Bad ass!
I am going to attempt this when I get home!
Topic: (POC) PSP Bitcoin Miner - page 2. (Read 5512 times)
You sir are the definition of an entrepreneur!
What hash rate are you seeing?
ATM 35K, but hopefully with the use of the ME(Media Engine, aka a nother 32bit cpu on the PSP) and the VFPU I could push ~100K 
What hash rate are you seeing?
Wow. I wish I kept my PSP. What speeds do you get on such a tiny and slow CPU?
Edit: Nevermind. Found it. X3 Still cool.

Hey Guys,
My name is Alex and the other day I got bored and decided to start creating a Bitcoin miner for the PSP! For those of you who don't know what a PSP is look here-> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PlayStation_Portable_hardware
So atm it can connect to a pool, get work, hash the work, submit the work and repeat all the steps over again (It has some issues with submitting the correct work, see video)
Here is a little video of it working->http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4VOJLgWY7No
I'm looking for others to start to help me with this project. So if anyone is interested, let me know by posting below and I'll put up a git repo for us all to use.
I would like to also work on coding the sha256 hash to use the onboard ME(Media Engine) and VFPU. So if anyone has skills in asm coding with a mips chip, let me know.
Happy Coding!
Alex
