Guided Firmware Selector

Quick answer

The Guided Firmware Selector is a five-question wizard that recommends ASIC mining firmware for your hardware and goals. It matches Bitaxe boards to open AxeOS, and S19/S21-class Antminers to per-chip autotuning firmware such as BraiinsOS+ — the open path to Stratum V2 — or commercial VNish and LuxOS. Dev fees are ranges; flashing carries brick risk.

Answer five short questions and this guide will point you toward a firmware path that fits your goals — with an honest rationale. Custom Antminer firmware builds on the work of projects that opened this space; this tool simply helps you find a sensible starting point. It is educational, not a guarantee — always confirm support for your exact control board before flashing, and remember flashing custom firmware is done at your own risk.

1. Which miner are you running?
2. What is your primary goal?
3. Do you need native Stratum V2?
4. How much do you value open source?
5. What’s your risk tolerance?

Dev-fee figures are ranges quoted as hashrate and can change — check each project’s current terms. Feature notes are grounded in D-Central’s Mining Bible research and reflect publicly documented firmware behaviour as of June 2026.
