Title: Build-a-Cryptofarm
Post by: Bitcoincy on March 26, 2018, 10:18:40 AM
I wanna build my first farm.
Not exclusively to Bitcoin, but all kinds of coins.
I saw once an idea of how it could be.
Like a birth-tree, this was build in wood, and there were 6 GPU's inserted, in seperate places.
I cannot find this, hard as I have looked.
So I have looked at these: https://www.buybitcoinworldwide.com/mining/hardware/ (https://www.buybitcoinworldwide.com/mining/hardware/), and honestly, I don't know how that works.

Today, I found the following article: https://www.coindesk.com/information/how-to-set-up-a-miner/ (https://www.coindesk.com/information/how-to-set-up-a-miner/)

I don't what a FPGA is, and it sounds like the ASIC one is Bitcoin only. That's why I wrote here in the first place.

Thanks in advance!

I wouldn't recommend you to mine or even build a Mining farm if you don't even know Mining Rigs and difference between FPGA or ASIC are.
You will most likely ended up wasting money and time on electricity costs and setting up your farm.
If you still insisted, you can ask your question on Mining Support for a better answer from someone who knows about mining
