i wouldnt be surprised if ASIC of some kind hit the market soon enough  
the developers took a month to get z-addr working properly  
they were wrong about it being CPU only minable  
they will probably be wrong about it only being GPu minable  
total incompetence as I see it now  
the developers and the funders…  
what kind of retard keeps 500K worth of crypto online… give me a break
