progranism / Open-Source-FPGA-Bitcoin-Miner

A completely open source implementation of a Bitcoin Miner for Altera and Xilinx FPGAs. This project hopes to promote the free and open development of FPGA based mining solutions and secure the future of the Bitcoin project as a whole. A binary release is currently available for the Terasic DE2-115 Development Board, and there are compile-able projects for numerous boards.

fpgaminer_top.v

you have a long compare each time round the loop

// Stop hashing if we've run out of nonces to check else if (nonce2 == 32'hFFFFFFFF)

modify nonce2 to make it 1 bit longer, then change the above to a test for a single high end bit, this will take the logic from a 32 bit compare chain to a 1 bit compare chain... it should push the rate up.

Thanks for your help . The only way I'm making bit coins at the moment is sitting on sites for certain amount of time . I learnt some programming in 1995 when I knew it was going to be big . Gutter I didn't stick with it . I know there is code out there to copy and paste so I can use all the pc,s in the world to mine for us . Still looking for the yellow brick road . Paul

I'm afraid you have missed the (Get rich quick) boat on Bitcoin

Mind you so did I….. and I'm still kicking myself.

With my current FPGA 2GH/S kit, Its making $10USD a day……

and still there are idiots on Bitcointalk, thinking they are going to retire just because they have strung a couple of Cyclone V together (but it MUST be good because it is 28nm tech…..)

To be honest you would be better throwing some low cost FPGA together because the KC7 range is a killer of a price.

What would be useful, would be a way to plug these into one of the more advanced mining software program (Luke-JR) because the python really does suck for throughput……..
