ASIC Bitcoin Mining Unit Creation Hardware and Software
Budget: £750 – £1,500 GBP
Bitcoin ASIC Mining Unit Development (Hardware + Firmware + Mining Software Integration)
Project Description
We are building a new Bitcoin ASIC mining unit and we are looking for an experienced engineer or team who can handle both hardware and software development.
This is a serious hardware + firmware + mining integration project, not a basic app or website.
We need someone who understands how ASIC mining systems work, including:
ASIC chip control and configuration
Hashboard/controller development
Firmware development for mining operation
Mining pool (Stratum) integration
Performance monitoring + stability systems
Scope of Work
The selected freelancer will be responsible for:
Hardware / Mining Controller Work
Help design and/or integrate a controller system for ASIC hashboards
Communication with ASIC chips (via control interfaces used in miners)
Power, thermal, fan, and sensor integration support
System bring-up and debugging
Firmware / Low-Level Software Development
Develop firmware to control ASIC chips (clocking, voltage tuning, initialization, work distribution)
Control fan speed + temperature protection logic
Implement watchdog + auto-recovery mechanisms
Optimize stability and performance
BTC Mining Software Integration
Integrate with mining pools using Stratum protocol
Handle work reception, nonce processing, share submission
Support pool failover, reconnect logic, and worker configuration
Monitoring & Management
Provide a web UI or API for:
Hashrate reporting
Temperature and fan monitoring
Error logs
Device status and uptime
Configuration management
Skills Required
We are looking for someone with proven experience in:
Bitcoin ASIC miners (real mining hardware experience required)
Embedded Linux firmware development
C / C++ (required), Python/Go optional
Hardware communication protocols (SPI / I2C / UART)
Stratum mining pool communication
Debugging real hardware (bring-up, stability testing)
Bonus (strong advantage):
Experience with existing miner firmware platforms (cgminer forks / custom stacks)
FPGA experience (if needed for prototyping)
PCB design knowledge (Altium/KiCad)
Deliverables
ASIC mining firmware/controller software
Working pool connection + share submission
Stable hashrate operation with safety protections
Monitoring API/dashboard
Logs + error handling + recovery system
Full documentation + setup instructions
Source code delivered via Git repository
Testing results (24–72 hours stability test)
Questions for Applicants (Required)
Please answer these when applying:
Have you worked on a real ASIC Bitcoin miner project before? Share details.
Which firmware stack would you recommend (custom vs modified miner firmware) and why?
What controller architecture do you suggest for ASIC hashboards?
What is your estimated timeline + cost for a working prototype?
How will you test stability, temperature safety, and performance?
