Today I ran a downgrading mining test on an old VIA CPU running at 999 MHz 🖥️.

The goal was to see how far extremely low-end hardware can still go in Duino Coin mining ⛏️.

I tried to compile the fasthash acceleration library 🚀 to improve performance.

❌ Unfortunately, the CPU is simply too old and unsupported for proper acceleration builds.

💡 Average mining hashrate: 57.32 kH/s

That’s roughly equivalent to: ~ 2 ESP8266 devices 😄
