This is a very interesting discussion, everyone stands on their own interests, and op just wants to add a way to mine. Let time prove everything.
I am very interested in the economic structure of mining.
Millions of rigs can mine with gpus. So this reduces that or does the market shift? To adjust to this?
I cant see crypto coins succeeding without gpus.
5000 dollar FPGA cards dont cut it if you need 10 x 10 card rigs. 100 x 5000 = 500000 dollars
Where is the driving force to get more of them? If the coin developers dont resist FPGA why should they resist asics? So FPGA will simply be all replaced by asics.
So once again how fast does the op upgrade your FPGA? If a coin switches every month? If it takes 2 weeks your gear costs 2x what you thought it would.
And if the developer say fuck it let asics take over FPGA is not fast enough.
So for this FPGA to work you need just a bit of forks not too many.
This is why I wish the op luck earlier in the thread.
He has to hope both amd and nvidia give up on Mining . Do nothing .
This could happen.
He also needs some resistance from developers ie some forks. But not too many forks.
This could happen.
I can wait and see. My 18x nvidia 1080ti earn more then 40 a day after power . They are paid off.
I could get lucky if forking becomes the norm. As I do see that too many forks make FPGA hard to profit.
