a double negative whatever)
