Hi.

I'm looking for sw/hw to use on my RPi if I would like to mine:

  • Bitcoin
  • Litecoin
  • Dogecoin

If I search the internet I only get old info about this. So I was thinking if a kind soul could help me out here.

Thank you very much.

I can't help you there but what I do know is that you do not want to mine algos that already have ASICs. All the coins you mentioned have ASICs which are super efficient.

You should probably aim to mine CPU-only or GPU-only coins.

Not your keys, not your coins!

Your Raspberry Pi is not even powerful enough to run a web-browser so how the hell do you want it to mine altcoins Cheesy ? Try to mine newly released CPU-mined crypto-currencies, but even there you might not end up with interesting results. But what is sure is forget about anything such as Bitcoin, Litecoin, Dogecoin, Ethereum and so.
