Ravencoin aims to implement To avoid centralized ASIC mining of RavenCoin the developers created a blockchain which new algorithm, x16r. This algorithm is unique because the order of the 16 hashing algorithms is optimized specifically for constantly changed based on the use case hash of transferring assets such as tokens from one holder the previous block. This randomness of hashing algorithms makes it reasonably resistant to anotherASIC development.
