NiceHash Firmware - Antminer L9 and L7 now supported!
We are happy to introduce an extended ASIC support for NiceHash Firmware. Antminer L7 and Antminer L9 are now supported!
With custom NiceHash firmware, you can take complete control of your Antminer L7 and L9 and get paid in Bitcoin for Scrypt mining on NiceHash!
Additionally, the newly released NiceHashTools now supports Linux, Mac, and Windows, allowing firmware installation across all three operating systems.

Why choose NiceHash Firmware for your Scrypt ASICs?
NiceHash Firmware is a custom firmware for Bitmain's Antminer devices, powered by MARA, designed to provide advanced optimization features and unlock additional mining potential. With the new Antminer L7 and L9 support, miners can benefit from:
- Advanced overclocking & undervolting – Fine-tune your hardware for maximum performance.
- Low fees - 1.4% when mining on NiceHash and 2% when mining on 3rd party pool.
- Hotel fee (hashrate split) - Split the hashrate between up to three different pools based on percentage.
- Built-in curtailment API support - Control your machines with custom-built APIs.
