Semi-ASIC project for ASIC proof coins

[ehm.emre]

Hello everyone,

I'm Emre. I'm newbie First of all sorry for my bad English.

We have a team work on FPGA projects. We interested in altcoins for a 5-6 months. Especially asic-proof coins. There is a lot of altcoin and says "We are ASIC-proof". Arrow. Well.

How about this idea:
Semi-ASICs. What is this? It has a real graphics card and a cooperate FPGA hash booster in standard PC motherboard. And work with together. Estimated hash boost capability 5x to 12x (depend algorithm) with little power compsution (15-25 watts).
We are working with Xilinx ZYNQ series FPGA and we designed a hardware for custom co-operate PCI card. First result is good. We test it with ethereum minig.

I will share news here.

Thank you.

Sounds good! So when can we get our hands on it? I could do a review on a prototype for you?

[Vaccinus]

are these things capable of switching algo? if yes this will be huge, and will kill gpu mining once for all, if not they will not be different than asic, not interested in this case

well done.How about FPGA ethereum mining speed?and How much?

[bittawm]

keep me in the loop

[Golku]

Will follow this closely

Basarilar!!

[ramroom]

Awesome! Keeping my eye out for any progress, keep us posted!

[kr105]

This looks quite big (if real), I will keep a close eye on this.

[DebitMe]

What kind of speeds are you seeing on Eth?  What does one cost to manufacture?

[YIz]

Would love to see the speeds to get out of this ASIC. I don't think it's going to be very successful with dagger.

Kind of frightening for all the people who invested tens of thousands in gpu's.

Their problem.

It's an unstable and risky market, and people only love to share success story, never how much they lost.

How many times do you ever read "I lost so much money on.." in crypto world?

Rarely.

Yet I know plenty of people that bought Digibyte at ATH and now want to kill themselves over it (it's an exxageration obviously).

Or people that bought gpus and gpus for litecoin and bitcoin and then got asicced.

It's an unstable and risky market, and people only love to share success story, never how much they lost.

You don't hear how much people lose from GPU mining these days because people don't lose from GPU mining these days. With so many coins to choose from,  there's always coins that brings in good money - especially now when they're at extra high value. But even long before this current boom, it was still very profitable.

So no, you don't hear about how much people lose from GPU mining these days because people don't lose from GPU mining these days.

Nice job man

If you need some testing, please contact me

[woogod]

Watching closely!

Yardım lazım mı? 


Good job. Waiting to hear from you.

Then you utilize the FPGA for some calculations?

Not at all; I've been doing this for a while on Xilinx 7-Series chips. It's good, but not AWESOME.

FPGAs should be good for ZEC, but not for ETH.  As you already know, GPUs can push the RAM to >90% of it's theoretical maximum bandwidth mining ETH, so there is little speed gains to be had.
Besides ZEC, you should also be able to easily beat AMD GPUs mining XMR.

Interesting to see the results.
