I would really like bitmain to bring back a home miner
The world has run out of hosting and you cant run
S9's at home and stay married.
Why cant bitmain keep their promise from a few years
back and make new boards for the old S2's.
Today, I rummaged through the garage and dug
out an old S2, opened it up, blew it out and decided
to run 6 boards in it, to give more space between them.
PSU flashed up nicely, then decided to see how it ran
without the lid on and fans disconnected, it ran too hot.
So reconnected the two intake fans only and put the lid back
on. It is running great, 50 degrees and very quite considering
Now 6 boards/blades with current chips would work
great, probably around 1TH per board, making this a
true home miner, and could do what the earlier miners
do, ie home heating, you could mine at home and
still remain married
I am sure there would be enough demand for the boards
and they should not be too hard to make, and they would
be cheaper to ship and you could buy a few at a time and
get around customs duties as well
Win, Win, Win all round
