You mean 5-10x performance for the same power consumption as a GPU is a joke ?
Well you have some particular sense of humor
Crypto space is too dynamic. Timing is everything. I was mining Bytom with GPU from the very beginning of mainnet. Now difficulty is higher and I'm holding long term what I mined. Did You do the same with FPGA?
As I like to be diversified (CPU, GPU, ASIC, trading), I would enter FPGA mining if I see realized plans of having number of developers interested, publishing algos fast enough and competing with fees over miners.
FPGA for home miner will be used for established coin on established algo.
Developpers who work for themselves can produce the bitstream and mine without publishing their work and can adapt to new algorithm faster.
