I just received my odroid-hc2 and thinking to try mining by using this arm single board. But I failed to compile hodlminer-wolf.

Error message =

Code:

In file included from cpu-miner.c:41:0:
hodl.h:5:23: fatal error: x86intrin.h: No such file or directory
#include
^
compilation terminated.

hodlminer does not support arm CPU? Or anyone know the solution? Thanks!

Right, hodlminer does not support arm. There is cpu multi miner for arm, but it does not supports hodl algorithm, since it is, how to say, not very popular.

There is cpuminer-opt for linux, which supports hodl, but.....
Requirements:

1. A x86_64 architecture CPU with a minimum of SSE2 support.

Thanks, too bad that I can't test ROI mining with my odroid...

Apart from the nerd factor, I don't see the point of mining on ARM, the code is open source and on github so your welcome to play with it.

I can tell you some points. Not everybody with PC on the table is going to run it 24/7 just for ROI mining (unless they are so called "nerds"). If it is desktop - it can be noisy. Sometimes PCs can sit near place where people sleep, etc. Better situation with work/office PCs, people will use them (probably) 1/3 of the time. Situation with ARM is another - they can sit and calculate hashes 24/7 without any problem, since most of them don't have fans, thus not making noise. Another point is that performance (kh/Watt ratio) of ARM CPUs is usually several times higher, so small Pi3, doing 12h/s 24/7 would do about the same work as "weak" novadays x86 CPU working 8 hours/day using less energy.
