Whatsminer: MicroBT's ASIC miners in FARMGOD
Whatsminer is MicroBT's line of SHA-256 miners. FARMGOD knows every hardware revision by name and brings the Whatsminer's own tools to the dashboard.
Whatsminer is the line of SHA-256 miners MicroBT builds: next to the Antminer, the machine most farms are built on.
One model, many revisions
MicroBT sells one model name in many hardware revisions, and the revision code is part of the name. Two machines called M60S+ can be different hardware with different specs. A monitoring system that only knows "M60S+" compares both with the wrong numbers.
FARMGOD keeps every revision under its own name. The scan recognises the revision that really stands in the rack, and "under spec" means under that machine's own spec.
Supported families
M20 and M21, M30, M31, M32, M33 and M36, M50, M53 and M56, M60, and the liquid-cooled M63, M66 and M73, each with its S, S+ and S++ versions and their revisions. The M63 and M73 lines are hydro-cooled, the M66 is built for immersion.

A custom firmware of our own
A Whatsminer runs MicroBT's stock firmware, or ours: the FarmGod firmware lets you overclock and underclock a Whatsminer, to follow the market with the machines you have.
Getting started
FARMGOD Cloud is free for up to five miners, with no time limit. Sign up, start FARMGOD.OS on a spare PC in your miners' network and run a scan: your Whatsminers appear on your dashboard. Get started shows the three steps. For a whole farm, a Private VPS brings every feature on a server of your own: see the pricing.
