Since BitNinja version 3.11.6, you can re-activate BitNinja with a new license key without the need for a complete reinstallation using the command:

For uninstallation, please use one of the following commands depending on your server’s OS.
apt-get purge 'bitninja*'Or yum remove 'bitninja*'
Use all of the below commands in the given order to delete the directories mentioned below, so BitNinja will use the new license.
rm -f /var/lib/bitninja/token*
rm -rf /var/lib/bitninja/
rm -rf /etc/bitninja/
Then reinstall BitNinja using the one-liner installation code and your new license key.curl https://get.bitninja.io/install.sh | sudo /bin/bash -s - --license_key=YourLicenseKeyHere --updateChannel=frequent
Keys purchased from our resellers are single-use at a time. This means that any server created with a reseller key must be fully deleted — including from your dashboard — before the key can be reused.
