Custom Litecoin Mining ASIC Development -- 2
Budget: ₹12,500 – ₹37,500 INR
Expert
I’m looking for an experienced ASIC engineer or hardware consultant to help develop a custom low-power ASIC chip designed to mine the Kaspa cryptocurrency, which uses the kHeavyHash algorithm.
The goal is to create a compact, USB-powered miner (similar in concept to Bitaxe for Bitcoin), intended for hobbyists and solo miners. The project will be fully open-source, and we are building both the ASIC and supporting control board (likely with an ESP32 or STM32 microcontroller).
I’m a non-technical founder leading this initiative, and I need someone who can:
• Advise on or create the ASIC design (based on the open Kheav Hash spec)
• Suggest or manage FPGA prototyping (if needed)
• Prepare the design for low-volume fabrication (ideally <5W–50W power budget)
• Work with or provide input for PCB/control board integration
The ideal candidate will have experience with:
• Crypto mining ASICs (Bitcoin, Ethereum, or altcoin mining chips)
• FPGA-to-ASIC transitions (helpful but not required)
• Low-power chip design and Stratum/miner protocol integration
This is an exciting opportunity to help launch the first open-source Kaspa ASIC miner and potentially contribute long-term as the project scales.
I can provide an existing ASIC mining chip, which you can reverse engineer if that helps.
What’s the delivery time on the completed unit and specs, so I can go away and manufacture?
