Will the Buttcoin miners buy up all the Xbox One X's to mine buttcoins?
it's etherium not buttcoins.

no, asics still out perform xbox one x's on a price to mining power ratio significantly
>>61067403
do GPUs out perform them? no, not even close
so why the fuck are people buying GPUs
>>61067423
Etherium is ASIC proof
>>61067423
what
how could they use a xbox?

proof?

That nigger had access to a supercomputer
>>61067223
Wtf is buttcoin?
>>61067403
But you can't mine etherium with asic

Eth is memory reliant and its memory usage increases drastically every epoch.
Bitcoins is simply a cryptographic hash rotation using SHA256; it can easily be performed using ASICs for very little cost and R&D to design/build.
You would need to be able to unlock the software and install software optimized for mining; including dedicated ACPI support and GPU voltage control to optimize the power efficiency of the machine. AFAIK it is possible to install Linux on the PS4 and PS4 Pro, but not yet possible on the XBOX One. It may be possible with a hardmod though, but certainly not economic for miners to do this for every console.

>linux ps4
boy do I call bs on this one

can't be bothered to do a simple search? fuck off

same how tf you use an xbox to bitcoin mine
As long as the dickhead stop killing the gpu market.
