Title: Litecoin FPGA mining possible? Post by: ZetaOS on October 16, 2013, 11:04:57 PM Can we mine Litecoins using FPGA units, like this one?

Yes, it is possible, there are lots of parties involve in developing the FPGA units, depends on which is the cheapest of all. Title: Re: Litecoin FPGA mining possible?

Hope they will come cheap.....and fast, litecoin is loosing more and more weight$$ Title: Re: Litecoin FPGA mining possible?

Just like what happen to Bitcoin and ASIC. Title: Re: Litecoin FPGA mining possible?

By the way that FPGA for Litecoin is not worth it as you can by 8 7950's that will give you more hashrate and with only cost roughly $1500 if you get them for a relatively good price and $400 is miscellaneous computer hardware. So its half the price for more performance. Not to mention the resale on computer hardware is way better and 2,000 savings buys a LOT of power. Title: Re: Litecoin FPGA mining possible?

Not the case any more, Litecoin price have been dropping but the difficulty still stuck at about 1000. |
