Merkle Tree Proofs ASIC Resistance Egalitarian mining and the proof-of-work algorithm (PoW) makes ASIC resistance worth the pursuit. The algorithm, called Merkle Tree Proofs, is one that Zcoin seems to believe in and states that it is “premature” to give up this early on in the game. There are many reasons for ASIC resistance. The […]
