Scriptor Solo - 25KHs at 5W Scrypt FPGA in a USB dongle

[beekeeper]

Hi,
This is a spinoff from my RAM based FPGA LTC miner.

The device is packed as a USB dongle and it can be powered from bus. It uses 5W for 25Kh/s, half of what GPU use.
For better performance, we also designed a 8 cores board which produce 240KHs.

nice job!   finally we see some progress with (scrypt) FPGAs

Hopefully more will come up in the future

It's only a matter of time

You planning on selling these?

Good job, now how much is it and can it mine all the Alt-coin?

Well, you will be disappointed of the price(50$ each).
To gain 1LTC you need atleast 40 pieces, 2000$
You can gain 1 LTC daily with 2x7950 on stock frequency. The equipment will be much cheaper if you choose VGA cards, but they will spent twice power...everyone have to choose his own, I still prefer VGA.
Anyway it is the right way, I hope we we'll see faster FPGA soon. Congrats to the author!

That is really costly, anyway congrats to the creator of this FPGA

Good start on the USB Scrypt mining front, IMO. Might look into getting one in the near future once some spare funds become available, mainly so I can scrypt mine overnight with my Raspberry Pi so I don't consume so much power by leaving my PC on instead.

Thank you!
Indeed, the price for usb dongle is closer to 2$/Khs, all costs with components and the rest are added to one chip only.
The 8 cores board is around 1$/Khs (and the other product I have ready).

This guy is a piece of shit...

A psychopat king of scam !

[d57heinz]

Thought I’d resurrect this since everyone thinks this is new lmao. Too bad this guy turned out to be a big piece of shit of crypto. Scammed us all on a cloud mining operation. I suppose now since he did produce this it was feasible then and is now.  Don’t be fooled those that are in the know have been mining these for 5 years or more. Quit falling for the trap. Mining fdecebtralization is good as dead
