The coin RavenCoin is an open source project built on a fork of the bitcoin code. RavenCoin aims to implement a blockchain which is optimized specifically for the use case of transferring assets such as tokens from one holder to another.

To avoid centralized ASIC mining of RavenCoin the developers created a new algorithm, x16r. What makes this This algorithm is unique is because the order of the 16 hashing algorithms is constantly changed based on the hash of the previous block. This randomness of hashing algorithms makes it reasonably resistant to ASIC development. A more detailed explanation of the algorithm can be found [https://ravencoin.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/X16R-Whitepaper-3.pdf here]

This randomness of hashing algorithms makes it reasonably resistant to ASIC development. The developers have stated they are committed to keeping it ASIC free and can easily alter the algorithm if an ASIC official website is developed[http://www.ravencoin.org RavenCoin. org]
