Would Kaspa change its mining algorithm to block ASICs?

Community discussion on the Kaspa wiki argues that ASIC miners should be welcomed, not blocked through algorithm changes. ASICs are specialized chips built for one purpose — in this case, mining a specific cryptocurrency. Producing them demands a tremendous amount of capital across multiple stages: design, tapeout (preparing the chip layout for manufacturing), die fabrication, and hashboard production. Because that investment barrier is so high, a party willing to go through all of it to mine Kaspa is making a serious commitment — which community members see as a reason to welcome ASICs rather than fight them. For a beginner, this matters because it means the Kaspa community has publicly discussed keeping the door open to professional-grade mining hardware, rather than algorithmically locking it out the way some other proof-of-work projects do.
