There are 1/4 chances in round 2, returning results,without continue calculating the data behind, Discarding some nones will result in hundreds of performance gains
You can stop calculating on level 3 (level 2 return result) but question why? neighbour recursions have same 1/4 chance to find full computed nonce. That mean If you stop calculating you just lost partially computed nonce.

About 25,000 fpga cards can work on all algos http://zetheron.com/index.php/fpga-performance-profit/ Several thousand fpga cards already sold by this thread guys + many bought directly. At this moment in public not have profitable firmware and as soon devs will released it - thousands of cards will start mining! I think ROI will be 5-10 years.

Re: DIY FPGA Mining rig for any algorithm with fast ROI
They'd still need expensive software licenses + lots of time and reasonable sets of skills to synthesize + deploy bitstreams for a variety of hardware.
Vivado (webpack/design) tcl console + gcc/cmake, skill not needed just 1-click. Both free.
The devfee depends on the dev, as gpuhoarder eluded to in the previous post... There will likely be many devs coming out with bitstreams and software. Whitefire was just the first to announce. We are considering developing a platform that would allow any dev to develop firmwares for the boards and provide the development environment. The devfee collected on our software would depend on what devfee the dev wanted to set.
I'm also doing this now. And any algo on which they want to earn I'll release on github for free.

Found this product: "BittWares XUPSVH is an UltraScale+ VU33P/35P FPGA-based PCIe card. The UltraScale+ FPGA helps these demanding applications avoid I/O bottlenecks with integrated High Bandwidth Memory (HBM2) tiles on the FPGA that support up to 8 GBytes of memory at 460 GBytes/sec."
Each fpga device requires a unique bitstream. Think about it.

When people buy a few thousand of these fpga cards ROI up to 12 month or longer. During this time bitmain will release new asic's. Our income will depend on how quickly you(mb other dev) add new algorithms for VCU1525 cards.
I think it's safer to buy GTX 1170.

Re: DIY FPGA Mining rig for any algorithm with fast ROI
Yes, the barrier to entry is far greater than any other popular form of mining and, currently, there is no community. That said a couple of members here are starting to have slightly open discussions that it seems even they are realizing benefits themselves in participating.
Like fpga's the work on fpga mining is incredibly parallelized with each person interested having to solve the very same problems everyone else is solving or has already solved. Understandably greed is a stronger motive than the altruism that started the open source projects that this technology stands on the shoulders of.
Ironically, for fpga's that parallelization is what makes them so efficient. The same cannot be said of the lack of community within fpga software development.
You think it will be cost more then monero or what ? It think it will be great.
The price depends on popularity. WhatToMine make huge advertisement to sumo... I think cost will be 100$ in summer 2018, for this we need to talk a lot about sumo and invest to sumo.
