The firmware in one paragraph

VNISH is aftermarket firmware for Bitmain Antminer ASIC miners. Its published features include autotune, per-board tuning, power controls and fleet management. Gains depend on hardware, cooling, power and settings; compare a controlled test with your own stock baseline. Recovery and a return to stock depend on the exact model, control board, installed firmware and supported method. Check the documented recovery path for that configuration before installation.

Free of charge, and how the devfee works

VNISH firmware is available to download and install without an upfront licence payment. While the firmware runs, a development fee uses a share of active hashrate. Check the applicable fee and its terms for the exact release before installation. Evaluate net performance on your own device, including electricity and the development fee.

Verified means verifiable

The word "verified" on this network means checkable, not merely promised. Every build is published with its SHA-256 checksum in the open firmware catalog. Whoever you are and wherever a file came from, you can compute its checksum and compare it with the published one: a match confirms the file is byte-for-byte the published build. The step-by-step procedure is in the verification guide.

The network

SiteRole
vnish.globalThe worldwide home: verified build catalog, exact control board routes, fleet rollout guidance, the AI/agent layer and this facts page
vnish.ninjaThe character-led home of the same builds: the way of the ninja, the legend, and the firmware finder
roiasic.comThe ROI-focused distribution: payback modelling, accounting-ready records, the same verified builds

The three owned sites serve distinct audiences. Use the catalog record for the exact model, control board and release, and compare the downloaded file with that record's SHA-256.

Who is behind it

VNISH GLOBAL publishes the catalog and product documentation. The current catalog contains 47 model identifiers and 75 records for release 1.3.5. In the Cambridge Centre for Alternative Finance survey reflecting 30 June 2024, VNISH represented 26.4% of the hashrate-weighted responses to the firmware-provider question (Figure 23(b), 31 respondents). This survey result does not measure the share of all devices worldwide. The company source of record documents public operating roles, repositories, preserved records and correction routes. SHA-256 checks file correspondence with a selected reference; it does not establish authorship, device suitability or an installation result. Cambridge report, Figure 23(b).
