Antminer: Bitmain's ASIC miners in FARMGOD
Antminer is Bitmain's line of ASIC miners and the most widespread one. Which Antminers FARMGOD supports, on which firmware, and what you can do with them from the dashboard.
Antminer is the name of the ASIC miners Bitmain builds. Most farms run them, and the model name tells what a machine mines:
- S and T series: SHA-256, for Bitcoin.
- L series: Scrypt, for Litecoin and Dogecoin.

- K7: Eaglesong.
- Z series: Equihash, for Zcash.
Many models also come as hydro or immersion versions.
