Title: Bitfury DIY
Post by: aauer1 on August 28, 2013, 08:50:11 PM
Hello

I wanted to know if anyone is interested in a DIY Bitfury USB miner. The miner would be similar to the USB block erupter but with more than 2gh/s of hash rate.
For me, it would be possible to supply only the PCB boards or do also the assembly (in small quantities).

A nice feature for developers is the open programming interface. So, if you think you are able to implement a better firmware which is more efficient or has some other nice features you can do that.

Right now, I only want to know if there are some people who would like to see such a project.

Cheers,
Andreas

And I think the open programming interface is a very nice feature which will help to get the maximum performance from the bitfury chip.
