Cool, so then that invalidates the ASIC problem, right?

My earlier idea was to imagine that each day Anubis picks an entirely different problem-class. Ex: one day it is Sha256, the next it is prime factorization, the next it is twin-prime-finding, the next it is cracking elliptic curves, the next it is some kind of sorting / information theory problem...

All with the goal of adapting constantly so that scrapers have a harder time optimizing for the PoW problem (i.e. with Sha256 ASICs)
