So, the pod miners.
Yes but it's not the same to build his own custom pod

Your USB miner have a nice size/design for this purpose and it's easily swap-able for chip upgrade when are outdated.
De-soldering a SMD 0 ohm resistor or just two pad for cut USB power supply and just add two soldering points for the power supply cables probably not change anything in your PCB design.
It can be really nice for build custom pod

It's just an idea for you
