ESP-Miner-Bonanza v0.1.0-beta.1

ESP-Miner-Bonanza v0.1.0-beta.1

First beta release artifact set for Bitaxe Bonanza board 1002.

Supported feature summary

Feature	Status	Notes
Four-chip BZM2 mining	🟢 Working	All four ASICs and 944 engines run at the fixed production profile of 800 MHz and a 2.8 V board rail.
Stratum V1 and V2	🟢 Working	Primary and fallback pools, encrypted Stratum V2 transport, share submission, and recovery are supported.
Bonanza startup and safety supervision	🟢 Working	Bridge compatibility, safe-off ownership, power sequencing, runtime fault handling, and controlled restart are enforced.
Bonanza health dashboard	🟡 Partially working	Bonanza Miner Health, hashrate, shares, pool state, and ASIC/engine diagnostics work. Some legacy generic power, heat, fan, and chart fields are not populated.
Wi-Fi, mDNS, and Swarm discovery	🟢 Working	Setup, .local access, discovery, device listing, remote settings, restart, and identify are available.
Scoreboard and logs	🟢 Working	Highest-difficulty shares, live WebSocket logs, filtering, and log downloads are available.
ESP firmware and AxeOS OTA	🟢 Working	esp-miner.bin and www.bin can be uploaded through AxeOS or the HTTP API.
RP2040 bridge update and blank-bridge recovery	🟢 Working	Manifested raw bridge images are programmed and read-back verified over onboard SWD.
Pause and resume mining	🔴 Not yet working	The API changes the AxeOS flag but does not stop or restart the Bonanza controller and work dispatcher.
Frequency targeting	🔴 Not yet implemented	This beta uses a fixed 800 MHz target. Runtime frequency target selection is planned for a future release.
Voltage tuning	🔴 Not supported	Board 1002 remains locked to its validated 2.8 V board rail.
Automatic and manual fan control	🔴 Not supported	The Bonanza safety controller currently requires the bridge-controlled fan to remain at 100%.
On-device display	🔴 Not yet working	Board 1002 routes display SCL/SDA to ESP32-S3 GPIO6/GPIO7, while this firmware initializes its I²C bus on GPIO48/GPIO47. AxeOS exposes display settings, but the board-specific display pin/bus path is not implemented or validated.
Bonanza-aware latest-release lookup	🔴 Not yet working	AxeOS still queries the upstream ESP-Miner release feed and must not be used to select Bonanza firmware.
