Is scrypt actually recommended? When I think of scrypt, I think of the Litecoin and the numerous "altcoins" that use scrypt that were forked from Litecoin in late 2013/early 2014.
I know that Litecoin used scrypt to harden it against GPU/ASIC mining, but GPU/ASIC miners ended up coming out anyways. With this in mind, is scrypt actually a better option than bcrypt?
