Summary

This release brings a major improvement to hashrate reporting: instead of relying only on share-based estimates, the miner now reads the hardware hash counter registers directly from BM1366, BM1368, and BM1370 chips. This means the displayed hashrate is instantly accurate, without waiting ten minutes for the short-term average or even a full day for the long-term estimate.

On top of that, we added a one-minute hashrate metric to InfluxDB for finer monitoring, and the device now tracks duplicate shares to give better insight into stability and pool communication.

Pool compatibility has also improved with support for extranonce subscription, which is required for services like Nicehash.

For alerting, a Discord webhook can now notify you whenever a block is found, and the found block variable is also exported on the info endpoint for external integrations.

Under the hood, networking stability has been improved by backporting a more mature connection.c from the Bitaxe ESP-Miner, fixing several long-standing issues.

Finally, the BTC price ticker is working again, and the ESP-IDF has been updated from 5.3 to 5.3.3.
