Literally every single time someone has created an "asic resistant" algo over the last 15 years it has turned out to be false.
Bitmain X5 is a randomx asic that already exists.

Enlighten me on how it works.
DYOR, I don't care enough. I've seen this over and over again, asic resistant algorithms are in the same category as free energy machines.
Or let me enlighten you: it doesnt, it's just a good cpu
Weaponized ignorance.
Every generation of ASIC-resistant algos has been more resistant than the last.
RandomX is so close to Turing-complete that no viable ASIC has emerged less complex than a CPU.
This is what a 100% win rate looks like
When it was first released it was apparently twice as efficient as a normal CPU at randomx.
In any case, I would not bet against a massive black budget being able to build a more efficient randomx solver.
