What do you guys think?

I got a raspberry pi that I bought from my school (around $35) and it's sitting here at my house. I didn't want to spend some money on FPGAs since I still need my PC to run 24/7, but now I just thought about something. Can I use my raspberry pi and an FPGA to get me some bitcoins? If so amazing!


Thank you.

PS. Also post if you already have a setup like this on I want to make.
Unlike traditional banking where clients have only a few account numbers, with Bitcoin people can create an unlimited number of accounts (addresses). This can be used to easily track payments, and it improves anonymity.

Yes you can mine on FPGA's using a RaspberryPi but you will have to compile the mining software from source code.

Yes Smiley That's what I plan on doing when my RPi gets delivered in May.
