Is using a custom ASIC firmware from BiXBiT free?

Our software for Antminer, Whatsminer is distributed for free. Please keep in mind that custom firmware includes Developers Fee, which is a reward for developers. Usually it is 1.8%-2.8% of the miner’s total hashrate which is automatically deducted during the work of the device.

This tab allows you to disable hash board slots.

It displays the number of slots, the reason for their deactivation (if any), as well as options for automatic board shutdown in case of errors.

[Auto Disable Slots on Errors] – designed for automatic board shutdown. If a board fails to start after exceeding the restart attempt limit (the device reboots N times; if the board does not start, it is disabled).
[Recovery Reboot Counter] – counter of the number of device reboots related to board errors.
[Max Number of Recovery Reboots] – the number of device reboots related to board errors after which the problematic board will be disabled by software.
[Limit Boards Power] – disables the use of power from boards that are turned off or not functioning.
