Voskcoin calls out 1 of these people behind this thread/buy ''may'' be unethical. He actually compares these people to Bitconnect.

Says her name is, ''Kristy-Leigh Minehan''.

How many companies can 1 person have time for?
-FPGA Land
-Mineority
-Oh God Girl...ETHlargement
-Acorn
-Now Bitcoin Interest?

Who on this forum has 5 jobs and are passionate about them all? Haven't seen her promoting the original 1525 order. Seems like they have moved on.

Hope everyone who wants refunds on their 1525, 3 grand order get it. They are getting close to their deadline...  

Research=Knowledge.





You’re talking about one of the hardest working, non stop moving individuals I have ever met.

That said - SQRL is my company, the 1525s are a joint venture between AllMine (senseless) and SQRL. SQRL and the Mineority storefront are operating jointly because it makes no sense to have duplicative efforts for 3 different shopping carts.

Mineority hosting is run by a whole team, that are under Kristy but largely autonomous.

Bitcoin Interest is something I personally have no knowledge of or involvement with, but I don’t know why anyone would fault Kristy for working on that project.

Kristy makes $0 from and has zero reason to support 1525s, outside of the tiny amount of Mineority hosting revenue, yet she has devoted tremendous time and energy to them and to working with Xilinx and helping to resolve the delay, because it helps the community and helps us.

If you want to find a scape goat for a scam I really recommend looking for someone else that hasn’t actively gone above and beyond to help a ton of people.

FPGALand is a joint venture with SQRL and Allmine. I'm majority owner of Allmine.
The Acorn is a SQRL product.

If you get such basic facts wrong, what else did you get wrong?

Hello, when will be new algo released for VCU?
Thanks

If you register your VCU (send a video mining 0xBitcoin to [email protected]), you will receive the confidential bitstream launch schedule for the next 6 algorithms.

Doomed to see the future and unable to prevent it
It's alive!  The board is mining the first time!!!

All 4 FPGAs are up. It takes 4 FPGAs to achieve one 9p Xilinx FPGA.
I assume miners do not care how many FPGAs are on board as long as the size/cost is lower, and the power consumption is lower.  

Keccak algorithm is currently un-optimized
Running air cooled
Mining 0xBTC at 8.6Gh/s to 9GH/s
Current draw: approx. 80Watt.
So at 13 GH/s it would be approx. 120-130 Watt? How could you achieve so much better Hash/watt ratio than VCU1525 using VU9P FPGA even with un-optimized bitstream?
VCU running 13 GH/s 0x bitstream is taking 200 watts.

Makes sense it would run more efficient if more chips were splitting the workload one one board. I would assume they could be clocked up higher and that hash would scale in a similar fashion.

You would expect something like this type of curve.

I have a question ...

i Have a rig with only 8gpu on it .. still have 4 slot empty .. can i had 4x Acorn CLE 101 on the empty slot and get 60% more hashrate on ethash with my rx 580 8gb ? or 1 maximum by rig ?

what is this "brake pedal" you speak of?
Wait so it takes 4 and costs between 2-3.5k each?

 i think he meant all 4 fpgas on the card are up and hashing.  it has 4 fpgas per card, and that the card was 2-3k. of course i could be wrong heh.

looks clean enough, mainly fpgas with a minimum of glue logic and power components. the future of fpga mining.

Our next generation of product will be using either a more powerful Altera FPGA or a Xilinx FPGA.
Been working closely with Arrow and Avnet. Building FPGA miners are difficulty due to the expensive FPGA chip pricing!
Open for suggestions and  discussions.

BTCAnother newly developed FPGA Miner is here!

I got a new FPGA miner.

It's based on four Altera FPGA. (Arria 10 10AX066K4F4013SG)

Hardware is fully tested and functional.

I have yet tested it with bitstream.

Here is the picture:  https://imgur.com/a/qotLRcU

I am hoping the community can show me how to write bitstream and mining software for it.

After it is fully tested, I am planning to manufacture and sell it within North America only for now thru a website.

Depending on the response, I will fabricate around 20 to 100 pieces in total for the first batch.

Price: I have not fully done calculating the BOM and PCB cost yet. I think it might be between $2000 to $3500 (to be confirmed).  

Hasing rate and power draw: I expect it will be lesser power consumption compare to the VCU1525 and has about the same hashrate ( to be tested)
 

I am hoping I can help out a bit in the mining community by producing a more accessible hardware to our community.  

what next...
My next step is hoping I can create an FPGA miner based on Xilinx FPGA and the retail price target of $300 to $1000 (feasible?)


The A10 will be no where near the same hashrate as a 9p. Maybe half if you're lucky.

FYI guys, the most likely failure point will be the Ball Grid Array (BGA) connection.

Yeah I would be extremely surprised to see the chip fail.  These, from what I know, are work horses.  They dont fail.
