Thanks! I used the orange pi pc fel tester [1] and gradually lowered the clock speed until it became stable. When I got to 696 MHz the test ran for more than 3 hours without problems.

The H3 CPU has a small bootloader inside, that enumerated the SD card and eMMC to look for a user-made bootloader. IIRC it looks for some file inside of the file system, and loads it to 0x70000. Thus you can customize it if you have enough time :)

But you (theoretically) cannot know who mined the coin, or who is actually the holder of the coin, thus the anonymity. Though currently this is getting restricted as governments require more ID verification from businesses dealing with crypto, which links up your coin to a real person.

Sometimes Discord is still pretty helpful with real-time support. It indeed has its flaws, but some of the best real time help is still given there. I love the C++ discord, it's just filled with gems.

Hope this doesn't end up political... Last time the entire Framework Discord's mod team went on strike because of a controversial sponsorship, and ended with the closure of the discord.

After getting quite a lot of emails asking to buy one last time - I've put my Icepi onto Crowd Supply!

This is a dev board that carries an ECP5 FPGA, and has a raspberry pi zero footprint. It also has a few improvements! Notably the 2 USB-B ports are replaced with 3 USB-C ports, and it has additional indicator LED and buttons.

This board can output HDMI, read from a uSD, use a SDRAM and much more. I'm very proud the product of multiple months of work.

It is also completely open source! Check out the source on github: https://github.com/cheyao/icepi-zero
