I self modded the thread. I will simply delete nasty attacks on each other about the good or bad of asics vs gpus vs fpgas.

I want focus to be on how to survive the shift.

...

My position is the industry needs to be widespread as possible to create demand for coins.

This year I am no longer focusing on what gear to use.

But how to expand my cheap reliable power.

...

I'm late to the party, but very glad to see the thread continue.  I like the idea of focusing on how to lower power costs (solar, tweaks).  I also see another round for home/smallish miners based on the FGPA threads.  Costs more to enter the game than it used to, but avoids the, 'I bought a Bitmain toaster than doesn't actually make $800 a day.'

So if there are pioneers here on the FGPA wagon, would love to hear their insights over the next few months.

well  there is the fpga thread

my issue is  the op is talking 4%  development fee that never ends.

I have to depend on him for software.

I have almost zero skill coding.

I don't think it will be mainstream enough.
