lots of people claim that Bitcoin's mining algorithm is unfair because ASIC has definite advantages over other chips. So, what can be the most fair algorithms that maximizes decentralization of mining?

I'm also not sure. However there are lots of altcoins claiming they use more fair mining algorithms – Yangrui Nov 29 '16 at 16:33
