Topic: Idea of Bitcoin mining simulator (Read 212 times)

maybe because there isn't that much to bitcoin mining to build a simulator about. in your example about PC builder, there is a lot of components about a PC and assembling one is a tough thing to do for the first timers as there are a lot of steps and a lot of components.
with bitcoin mining there is 1 ASIC that you connect and start mining with a small initial setup.

your idea could work with building GPU mining rigs. but the problem is that it becomes hyped from time to time when altcoins are pumping then it becomes boring to the point that nobody is interested in it anymore.

More likely I mean a game that will be similar of PC Building Simulator.

There are some of you who likes simulator games but also there are some of them who use them for getting better knowledge around thing. Example of this can be a car vehicle simulator where you learn how to repair damaged car and etc, it can't turn you into professional but it can significantly boost your knowledge.
Another example and most connected to our subject is PC Building Simulator. This game can help you to build your own computer, upgrade it, change and repair damaged components, you can even test benchmark of your built pc. This game has gained popularity among people, it has up to 700K download and developers have partnered with serious companies that includes: Intel, Nvidia, Asus, AMD and etc. Personally I really suggest you to check this game.

So I feel a little bit curious, why has no one ever thought of creating similar game on mining? Bitcoin minig simulator or let it be just mining simulator where you'll be able to get used to bitcoin mining via ASICs, altcoins mining via GPU, CPU and HDD, how to overclock motherboard for mining, which component will suit different types of GPUs, what will be the most cost effective and profitable combination and etc.

This would not only support awareness of bitcoin but also could be a very profitable project. You can easily become partner of Bitmain, Bitfury, Baikal, Nvidia, AMD and other companies. This isn't a project that can fail because just see number of miners in past (and possibly in future after halving), a lot of people, even those who had no idea of mining, bought GPUs and ASICs and started to mine, some of them failed because of no knowledge.

Just shared this idea with you guys, will be glad if this really gains attention.
