dolphs Posted April 17, 2020 Posted April 17, 2020 Ah that is why I was unable to find current and dev branches, thanks for clarifying Igor

I use mine for mining still going strong all 10 of them in a cluster. 1
FeFarming Posted August 14, 2020 Posted August 14, 2020 Hello, I never mined anything before, but after I ve read some articles I ve become very interested in finding out more about mining with ARM boards. https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/more-efficient-mining-raspberry-pi-julien-delorme/ and https://climbers.net/sbc/nanopi-fire3-arm-supercomputer/ Please give me a hint: -A ruff estimate of how much crypto ( equivalent in USD ) I will mine in a month with 10 x NanoPI Fire3 boards ? -Do you know a better board for this task than NanoPI Fire3 ?

They're the only ones that have more performance than this SoC. I've got the NanoPC T3+ with this SoC. Single core performance isn't great. But multi-core it is amazing. Faster than the RK3399.

The Odroid N2+ is one of the most energy efficient SBCs around. When maxed out on CPUs it only consumes 6W. Most others need double of that for half the performance. These days mining isn't done on computer hardware but on specialized hardware. So with a few SBCs you can't compete with these ASICs. But if you use solar power then you've got the big advantage that you don't need to pay for energy costs. What's the biggest cost for ASICs. If you really want to do this, then do your research well. Else it's a probable moneypit. But at least you can enjoy the SBCs. Greetings. 2
legogris Posted August 14, 2020 Posted August 14, 2020 Yeah, mining is competitive enough today that you either need an edge (e.g. subsidized electricity) or spend a lot of time on optimization to do better than break-even. Especially true since some are even happy mining at a loss (e.g. circumventing currency regulation or money laundering). You could still look into staking, though - Ethereum is migrating away from PoW(mining) to PoS (staking) and there are already Tezos, Cardano, Cosmos and others. The good news is that a decent SBC or two should be good enough for that.
