Hello people,
I've had an interest in the hardware side of Bitcoin, manly the ASICs they use, what I wanted to do is attempt to get some discrete logic and slap together my own bitcoin core calculation.
The problem is, I really don't understand the logic of bitcoin calculation, so I can't just attempt to layout a boolean logic map.
Since you can calculate it by hand (pencil and paper
linky link)
and there is a Spreadsheet calculation for SHA256 (
Sha256 on Spreadsheet in google docs.) which I can just follow.
Now I have posted this in the Beginner section since, well, I'm new at these forums and this concept, I'm not new at soldering, or even playing with SMDs and a hot air iron. and I'm happy to spend the time soldering 100s of 1000s discrete components on some proto board, but can I get a hand though this please?
