Hello everybody!

I come here to ask some questions!

I am in IT license and we have a project of the end of year or we have to present a computer system ( a " machine " ) original with my group one to decide to make discover the ETH or the Bitcoin because we speak about it very current very in class)!

I know the bases of the mining, therefore, to limit the knocks I had the idea to mine(undermine) with Raspberry Pi 3 and on the verge of cards(maps) Asic nevertheless it is there that I need you.
I would like that my mining is profitable (the note will only be better because our professors channel already) I would have the objective to clear(release) a light profit (I me in madman of 300$ a month I am conscious that this period isover even if it is 5$ his would be a victory, I think of mining of the ETH.

But I have difficulty in calculating, and I owe you admit that we do not have a big material budget (the studies his pay not!) of the blow I would like to know if you would have a young setup lowcost with Raspberry Pi 3, 1 or 2 key, an ali ' and a small basic screen, just to enjoy rising quite his, it is me who accommodate the whole and I have one 20m²

Thank you in advance for your help!

I suggest you post this question in your your own language in your local subforum, and ask somebody to help you with a translation, because I really can't understand your question.

Im sorry for my anglish but i try ^^

This version is better ?


I am study and we project year-end or you must have a computer system  with my original group we decide to discover the Ethereum or Bitcoin since we talk a lot in class!

I know the basics of mining, thereby limiting the blows I had the idea to undermine with a Raspberry Pi 3 and the limit of Asic cards however this is where I need you.
I would like my mining profitable (the note will be better since our teachers already laughs) I would have the objective of achieving a small profit (I crazy of 300$ per month I am aware that this period is gone) even if its 5 $ would be a victory!

But I have trouble calculating, and I must admit that we do not have a big budget materials (studies her not paying!) Suddenly I wonder if you have a small setup lowcost based Raspberry Pi 3, 1 or 2 key, ali 'and a small basic screen, just to have fun assembling all his, I am hosting all and have a 20m² ^^

So, am I getting this correctly:

You are a student, and as a project you want to make a profitable mining setup using a raspberry pi...

To tell you the truth, to even have a tiny chance of making a profit, you'll need really cheap power, a free raspberry and a budget to either buy 1 or 2 decent GPUs, or a reasonably recent asic.


Can you tell us about your budget, power cost and hardware you already own/can get for free

You understood everything !

To have a good note my mining plant must be profitable , I live in France so the bitcoin is not profitable but at the ETH profitable air it, I have no starting material , I think I can invest about $ 80 / $ 100 at the beginning in my little setup

$100 won't get you very far I'm afraid.
You could try to buy a second hand antminer on this forum, but as a fellow European, I can pretty much guarantee they won't make any profit (we pay to much for our electricity).

Basically, if you spend $100 on mining gear, it might take you more than a year before you mined $100 worth of btc, and if you subtract the power cost you'll make negative profit.

I guess your best shot would be to buy a second hand GPU (read up on which GPUs to buy in the altcoin mining subforum).
It will be very difficult to make profit tough

You should focus on completing your assignment above all else. Is 'profiting'  a requirement of this project? Just buy a $5 USB miner and prove to the teacher/class that you know how to do it...worry about actual profits another time, because that'll cost you a lot of money up front, with very slow returns.
