De-Eveling BitMain with BraiinsOS
summary
Braiins OS is an open-source Linux distribution that replaces stock miner firmware, adding per-chain frequency/voltage overclocking, an API for advanced monitoring, and signed packages via opkg for bulk device updates. With overt AsicBoost enabled by default it claims 13% energy savings. The system supports S9/T1/S15-class devices, demonstrates successful flashing where factory signed firmware locks SSH, and preserves user control by allowing custom images while protecting package integrity.
